(1,459 posts)But as someone who actually watched the show BEFORE all the hate, I can say this woman (Juanita Jean) had obviously never seen the show.
First quote from the article - "Have you ever seen a person of color on that show? No, you have not." Almost every show, Phils biracial grandson is shown.
Quote #2 - "And how do women have a say in family matters? By hoochy only." - Like all other sitcoms on the air this past decade, the woman are the ones in charge in the marriages. If the wife says jump, each and every Robertson male says "how high". Again just like every other sitcom out there today.
Quote #3 - "And why does that one brother never appear on the show? Uh, maybe hes in the closet?" - The one brother, which the others all affectionately call the black sheep of the family, is the family unbearded Pastor. So although a Pastor I suppose, could be "in the closet" I highly doubt it in this case.
As I said, I watched the show BEFORE the article came out, and I am not defending what was said in the interview. I probably won't watch it again, but when putting out a screed like juanitajean.com did, you would think she should have watched the show? Otherwise it is just another person jumping on the band wagon, not unlike Sarah Palin who admitted she never read the interview before opening her big mouth.
Carry on........
