I don't know if this thread topic is the same as what I'm about to talk about but I watched tv shows which I don't normally do but I was at a girls house who was watching them, and I quickly got fucking annoyed that every single show has excruciatingly good looking people in.
show about ghosts, the ghosts are like models, show about geeks, a lot of the geeks are like models, show about vampires, they're all like models, show about a beast, the beast is like a model. show about rock bands, they all look like models.
Hollyoaks a tv show in the uk is the worst example of this.
But obviously it works for them because it gets the ratings but yeh I agree that it causes body dis satisfaction, not from me because I don't even watch these shows and I like the way I look but because I've seen other studies done on this type of thing. I remember reading it in a book about psychology where it did studies on whole islands of people before and after television was introduced to their community and the levels of eating disorders.

Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
