| Chaz Bono |
This Monday, September 19th,
Dancing With The Stars begins its new season on
ABC-TV. The show is famous for bring hype to new heights. This year they have really outdone themselves. They signed
Chaz Bono to dance. First, is Chaz a star? Probably. He's the offspring of Sonny & Cher Bono. He is an author, musician, producer, etc. The controversy is that Chaz was born, 42 years ago, as a female. Chaz is in the final stages of becoming a man. Some people don't think that a responsible network should showcase a trans gender person. There is some anger, here. Remedy is simple: Don't watch the show and don't allow your kids to watch, either.
If this is a non-issue, watch or don't watch as you will.
My thoughts? (Yawn) Please consider that I grew up watching
"Father Knows Best" and
"The Donna Reed Show." Dancing With The Stars is doing a masterful job of hyping their show. Really! They should get some recognition for making a potentially boring program exciting. Using a somewhat famous trans gender figure to get ratings?
Damn, TV sure has come a long way!
