I never watched Ally McBeal

Even though a then-girlfriend of mine tried to convince me how fantastic it was, I always fell asleep mentally. A lethargic main character, an all-brown atmosphere with a lot of law people who never seemed to work but, instead, acted stupid while trying to be funny...the yawning horror. No wonder, the series was written by a man (=sexist).
The only thing that caught my attention was how thin everyone was getting, and at one point, I just figured that the bottle of beer Ally was sipping had to be about 210 calories - a whole meal for a borderline anorexic!
Sadly, I 'd only just started to walk on thin ice by then.
So, not to pile on the pounds, you needed to be a perfect actresse who wouldn't mess around and make it possible to shoot this scene only once. Or otherwise get fat, lose your job, land on the street, sleep under a bridge and eat dirt.
Ally didn't have to care about all that, she was naturally thin.
I, however, swore to myself I never wanted to become a puppet in the showbusiness but try everything in the world to get a real job as a scientist or something. Simply nothing in front of a camera where people stare at you all of the time.  

What I long to see is a team of women lawyers unbound and free from any men's evil spell, who put to shame real criminals: rapists, pedopriests, dictators, terrorists, because they fairly deserve it. Like the Nuremberg trial. This would be real fun!
