and that happy endings and perfect people are few and far between in real life, and very formulaic in entertainment . . . but hey, that's only my opinion . . .
(http://uasblognet.blogspot.com/2014/04/5-things-wrong-with-ally-mcbeal.html)
". . . Ally McBeal is one of the most irritating and offensive female characters to have her own series.
Here are five reasons why:
1 She is unprofessional. . . She continuously wears short skirts, saying she wants people to see her lovely legs, and in one episode it puts her jail. . .
2 Her emotional insecurity gets the better of her in a grotesque fashion. When she finds her boyfriend (Robert Downey Jr) casually having ice cream with his ex wife, she hilariously tips the vanilla cream, chocolate sauce and whipped cream all over him. . .
3 She is slightly homophobic. . . when she begins to to date a man who later reveals that he is openly bisexual. Unable to get rid of the flashes of him naked with other men and she promptly breaks up with him. . .
4 The thin epidemic, which happened sometime in the 90s, required all of the leading ladies in the series to be super thin. . . resulted in emotional, psychological and physical damage for the women in the cast. . .
5 The Times Magazine cover. On June 29, 1998, Time Magazine issued its cover with pictures of Gloria Stienem, Betty Frieden and Susan B. Anthony in black and white and Ally McBeal in color with the sideline "Is Feminism Dead?" Funnily enough, in the second season, Ally has a dream in which she is chosen to be on the cover of Time Magazine as the "face of feminism". . ."
