The misogyny, racism and homophobia are just rampant in this show. It's weird. <br /><br />As much as I love LoVe and Logan, in particular, I do really believe that it's only due to Jason's charm. If he were played by anyone else who couldn't pull off the swagger, I would probably loathe him. I was all set to in the first season until Jason won me over and I couldn't help but love him but really? He's actually pretty awful sometimes. <br /><br />While I try to justify that the characters being the most racist/sexist/homophobic are clearly the bad guys, the lines are played for laughs and there is no comeuppance or character growth or even much of a reaction from people who the lines are directed at. So, it's either really lazy shorthand for "these guys bad because they say mean things" or worse, it's the writers thought the joke was funny and hid it behind "but these characters are supposed to be awful" ala Dads and just no. <br /><br />That being said, I still love this show.
