1. If a couple takes a vow of chastity, the male half will invariably cheat, a violent fight will occur, they will reconcile and the female half will break her chastity vow. A variant: the female half exacts revenge by sleeping with a close relation of the male half.
2. If someone throws a house party, someone will get punched in the face and be charged with a DUI.
3. If you lose your virginity and don’t fit the type outlined above, it’s to a complete stranger and/or while drunk.
4. If the star goes on a road trip, they will be mugged/carjacked/run out of gas/and/or meet a stranger who imparts a worldview that causes the protagonist to return home immediately and pursue option 1.
5. Nobody ever drinks pints. It’s always bottles or cans.
6. When a major couple spat occurs, it is always in a packed 4-star restaurant.
7. When you get pregnant, it’s preferable to keep this information to yourself, or better yet, tell an elaborate lie about it.
8. It’s never acceptable to log off your email account, especially if there is a plot to be advanced.
9. People never die instantly, but linger on in hospital long enough for those cast members whose contracts have already been renewed by network executives, to assemble at their bedside.
10. Fatherly talks are good, but no life lesson is more taken to heart than a night spent inside a) hospital b) the drunk tank c) someone attractive.
i disagree with #5…on How I Met your Mother the main characters are constantly drinking pints at their local bar.
What shows do you consider bad television?
I knew if I kept watching television I would get that Higher Education they’re always talking about..
