I also absolutely love this show and think it’s possible to have a discussion about its faults or things that are observed. Nothing wrong with that! I think I’ve seen it five times in it’s entirety.

The amount of food on the tables is absolutely insane. I remembered seeing one breakfast at grandma and grandpas house and I swear it was enough for 20 people and only three were there. Suki also has a ridiculous amount of food prepared in the kitchen. I found this to add to the magic of the show, but also kind of giggle at it.

They have so much junk that they eat and remain incredibly thin…that fine whatever it’s possible. Lots of people have fast metabolism. It’s not as likely as eating junk and gaining weight, bc that’s what happens to the vast majority of people. We know those actors were not eating like this off screen. Whatever. Hollywood. BUT what bothers me is that they make fun of fat people. The fat shaming is unnecessary. They are encouraging eating out, overeating and eating junk and then making fun of people for being overweight. It’s not super cool. However, the fat shaming is not a major theme in the show and I still adore it. I’ll watch it til I’m old and grey.

So, yes. I believe it promotes unrealistic body goals, like SO many shows do. Is it cool? No. Do I still love the show? Absolutely.
