The Cocks Are Alright - The Skanks Less So

In Tuesday's episode of the above average medical drama House, there was a scene involving a cock fight. Following the show, there was the obligatory disclaimer that no animals were harmed in the filming of the show.

I'm surprised there wasn't another disclaimer saying that the scene, which depicted many Mexicans, was not representative of Mexican or Hispanic people and that many Mexicans do not enjoy cock fighting. Get on that ACLU!

If House didn't prejudice you against immigrants from south of the border, "The Real World: Austin" foregoes a sub-plot to focus on Peruvian skank Johanna. Danny, Melinda, Rachel and Nehimiah are reduced to bit parts in an episode detailing Johanna's romantic problems related to a bartender named Leo.

Johanna's been alternately flirting with/ignoring Leo for the entire run of the show, but now she's decided to take it to the next level, despite the fact that Leo has a steady girlfriend. She brings him home for a make-out session. Meanwhile, freaky virgin Lacy channels Peter Sellers as Chauncey Gardner as she discovers all the rooms are wired with closed-circuit cameras.

The next evening, Johanna brings Leo back for full blown sex. This time our freaky virgin voyeur watches in person. In the morning, Johanna freaks out and leaves the house. Leo, now satisfied, goes back to his other girlfriend. Johanna spends the rest of the show crying about what a mistake she has made.

Meanwhile, big smelly Wes (you know it's true) uses his camera time to gleefully cheer the fact that since Johanna is emotionally spent from making a tramp of herself that the time is just right for him to befriend, then hit on her. I wouldn't wish that fate on Hitler.
