I'm obviously not their target market. I just find her annoying and boring. This is, however, related to writing, in that it does a writer well to pay attention to gender differences in reactions when it comes to writing for characters who are not your own sex. Men, in general (and, yes, this is a generalization) are known to react more visually than women. That is why in the "Beauties and Geeks" kind of show...the beauty is always a woman and the geek is always a man. A woman will (in general, if she isn't Paris) watch an unattractive man with a brain, and a man will (in general) watch a brainless female with beauty; but the reverse is less common. It explains, perhaps, why most sitcoms feature a gorgeous wife paired with an unattractive mate. Tiresome and cliched but I guess the ratings depend on such predictability. If you look at a show like "Seinfeld," the men were hardly classically handsome, but the women all were gorgeous (except the women that the men made fun of...those were allowed to be simply beautiful). If you try to break out of the stereotypes (and I so wish someone would have that kind of courage), be aware of the battle you will have to find a market. Now I understand that Brittany and friend/spouse/boy toy is not doing so well with their television show, which may speak to the idea that there is hope for this generation yet. (Watch the ratings start to sky rocket, just to prove me wrong.) So the answer to advertising the writer's forum is to hire Paris or one of her endless clones and have her suck on a computer mouse while washing a computer? Yeccch.
