the simpsons- entertainment-Education?

I had a mixed feeling about Sex and City being entertainment education, only because in the clip we saw they do seem to tackle the issue of smoking and its negative consequences. But in the rest of the series, I think, Carrie glamorizes smoking. She is a tv ad for smoking pulled straight out of glamour ads that depict women as sexy, glamorous, and alluring because they light up. That always bothered me about that show, because it really impacts the way women think. What I didn't realize until yesterdays class, was that now I have a new forum (Ent-Educ) in which to discuss some of my favorite shows such as Sex in the City and The Simpsons.
