Ridiculous

I was laughing away (shake head) as I was reading the newspaper, regarding netizens' comments on the final episode of the 'Ping Pong show'. Many feel that it is wrong to show that one of the girls use her body to achieve her goals, both fame and fortune. It also shows that the girl who refuses so, was then made handicapped, as her arm was broken by the baddies. Well, if it is the show, doesn't the scriptwriter has a say to how he or she wants the show to be? In the first place, this show wasn't advertised as some sort of motivating show, and definitely isn't one of the those that claim to teach moral values. If we can't have any bad people in a show, then what's the show about? Of course in this world we are in, there are people who are corrupted and people who are good. People who have lived long enough will understand that life isn't that fair and hence, being morally right in the show doesn't mean you have a good life. For instance, how come no one says that it is very wrong for Yuzhu (Little Nonya), who has been doing good deeds throughout, to suffer an ill fate? (Glad she did, if not dear Joanne would not become Best Actress)

Okie, I have digressed. What I feel is that, a writer should not be restricted when it comes to writing. Period.
