Review of Eastwick

Eastwick (2009–2010)
1/10
Warning Episode 8 trivializes the rape of a man by one of the protagonists
9 August 2013
Warning: Spoilers
To anyone who may be thinking of watching Eastwick,

I won't presume to tell you what you should and should not watch, but I do with to warn you in advance. SPOILER. There is no reasonable excuse for the depiction of rape by Joanna Frankel (Lindsay Price) in episode 8 (Paint and Pleasure). In the afore mentioned episode Frankel forces (ie. against his will) a man to have sex with her in order to make herself feel better about herself. Later it is revealed that the man is is a happily married gay man, and her rape will likely result in the end of said marriage. The show treats this horrific event as light-hearted humor.

You have been warned
