One Million Moms, which is really just a couple thousand moms at most, is not at all pleased about this new show, The Real O’Neals. In fact, they hate the series, based on an idea from activist Dan Savage, so much, they watched it with rapt attention and took meticulous notes, and now they can’t stop talking about it.
“It is almost impossible to describe the depth of depravity found in the sitcom “The Real O’Neals,” writes an anonymous blogger on their site, but by God they’ll certainly try. The organization has compiled a list of the ten scenes that captured their attention most. Here it is:
- Jesus appears where only the gay son can see and talk to Him, and He is annoyed by the mom’s strict guidelines for her family
- The daughter steals money she is supposedly raising for charity.
- The daughter “attempts to prove” that there is no God in a science fair project.
- ABC network refers to this highly dysfunctional family as “the perfect Irish-Catholic family.”
- A statue of Mary is kept above the O’Neal’s toilet to remind the boys to put the seat down.
- The first jab at Jesus comes only 52 seconds into the first episode.
- The mother encourages her 16-year-old gay son to “try s-x” with a girl. (A dash ‘-‘ is used to bypass internet filters.)
- Vulgar language (ex. V-gina).
- The mom makes pancakes shaped like the face of Jesus to guilt trip her anorexic son into eating.
- One of the show’s producers is anti-Christian bigot Dan Savage, and the show is said to be loosely based on his life.
OK, a couple things. First of all, someone just saying “vagina” really does not constitute a “scene.” Second, good grief, these scenes are what constitutes depravity these days? They’re all so mild! We remember when depravity really used to mean something, back in the days when we used rosary beds as Ben Wa balls.
Another of the Moms’ current campaigns is to pressure advertisers on the show Lucifer, which is about the devil fighting crime. Their complaint? The show is “meant to make people rethink assumptions about good and evil.” Oh right God forbid people do anything thinking!
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
Anyway, the Million Moms want everyone to write to Simply Orange (a juice company owned by Coke) to tell them to stop advertising on the show. And yes, Coca-Cola would probably indeed be shocked to know what’s going on — not that they’re advertising on a show that mentions religion, but that One Million Moms still exists.
By the way, speaking of organizations that incredibly still exist, did you know the National Organization for Marriage is still a thing? These days they’ve pivoted away from trying to ban marriage — because that’s not just a losing battle, but a battle they’ve permanently lost — and now they’re trying to pass antigay discrimination bills. They’re also circulating petitions to block trans people from being able to use bathrooms, because that apparently has something to do with marriage.

I knew they’d have a field day over this! Bring it on!

This show has me rolling! Funny!

I watched this show and I liked it. But it is such a saccarine family show, I’d hate to see how these crazy school marms react to Game Of Thrones or any of the hundreds of other shows on TV that are far far far more offensive.
Tony Chaplinski
gives the organization too much credit, probably two lonely housewives with nothing better to do then to bitch because that aren’t getting any and are jealous of those that are
Grant Mealey
Great show! As long as we are pissing them off we must be doing something right ð???
Bobby Crean
Love the show
Pablito Belanger
“One Million Moms” = (maaayybe) a few hundred insecure closeted guys. Truth!
Also, I wasn’t sure about this show, but it’s kind of endearing so far. Probably won’t last too long, but it’s had a few good moments so far.
Derek Perron
I died laughing at this show Tuesday night came to life and died again.

Couldn’t care less about the Moms group, but this show does sound awful and should appeal to gays : anything that makes Irish-Americans look like idiots. Surprised the writers didn’t make the O’Neals all alcoholics too.
Ken Artley
He is so adorkable

Deze ain’t good mummies dey is bad wuns, such losers!
DCguy
@joeyty: So lets see, you defended gay bashers on two other posts and now hate a program that has out gays in it.
At least you’re consistent.
joeyty
@DCguy: And then I give another high-heeled kick to your nose. Werk !!! (Don’t mess with A NYQueen).

By god these dried-up skags should be churchin’ it every day to express gratitude for lives so easy they have nothing else on their great, big, gravy-drenched plates but to watch TV.
CHANGE THE FUCKING CHANNEL Y’OLD BUNCHA BEAVS!!

Maybe the show can end with the O’Neals dying violently and then you can all really cheer.

I watched all 3 episodes last night and thought it was pretty good.
David Charles Morgan
I loathe Dan Savage but love this show!
IanHunter
I love the show. I think every episode has been hilarious. I knew there would be some old, narrow-minded biddies that would throw a fit about the show. I hope that it is picked up for a second season.
Dan Nichols
This show is hilarious and wonderful! OMM – get a hobby and leave this show alone!
Mack
I too love the show. It pokes fun where it should. If you have a problem with it, DON’T WATCH THE SHOW. This sitcom is no different than “Blackish” and their “Black Jesus”. I don’t see the 1MM making a stink over that.
Ariel Hans Christian
The sibling interaction is THE BEST…total sibling love.
Siblings always know when the parents are fucked up. Simple family dynamics…but when your siblings got your back = the BEST
JAW
Not a fan of Dan… I find him a self centered SOB…
But I do love the show… growing up as one of 8 in an Irish Catholic family, I see lots of things similar to what they are going through.
I hope it makes it!
joeyty
@JAW: Talk about self-hating.
joeyty
@IanHunter: Criticizing hatred now means one is an old narrow-minded biddy ?
dean089
You’d think that “One Million Moms” would have figured out by now that when they boycott something that only makes it more popular.
Sansacro
@joeyty: hey, it’s ok to be one of the Irish “gays”; time to forget what that priest did and said to you!
joeyty
@Sansacro: No, it’s not okay in the slightest. And I’m not Catholic.
AJAnders
I think the show is actually pretty cute. All the family members are likable. It gets laughs here and there. The mother is played by the hilarious Martha Plimpton. I hope the show sticks around.
One Million Moms like to think of themselves as this powerful group. They have no power to influence anything. They patted themselves on the back and took all the credit for getting ‘the New Normal’ cancelled but in reality, the show was horribly written, inconsistently written and rarely had any laughs. The ratings reflected that and the show failed. It had nothing to do with One Million Moms.
I’ve got a middle finger with their name on it.
Nick Pacella
i think this show is really funny i do enjoy it
AJ Legault
I will watch anything that has Martha Plimpton!
Todd Hamilton
Another fail by ” One Million Moms “

@AJAnders:
Save that middle finger. After their husbands ran off they’ve become quite familiar with their own.
paul dorian lord fredine
@joeyty: how about criticizing something that you actually watch, or is that too much to expect of a ny queen?
joeyty
@paul dorian lord fredine: Well of course anyone named Lord is going to hate those micks even worse than some Protestant named named Hamilton.
paul dorian lord fredine
@joeyty: who said i hate micks? you’re the one using derogatory names here. and lord is a stage name, dipstick.
joeyty
@paul dorian lord fredine: Then you’re a wannabe English Protestant. And a vicious one, like usual. Which is the only reason you’re praising this mean-spirited piece of Eirophobia, like most gays. (I’ve been in the gay ghetto for a long time now).
paul dorian lord fredine
final word…..you’re the one being mean spirited and therefore you are not worth my time.
joeyty
And I guarantee you everyone here would be screeching their heads off if it was a show about the most horribly stereotyped African-American family played by white actors in blackface. But because it’s merely non-Irish actors making fun of the worst mick stereotypes you all cheer it on and think it makes you more sophisticated and WASPy cosmopolitan.
joeyty
(BTW : Can we have a TV show now where Mohammad appears to talk to Matt Baume regularly ?)
GC1985
@joeyty: I think you are nothing more than a fraud. why don’t you come out with a stupid defense of One Lonely Mom?
@joeyty: You are so stupid with this remark. Do you ever have anything intelligence to say? You bitter vindictive prick
GC1985
@joeyty: Don’t pay attention to this little bigot. You are probably some ultra Orthodox Armenian who thinks everyone is going to hell. Piss off!
joeyty
@GC1985: kick

This shows sucks. It’s going to get canceled soon.
Dan Savage is an ex drag queen that’s not any sort of expert on human sexuality, LGBT issues, he’s r@c!st, biphobic, homophobic, and a misogynist. He also hates trans people.
@joeyty: Yes this show is full of bad Roman Catholic/Irish stereotypes that haven’t been true in a very long time. Nobody I know that’s Irish-American or even hardcore Roman Catholic and Irish acts the way these caricatures portrayed on the show do.
joeyty
@Stached1: Thanks. None of that ethnicity I know today (although they all have funny stories of years ago, in the U.S. and back in “primitive” Catholic Ireland ) act that way. But vicious gays just love to pretend those things.
