"My Emotions Give me power" Article like The Secret Circle!

        When I first started reading this article I was actually shocked how unobservant I have been while watching television shows. After getting through the first two pages of the article I thought back to all the shows I watch on a weekly bases….and that’s a lot! And all of these shows I watch follow the same guide lines this article was giving. All the “good characters” in my shows were very good at controlling their anger while the “bad or not as well behaved characters” opening shows their anger. I don’t know if anyone watches this show but this immediately reminded me of some of the characters from The Secret Circle. One of the main characters is Diana and she is portrayed as the good girl. Like the author states in this article she hardly ever gets mad and when she does she is very good at control her anger in a proper way. Unlike another main character on the show Fay who is portrayed as the bad witch she is open with her anger and never really handles it in the “socially” appropriate way.

Like the author stated in her article that the “bad characters” that could not control their angry wore dark makeup, while the “good characters” that could control their anger were more natural and acceptable looking. That’s exactly how it is for the show I’m referring to! I was shocked to realize how identical this show was compared to the article! Fay tended to wear darker makeup with sexier cloths while Diana was more natural and wore more conservative clothing. I think it’s crazy that I watch a number of different shows each week and never noticed that the way a person handled anger had such an impact on how I viewed them. Even though it’s not very normal to be so calm about things like Diana is in the show I still leaned towards liking her better. This is because it is more socially acceptable for a female to not reveal her anger………While this doesn’t really talk about the show Buffy The Vampire Slayer I couldn’t help think about how much this article related to one of the shows I watch every week and had to share my observation!
