The New Normal is no more!

NBC has cancelled "The New Normal" after one season. The show depicts a gay couple and their wish to start a family so they hired a surrogate. The season and show ended with the birth of their baby boy.


The "New Normal" show told all of the gay couple/family/having a baby stories it could tell in one season. Like a Brady Bunch episode, wrapped up very quickly and in hyper stereotypical fashion. More than enough. OK!!

With the other sitcoms trying to showcase the same thing I think we have crossed that barrier now. The LGBT community has had their "Good Times", "That's My Mama", "Jeffersons" and "Sanford and Son" groundbreaking if you get the drift. DONE! And please don't expect me to watch another show just because it has a gay storyline, actor or characters...ESPECIALLY IF IT IS PRODUCED BY RYAN MURPHY or has that annoying Andrew Rannells.

I deserve a new toaster oven for watching every episode of this show! Just saying. A high end one this time! The old Black & Decker from Walmart has about run its course.
