I'm sick of it. I'm sick of all the women on TV being dressed inappropriately. I'm tired of the lawyers and CIA Directors going to work dressed like they were going to a cocktail party. I loved Covert Affairs and Fairly Legal, but the bosses on those shows were always dressed in ways that would make HR call them in for a chat.
And Bones? Seriously? Brennan is supposed to be all unaware of social conventions, but she shows up every day in stylish, perfectly accessorized outfits with her hair falling in effortless waves? I know a few Aspergerish scientist chicks and trust me when I tell you, they don't know how to dress like that.
Even on Grey's Anatomy! Nobody looks like that in scrubs. Nobody. Those have to be special cocktail scrubs.
I know I'm exaggerating. I'm pretty sure all those Law and Order assistant DAs dressed reasonably. There are probably more. Maybe I'm just feeling old and dowdy. My birthday is rolling around soon and I'm feeling my age these days.
So what do you think are the most egregious examples of characters being inappropriately dressed on TV or in the movies?
