Could have used a lot more fights between women


An advertisement on the Space channel stupidly only shows her beating up on men. The ad could have shown her beating up on other women--that kind of thing is much hotter and fulfills the fantasies of many more people; therefore, the proper ad would have compelled more people to watch it.
There were a few good cat fights on this show, but it could have used more. Anyone with any real taste would obviously see how much better it is to see women beating up other women than the tired old platitude of woman beating up man. If you're a guy and you like that, i'm afraid you're nothing but a masochistic and limp loser. And to the women, stop pretending you only like to see guys get beat up. We all know there's a least one other woman in your life that you would want to knock the lights out of.

Just in case this isn't trolling (i.e. saying guys who don't like to see women get beat up are losers)... in terms of "fulfilling fantasies", when you've got a show with a sexy female character who kicks butt, you've gotta expect to attract the "masochists" in the audience, though I agree that more cheesy "cat-fights" would definitely have been a big ratings-grabber. Then again, we DID have Sydney wrestling in mud in an early ep, so I'd say the creators were more rating-conscious than you might think... :)

Yeah but how many masochist fetish guys can there be? I'd say there are way more that take pleasure in seeing women wrestling around with each-other instead of seeing them kick men in the nuts or whatever. For good reason too! I would most guys don't have a pleasant experience when they're kicked in the nuts. It's just the fetishy weirdos who like that, but thankfully there's not to many of those--not that they have any less of right to what they like of course.
