2.0

Although I loved the well-written story, I was very unhappy with how one of the character’s obesity was portrayed. I want to see fat characters who are good and are portrayed with dignity. Jeff’s portrayal of this character only strengthened the already negative stereotypes about fat folks. I doubt I will continue the series as a result.
