The Philanthropist

Incredible show! Even more incredible that there is not a second season!!! Do you think it might be because this particular series didn't fit in as well as most shows do with the "dumbing of America". Every show made me think....made me feel.... made me care. A series that actually had viable impact on the viewer. Too much for the powers that be in America to deal with. Let's all be good little sheep now.......After reading the reviews for all of the shows, there were a number of people (women, I assume) who had problems with Teddy's sexual appetite. There were comments of feeling sickened by him and his behavior. Disgust at him hoping into bed with any woman at any time. I have known men like him. Always ready and able to charm the panties off of almost anyone they choose. Ok, to those reviewers who had problems with his behavior...... what about the women who were so willing to follow him into the sack at the wink of an eye? Any loathsome comments about them? Remember, it takes two to tango, as they say. By the way, just for the record, I am a woman.I normally don't write reviews....I read other peoples comments and leave it at that. This series had such a profound impact on me, I just felt I needed to share my thoughts. It is unfortunate that such a quality series gets axed, while there are sooo many series being produced that are nothing more than a total waste of resources with absolutely no redeeming values at all. This series was a pearl among swine. Shame on those who put it to death.

I believe this show was cancled because it makes people think. Thinking is something we all need to do more of. It had very good acting, it had great directing, and cinematography and it made me think. I found it very enternaining. How often is there a good action movie or tv show that actually made you think? The premise that a filthy rich man running around the world trying to help people is great. Unfortunately it would seem that few people actually want to see the worlds problems so in there face.
