One Armed Women or just Bad Art Department at Ewwww?

You know Entertaint Weakly? Errr, weekly?

This is where a gay guy and his staff of Millennials tell you how to waste your time.

This means watching anything involving RuPaul, and tons of "Queer Eye," and gushing over nonsensical twits insulting each other on sitcoms or vocoderizing garbage music in most any genre that nobody over 30 can stand. It involves praising every Marvel movie, anything George R.R. Martin or pudgy E.L. James does, and declaring some black 20-something chick to be the new J.K. Rowling because, hey, she's old and white and Harry Potter is SO OVER.

Naturally, Ewwwwww is loaded up with "MUST SEE" grids of what you should stream, watch, or (once in a while) actually buy. Since the supply and demand of time-wasting brain-polluting SHIT is so high, and people have so much free time, the mag even mentions the junk on very obscure cable channels most normal people have never even FLIPPED by. Like "FREEFORM."

Here's a full page, comically written up by somebody named HIGHFILL, for a show on FREEFORM called...creatively...THE BOLD TYPE.

Why this caught my attention was that I thought it was a show about physically challenged women. Take a look. These aren't just MILLENNIALS...these pretty girls (is it ok to call them GIRLS) each has an ARM MISSING.

Wow. NOW we're getting somewhere. Instead of just quasi-minority garbage, like a sitcom about Asians, proving that Asians can be just as tedious and unfunny and annoying as anyone else...here's a breakthrough.

A SHOW ABOUT ONE-ARMED CHICKS being happy, and taking charge of their lives, and FEELING GOOD ABOUT THEMSELVES.

NO. This was just an incredibly amateurish mistake from the Entertainment Weakly art department. What next, run a photo where there's a flower pot in the background and it looks like the star is wearing it for a hat?

Didn't ANYONE notice that the three women all have a MISSING ARM?

I weighed through the snore-producing natter-squib just to make sure this wasn't a TV show about amputees or birth defects. Nope.

These girls DO have ARMS. TWO OF THEM. On EITHER SIDE.

When you consider how often the London Daily Fail, and the others, gleefully show you pictures of severed corpses, burn victims, acid attack survivors, and shots of Kardashian asses in Spandex, it really isn't too far off to expect "chicks with one arms" to be an entertaining idea of a series. You know, something to watch while waiting for a new season of "Jackass" or "Eating Bugs and Stepping through a Field of Dung" reality shows.

Listen, arm-challenged pretty women deserve a break. And...Long Jeanne Silver is still around, and she could use some money, and she'd be a real ratings boost on "Dancing with the Stars."
