The tv show cb strike is pretty good. I will watch pretty much everything as you know, it’s pretty boring having this illness. In the latest season (6) they have a patient with ME. There are several things I don’t care for in their depiction. He is always, and only, in angry mode. No variance, no nuance. Only angry. This is not only sloppy, lazy and poor writing, I think it’s unfair. But fair enough, not everything can be perfect right. But what really gets me is this patient is wheel chair bound. Wheel chair makes sense for someone with ME right. But he goes out one day with a crutch. Crutch makes no sense and I don’t know anyone with ME using crutches. But here’s the kicker. The “hero” of the series, Strike says “So he CAN walk when his family isn’t watching”. That’s such a shitty comment, especially form the shows protagonist who’s supposed to be fair, good hearted and someone to look up to.
