Designing Women (TV Series) Real, Scary Men (1991) User Reviews

These designing women just don't do well in rustic settings.

Whether it be as the wilderness girls or dealing with relatives of the men from "Deliverance" or Alison and Mary Jo's brother and another big buck, they just can't even go on a simple woodsy vacation without issue. They are traveling in the local mountains looking for antiques and seek shelter from Anthony and his group of manly men digging deep for their inner Neanderthal selves. It becomes a bit misandrist at times, especially with Mary Jo's out of the blue rant on men's liberation, especially over their right to have their own spaces and of course later with Julia given her termination. That's Charles Levin who played the gay cook Coco in the opening episode of "Golden Girls" as "Simba". Not a really funny episode outside of a bit of manipulated silliness, and obviously one filled with an extremist agenda that will turn more conservative viewers off. Carlene is particularly annoying in this episide, her dimness rather forced.
