The pheromone spray scene didn't bother me. I do think it was a mistake, though, because it DID bother a LOT of people. Two years later, it's STILL the main thing some people remember about Season One.

But what are they going to do, run every scene idea past a committee to make sure they didn't accidentally put something stupid in it? Put up a poll on the internet?

It's their show, they're going to do what they want with it. I like it, so I watch it. Nobody is obligated to.
