Re: the toplessness, I know that it was intended as over the top and as homage. But it's homage that still ends up with a topless woman; the irony might be there, but the results are the same, and the attempt to appeal to a certain fanbase is the same.
I just can't get worked up about that when there was a whole episode that was largely fanservice for all of the women who wanted to see Christian Kane with his shirt off. And okay, I'm probably part of the fanbase they were appealing to there, because gratuitous as it was, she was also really, really hot. So yeah, I fail at feminist.
