Today's Blind Items - Groomed

Many many years ago I wrote about this show. It was a network staple for a decade. Much like a counterpart on a different network, it allowed for the creepiest of perversions to be carried out by the older actors and producers on set. It was supposed to be a wholesome show, but behind the scenes, the tweens were sexually assaulted and given story lines that were way beyond their years. One actress who stayed with the show the entire time, started as a tween and ended it as an adult. By the time she reached adulthood, there was no one left on the set who wanted to grope her or assault her because they had new extras or one line actresses to stalk. Somehow, she has deluded herself into thinking this was OK and because the show itself was a good compass for society, that what went on behind the scenes was worth it.
