But I'd also argue that ''GG'' and ''VM'' in particular portray modern family life in ways that could inspire discussion in families.

Both VM and Everwood (like The O.C., which made the "bad" list) show teens having sex and doing other sorts of bad things (Bright drinks! Veronica breaks all sorts of laws and ethical rules!), so they are definitely out. GG is a little better as a "family" show, but once Rory slept with a married man, that was that. These shows don't send the "wholesome" message that is required for this group. But it is sort of shocking that they couldn't come up with a 10th show for the "good" list.
