User talk:Wl219/Pregnancy on television

Hi, I've come here from the Gender Project talk page. Thoughts on the current draft.

• The article title left me expecting an account of fictional pregnancies on TV, at least as much as real ones. Make it so? Or change title?
• The bit about firing pregnant actresses is not about pregnancies on TV - unless you can offer a connection between pregnancy and specifically the TV context. Such material would certainly be really interesting.
• Don't use "jumping the shark" without explaining it in this article, at least not in the first mention. Not everyone has lightning-fast connections to tyr to understand you! And you could do with explaining the reason pregnancy is specifically an issue which would cause a series to peak and decline - otherwise this just becomes a list of random things involving pregnant characters.

Looks like this could be a really good article, by the way. Nice one for starting it! I hope it won't lead you too much into WP:NOR territory, but surely someone somewhere has already written papers on this subject?
