Why We Love TVs Anti-Heroes By Garret Stephen

Summary: 

In Stephen Garrets article he talks about why we love the Anti-Hero in TV shows. He then goes on and gives some examples of some of the most popular TV anti heroes such as Tony soprano and Don Draper. He then goes on to ponder on the thought of why we love these characters who do so much harm so much ? . Furthermore he begins to depict on how they can make us decide between whats morally wrong and whats not for them,even though it would be different for ourselves. 

Analysis;

I believe that we love TV anti heroes because deep down inside of us we all are a little bad. I believe that sometimes in society we all wish we could do something bad , its human nature. Nevertheless it has been ingrained into us that such are morally wrong so we don't. I believe that sometimes the morally wrong choice is the right one sometimes and I believe that in some cases we all believe that . For an example a man robbing a liquor store to get monetary gain is bad , but if a man id robbing a liquor store to feed his family its seen as not as bad. Ultimately they are both doing the same crime but one is looked upon more lightly.
