'The Real O'Neals' Scrambles for New Sponsors

'The Real O'Neals' Scrambles for New Sponsors

ABC's newest sitcom "The Real O'Neals" is described as "just your typical all-American, Catholic, divorcing, disgraced, law breaking, gay family" and continues on to say their family is "a perfect mess." It is now airing on Tuesday evenings at 8:30/7:30 p.m. CT.

"The Real O'Neals" mocks Christianity and insults Catholicism. 1MM recognizes this show ridicules people of faith, and Christians across America are offended by it.

It is almost impossible to describe the depth of depravity found in the sitcom "The Real O'Neals." It is impossible to list them all, so here are a few scenes from this TV – PG - DL rated show:

  • Jesus appears where only the gay son can see and talk to Him, and He is annoyed by the mom's strict guidelines for her family.
  • The daughter steals money she is supposedly raising for charity.
  • The daughter "attempts to prove" that there is no God in a science fair project.
  • ABC network refers to this highly dysfunctional family as "the perfect Irish-Catholic family."
  • A statue of Mary is kept above the O'Neal's toilet to remind the boys to put the seat down.
  • The first jab at Jesus comes only 52 seconds into the first episode.
  • The mother encourages her 16-year-old gay son to "try s-x" with a girl. (A dash '-' is used to bypass internet filters.)
  • Foul language.
  • The mom makes pancakes shaped like the face of Jesus to guilt trip her anorexic son into eating.
  • One of the show's producers is anti-Christian bigot Dan Savage, and the show is said to be loosely based on his life.

I am highly disappointed to learn from One Million Moms that your company sponsors ABC's "The Real O'Neals" on Tuesday evenings at 8:30/7:30 p.m. CT.

"The Real O'Neals" mocks Christianity and insults Catholicism. 1MM recognizes this show ridicules people of faith, and Christians across America are offended by it.

I certainly hope your company's financial support of this type of television programming through advertising is simply an oversight.

Please let me know that you have ordered your advertising off "The Real O'Neals" and all programs that make a mockery of the Christian faith.
