Strong Medicine/YMMV
- Jerk Sue: Before the page was cleaned up to only define the term, there was a HUGE entry on Lu. Here's what we managed to get from there:
- Basically, Lu treats every male (aside from her son and Peter) like crap, whines nonstop about men being SO UTTERLY MEAN to women while she keeps mistreating males, and is horribly rude and bitchy towards important people who could get her fired or sued. However, since she's the Designated Heroine, practically everyone adores her to pieces, go on on how "courageous" and "wonderful" she is, and rarely does she get her crap thrown back at her. Since this is a series from the Lifetime Channel produced by Whoopi Goldberg (who even has a cameo as a high-ranked doctor), one can't help but wonder if Whoopi was having her revenge against males after her break-up with Ted Danson.
- Let's not forget that she's got a huge, ridiculously overblown hatred against those who have more money than she does. Since she's a Self Made Strong Woman, Lu is horrible towards rich people, whether they're OMG EBUL or not. In fact, when she hooked up with another Self-Made Man, Jonas, and Lu was pregnant with his child... she whined and threw endless tantrums because at some point he was worried about his possible bankruptcy (which would, yanno, ruin the hard work of his whole life), to the point of threatening with leaving and taking their future baby with her because Jonas wasn't in the mental state to kiss her ass. Yeah, it's valid to be worried and moody when you're pregnant and stressed, but that's just being a self-centered bitch.
- She's also incredibly nasty to her son's girlfriend when she meets her, despite the fact that the girl is perfectly nice and polite, for no other reasons than that the girl is wealthy and she doesn't like her Jerkass of a father. Only when the girl tells her that she knew Lu would dislike her for being white (Lu is Hispanic), does Lu seem to finally realize how destructive her judgmental attitude is. Apparently it's perfectly okay for her to hate rich people but she's horrified at the idea that her son thinks she's racist.
