Title: Peanut Allergy story line on "Smash"
Post by: SpudBerry on April 17, 2012, 03:21:14 PM
Anyone else watch the show?  The new character introduced last night - Uma Thurman - has a peanut allergy.  Then in the previews of the next 4 shows they talk about some one not being able to breath.  I really like this show - so I'm hoping they deal with the topic responsibly.

Hopefully they handle it better than "Horrible Bosses". I saw it for the first time last night (on HBO while the kids were asleep) and one of the characters has a LTFA to peanut, anaphylaxes, and is then stabbed with an Epi about ten times in the chest and neck. I'm guessing it's come up here before, but I missed that one. Oy.
