I think Ellen is a great and sucsessful woman! She's written books , acted , had fun and has her own TV show. I love her show! I think it is funny and intresting. What I think is stupid is that commonsense says that it focuses on same-sex marrige. That isn't true. I've watched about 50 episodes and there wasn't one thing about it. I think that we should respect people , diffrent , lifesaving , entertaing , interesting , people. Everyday people , and I think Ellen shows a great deal of that! WATCH IT! You'll love it!

What Parents Need to Know
About Ellen
Parents need to know that this show focuses on the importance of friends and family, despite their flaws and imperfect natures. It also highlights the idea that humor can be found in even the most ordinary situations, if we choose to see it. Parents should also know that later episodes of the series (those filmed after star Ellen DeGeneres came out in real life) focus on homosexuality and same-sex relationships.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the importance of having a positive attitude in even the worst situations. How can your attitude impact the way you cope with awkward or difficult situations? When is and isn't it appropriate to use humor as a way to diffuse difficult situations? Families may also want to discuss sexual orientation and the challenges people face when coming to terms with their own sexuality.
