Reviving Steroid Media Watch blog about media portrayal of steroid use & steroid user

[Millard]

What are the best/worst depictions of anabolic steroid by the media on tv/movies that you've seen.

I am reviving an old blog that I started in 2005.

It was called "Steroid Media Watch". The tagline was "Monitoring the Portrayal of Anabolic Steroids and Steroid Users in Television and Cinema"

Will you guys read it?

I will blog about things like 'roid rage' scenes in movies and on tv. E.g. Jeff Soskin in NBC's Life, , Peter Billingsley in The Fourth Man

The original blog is still at Steroid Media Watch - it's just sorta been abandoned...

What are the best/worst depictions of anabolic steroid in movies and/or television series that you've seen.

Please suggests relevant movies and television series episodes that are worthy of review. I would also be interested in any steroid-related print advertisements and/or television commercials.

The more outrageous, the better!

I would imagine if you include the expression "on steroids" there is more than one could possible guess. Ironically, it is an expression that is more often than not to denote something positive!

Anabolic steroids build muscle mass. More mass increases strength. In car terms, this means a bigger engine. More horsepower. But this is not the essence of a car's acceleration. Torque is. The pulling strength that gets the mass moving. Through turbocharging, the Saab 9-5's engine delivers maximum torque at low and medium rpm. The range where most driving takes place. Performance is boosted without bulk. Less becomes more.
