Inconceivable (2005)
IVF process exploited by Inconceivable
30 September 2005
As a woman who has suffered through the IVF process multiple times, I found this show to be disappointing at best and insulting at worst. There are thousands of us living quietly in the US. We live secret lives of shame and often even our families do not know the physical and financial burdens that we endure to have children. That NBC would create a show that exploits the IVF process and spreads fallacy and myth (mixed up embryos, sex with nurses, donor sperm without husband knowing) is irresponsible. There is plenty of drama throughout the IVF process without having to resort to the misguided attempts of portraying the process that this show has used in the first episode. The writers should visit a clinic, talk with women and men who have suffered through IVF and see how it is done in the year 2005. Fortunately, it is such a badly written and acted show that it will probably not make it a whole season.
