I have to say, since I really love "Bull" and the show always gave me good feelings, I'm really torn and sad that this happened. Not that I had any idea about Michael's other work and the likes, as I never watched NCIS, but this makes me sad and I'm not really sure what to "do" now... I mean, I don't think I'll be able to ever watch BULL the same way again now that this came to light, so there's that... and if it doesn't get canceled now anyway, I don't know where the fairness is in all of that...
And I feel SO so bad for Eliza, even though I also don't really know her previous work and don't know much about her, but Michael seems to be a real pig and the people that protect him are just as disgusting as he is...
I also have to say, though, that it makes me sad that it makes me think of the fact that when it's a woman who does something wrong, it usually gets swept under the rug... And I hate this double moral...
Like there was this incident with a (female) THE 100 actress recently (and yes, it was "only" her attacking her boyfriend and hitting him until he had to go to the hospital and not sexual harrassment), and if she was a man, she would have been fired from the show immediately for what she has done (no matter if she has done it in private - to her boyfriend - or on the set), but because of she's a girl/woman, no one seems to care... not even the fans of the show while I'm silently "WTF-ing" thinking how I don't think it's cool that woman get treated differently than men...
It's sad either way, and when things like that happen I really question humanity, but like I said... there's still a lot of double moral out there... Michael Weatherly probably deserves everything that happens now (and of course everyone else involved that tried to sweep that under the rug) but I still think the same should count if he was a woman... oh well...

Sorry for the monologue...
