I don't watch t.v., but it's funny to see someone get so upset over not being able to see some boobs or hear people cuss.
Is that theĀ*reason you watch t.v.?

No , it isn't

, but it annoys me that cable was supposed to be a change from what the broadcast networks offered , that's what made them competitive with "free" tv in the first place . They don't have to censor themselves , there's no acceptable reason for it other than candyassed pandering to the whiners who are stupid enough to watch a channel that's scrambled to protect the content and then bitch because their 4 year old saw a titty or heard the word
"Deleted by Calhunter" . Whether delivered by cable or satellite there are parental controls on every descrambling device , so
there is no need for self censorship on their part ,
that's the consumer's responsibility .
When cable first appeared they
had to be commercial free to justify the horrendously high price of $10 per month they charged as an incentive to subscribe , now they even have pop-up ads during the programs , which really pisses me off . [:@] Why shouldn't the Juggys on the Man Show be full frontal ? You couldn't see that unless you paid to and agreed to the content . But no , a few whiny blue noses write a few letters complaining about shows
they have never even watched just because they don't want anyone else to watch it either and the Juggys can't show more than 3/4 of a butt cheek . If you don't like what's on a channel use the clicker and find something you do like . Ooh , no , mustn't show an image of someone else's prophet , they might get pissed and tear up their own country ! Spare me ... The same dipsheits who do that would clap and cheer if they saw that so called "art exhibit" that featured the virgin Mary in a jar of piss , who gives a sheit if seeing Mohammed on tv cheeses them off ? Not me pal , screw 'em .
Bottom line , it isn't about boobs or commercials , it's about the First Ammendment right of free speech and the destructive effects of that bullsheit PC pandering that jerks my chain . That crap is fine for broadcast tv , but once you pay to see something or do a show that others have to pay to watch then it should go on unaltered as the creators of the show intended it to be , not hacked to a mere PC shell of itself stripped of it's entertainment value to the point that you might as well turn the box off .
