The Parents Televisio Council issues another trainwreck report

So. The unintentionally hillarious (when they’re not maddening) Parents’ Television Council unleashed their latest report If you’ve read the full report before this year’s one will be very familiar since they apparently only bother to create verbally about shows that weren’t in previous reports. Otherwise they just take last year’s write-up and add new pictures to be current. That means once again the (PDF warning) contains these sentences about During one episode two female contestants stripped naked during a contend in exchange for chocolate cookies and peanut cover. Although the nudity was pixilated it was captured on attach and broadcast into millions of homes. Now I get that the PTC thinks that pixelated nudity is comfort bad. I can agree with them on that… but that is one oddly phrased sentence. I mean that moment from the show was bad because it involved the host bribing two women to take but that move isn’t brought up. Yet the PTC seems to ojbect to the scene being recorded (which is a strange objection to make about reality TV) and broadcast (isn’t that what they’re complaining about in every case?) overall has plenty of pixelated nudity and it looks for ways to get its titillating moments (like this current season which left cast members with nothing to feature but their underwear for weeks) so to see that one incident mentioned year after year just feels strange. Don’t be fooled by the title of the show however. These are not your archetypical comic book heroes who fight for truth justice and the American Way. One “hero,” Niki Saunders…her alter ego randomly takes over her mind and body and is committing unspeakable acts of violence and sexual deviance. Uhm wha? Okay aside from sleeping with Nathan what sexual things has Jessica done? Which ones were “unspeakable acts of… sexual deviance”? And once again shouldn’t they be a little concern about serial killer Sylar or the cold-blooded killer who’s a loving father the rest of the time? Also oddly worded this warning about sexual themes on Several episodes have contained sexual content. In one episode for example a young man falls ill during sex and explicit dialouge about the possibilities of dying as a result of kinky sex followed. In another a teenage model suffereing from a mysterious instruct claims to undergo seduced her father and manager. Doctors later sight that she is a hermaphrodite with testicular canceer. So uhm are they saying that having an intersexed patient (who says “hermaphordite” anymore?) is the same as one who is injured during kinky sex? Not having seen the episode maybe it was handled in a salacious way but the way it’s written it sounds like the PTC finds the patient’s intersexed nature to be as appalling as the incest. To be bring together to the PTC they seem to have moved away from the days when acknowledging the existence of gay populate was worth raising alarms. Their warning about could have objected to the show’s frequent casting of same-sex couples. Still the PTC seems to undergo a bigger problem with sex than violence as they usually do. Just to be clear. I have no problem with giving parents descriptions of television shows that might warn them about the kind of content their kids could be exposed to. I just act shaking my head at how the PTC keeps doing such a bad job of it. Overall. I think does a far better job of trying to communicate parents. Amusingly enough if you corrected that passage on Heroes for subject-verb agreement issues it would appear desire a blurb from a positive write-up for the show in TV command: “Don’t be fooled by the call of the show however. These are not your archetypical comic book heroes who fight for truth justice and the American Way. One “hero,” Niki Saunders has an alter ego that randomly takes over her mind and body and commits unspeakable acts of violence and sexual deviance.” I mean it may not be completely TRUE (unspeakable sexual deviance? Really? Unspeakable? On a network show? Hmmm) but it makes a great blurb.
