Television Issues

[neauveau]

So I'm all excited about the Fall Line-Up this year. Can't wait for Martha Stewart's Apprentice to come out. Last night the new Survivor started and we tuned in while I knitted a sweater...


I had to leave the room when everyone on that show started getting s* from dehydration. Like after every single commercial break! My husband said they showed it graphic and everything. [img]smileys/smilies_11.gif[/img]


I thought v* wasn't shown on prime time shows?Is this a new thing or is it just me? Gets me all nervous about watching television. And then there's the Dr. Phil show on Monday about the mom who scares her kids so bad they get s*. I feel bad for the kids but I wish they would just mention it and not show it... *sigh*

You're not going to believe this, we were watching America's Funniest Home Video's the other night, while eating dinner, and this one video was of this kid, maybe about 3 sitting in front of his birthday cake with candles....obviously a birthday party and i'm thinking he's gonna knock over the cake or something, boy was I wrong!*GRAPHIC*....the host of the show says "make room for cake" right after that the kid pukes all over the table by the cake, like a volcano coming out of his mouth! I couldn't believe it! WTF...I thought this was supposed to be a funny family show...well needless to say my appetite was gone for the night...did anyone else see that? Well I guess most people don't see that as graphic or traumatizing as we do[img]smileys/smilies_03.gif[/img] Can you imagine the guys that look at all the videos and decide which one's are going on the show, "let's see this one is funny"! HAHA...too bad there wasn't some kind of warning like how we do...so much for family tv!....Talk to you later

Even non-emets are rather disgusted by all the v'ing on TV and movies.

Seriously, can the directors think of nothing else amusing or riveting? What will we have next - graphic d* scenes? Well, we already have some of those (think Dumb and Dumber, Along Came Polly).
