On Censorship...
I was watching my beloved Grey's Anatomy last night (well, watching AND playing online..i might as well while i still have it, right?), and i thought i heard something that until now has been incongruous with regular network TV...i heard a woman use the term "F***ing"...seriously! My head whipped around (because that totally caught my full attention) and my jaw simultaneously dropped to the floor. Just to be sure, i asked my hubby who was also watching, "Did that woman just say "f***ing??" , to which he replied, "She sure the hexx DID!" Both of us then sat and watched the rest...but i was unable to pay much attention to the rest of the show, because i was still freaking over the F-bomb being dropped on network TV. I mean, this is one of the very reasons i do not miss having cable...i just really don't like hearing that word coming out of what should be a harmless device.
Ok, in all seriousness, i was considering giving up what has been my favourite show up til a few months ago, when Torrez and that blonde chick-doctor started having a lesbian thingie goin' on. Sorry, peeps, but i don't wanna watch that crap when i am usually trying to eat my dinner. But this new turn of events is a bit more than i can take...epsecially considering i'm trying to keep that crap OUT of my home!
So, my question to you all is:
What is your take on the censors taking the weekends off...obviously starting with Thursday nights? Are you as offended as i am? What's YOUR cut-off point as to what's shown/heard on TV? Do you think the censors are right in being so liberal or do you think they need to get back on their sticks and crack that censor whip? Come on, people, let me know!!
