Jack Bauer's Days are Numbered?: FCC May Regulate Violence on Television

fcuk!

haaha

f uck

oppss.....i'm so bad

I will have to say that turning on the TV with young children in the home is getting harder and harder every day.
You're right about that, even the commercials can be pretty bad. My family has to change the channel constantly when shows like American Idol or Survivor cut to commercial because the spots for shows like CSI or 24 or whatever show so much of the show that it gives her nightmares.
At the same time, I love cable shows like Deadwood, Dexter, and Rome because they can be grittier because of the station that they're on. Then again, these shows don't have ads that play during programs aimed at families.
We need some kind of a happy median on TV, but some people are just too sensitive to the simplest stuff while other people don't seem to care what their kids see.

You can't legislate morality. If your kids don't see it on TV you can bet your ass they are going to see and hear it in the real world (school mostly). Plus, you have parental control capabilities these days so use it to lock your kids out of mature shows. I do agree though that the commercials are getting more provocative and need to be curbed.

p.s. That was an awesome clip of cross fire. Man has the quality of Crossfire degraded over the years.

We have the channel blocker set up on all 4 tv's in the house. It works great. But as I do agree that some of the stuff on at 'family' hours is getting out of control, Im more in favor of regulating the PARENTS!

There has been talk of allowing FCC regulation of cable television too.

Bay Buchanon (sister of Pat) was on CNN debating in favor of it.

Enjoy HBO while it lasts.

ive got an idea, dont let your dumb ass kids watch violent shows

in other countries they have nudity and blood and gore. their kids turned out alright.

I would think that HBO would be set since it's a seperate pay channel.

You would think.

It should be up to the parent to step in and not let their children watch violent or adult themed shows. I am sure that the goverment has bigger problems to worry about than if little Johnny or little Suzy are watching 24, CSI or what not. The parent should be WATCHING and PAYING ATTENTION to their children and KNOW what their children are doing.

I agree with Saden if our children are not seeing it on TV they are probably hearing about it at school. I just guess that is where the parents need to step in and teach their children better...
