A television boycott

Big surprise. The Parent's Television Council is threatening a boycott of the show "S*@! My Dad Says," which will debut this year (starring William Shatner).

I'm a parent too, but c'mon guys. Let's get real here. If you think it's so bad, don't let your kids watch it. I probably won't let my youngest son watch it. It's easy. There's a switch on the television. It's called the on-off switch. Don't deprive the rest of us of comedy, just because you're humorless.

I thought the response of the show's co-founder was pretty funny: “As a parent, it is my opinion that the Parents Television Council has much more important s–t to focus on than the title of a sitcom called ‘BLEEP My Dad Says,’” said Mutchnick.
