Should Modern TV allow Heavy Swearing, Violence and live action nudity? -

Considering we're now in the twenty-first century I think it's time we stop living in the 50s and start portraying life the way it is. What do you all think?

 

[The Manglement]

Doesn't it already? Ladies get they ta-tas out on Game of Thrones all the time. Same with horrific violence. A lot of shows feature heavy swearing.

 

[Krokodil Overdose]

Premium cable has been a thing for a while. Or is the question should this stuff stop being premium?

I don't like gritty or overtly sexual movies very much.

 

[Rolo_Tomassi]

I think as television gets more cinematic, you'll slowly see the erosion of the standards of censorship we see now on regular cable.

 

[AnOminous]

The only thing that should be allowed on TV is constant non-stop sodomy.

 

[RG 448]

Yes, I’m sick of paying extra for nudity.

 

[ToroidalBoat]

People still watch TV?

 

[Hell0]

THINK OF THE CHILDREN, who already watch porn, play call of duty, and swear like sailors.

 

[Wakko Warner]

Maybe, since the censors are starting to lighten up a bit even with broadcast TV.

 

[8777BB5]

I guess I should've prefaced this by saying basic cable (NBC, CBS, PBS, ABC, and Fox)

 

[Dolphin Lundgren]

Yes. Then people don't have to pay for nude news girls on television.

 

[Smith Banquod]

Cable TV is a dying medium in this day and age but still more regulated than the internet. Makes little sense to shit yourself over a casual "fuck" thrown here and there but ultimately it's not even up to stations whether or not they want to broadcast something spicier but rather how fucked they'd like to get over by old people reporting their ass for fucking violating the cunt laws of the shit country.

Thank god for internet streaming. And yes, they should allow swearing and violence and boobs on television.

Given how awesome the Deadpool movies are I'm going to say, yes, swearing, violence, and some tits make for good times.

The government should not be in the business of deciding what is and what is not offensive.

As far as children go I think we give them too little credit. I think they're fully capable of understanding mature themes and that involve violence and even sex.

 

[ICametoLurk]

lol kids are watching porn and sending nude selfies to strangers, they not be watching tv grandpa

 

[QI 541]

It doesn't matter because TVs are going to become obsolete someday

 

[NOT Sword Fighter Super]

As long as that stuff doesn't become the focus of whatever program it's on. Like on South Park when they come up with "Must Shit TV" because their gimmick was they just say "shit" constantly.

 

[Jewelsmakerguy]

Maybe, since the censors are starting to lighten up a bit even with broadcast TV.

They're absolutely desperate at this point thanks to the internet, so why wouldn't they?

In the UK, the deal’s always been that swearing, violence and nudity are fine after 9.00pm. There are limits - you can’t show an erect penis, for instance. I always found it weird with American TV that they could show a person getting chopped up or whatever, but no one would say anything worse than “damn.”
