That guy is actually a woman.

Also, I agree with Senusret I. The AIDS song from Family Guy was not funny and I left the room when it came on.

Also, commercials for prescription meds. Those commercials are illegal in Canada, so I only see them on US stations, but I don't think it's right that they are advertising for prescription meds. If a doctor thinks you need it, he or she will prescribe it to you, but why do you need to advertise it to the public?

I have to agree on the ads for prescription drugs, "natural male enhancement", and feminine hygiene products.

I've also found some of the more recent episodes of South Park pretty disturbing... then again, I guess that's the whole point. :p

Yeah, you can have herpes and a normal life. Uh, huh.

I hate all of these ads, especially when you're watching in mixed company. The only funny one was Bob Dole making the Viagra ads and then grinning lasciviously at Britney Spears!

The commercials make herpes look like a lot of fun. I want to frolick on the beach and go horseback riding!

Anything involving eating on Fear Factor. I'd have been fine not knowing what cow brains in a blender looked like.

Just between us, I could've gone the rest of my life without knowing that Bobby Brown once "dug a dootie bubble" out of Whitney Houston's ass.

Oh, did I mention Sponge Bob square Pants?

That character freaks me out! There is just something creepy and odd about Sponge Bob.

I thought that we just couldn't mention what a drug does up here? I'm pretty sure the Viagra commercials with the guys prancing to work ("Good Morning" from Singing in the Rain) or singing in the shower (Sinatra's "My Way") were Canadian. US depression drug ads (for example) tell viewers what it's for.

Ok I was watching this new show "Brat Camp". It's about trouble teens going on this grueling trip. Well, one of the girls took a shit on the camping grounds and they showed it on TV. Ewwwww! I was eating dinner too. :(

HUUUUUGE amen to that, along with the comments on the dancing Six Flags guy.

And I'm surprised why people haven't mentioned Jared yet. His face doesn't quite fit together right! He may have lost a lot of weight, but that didn't solve all of his appearance problems...

Hello to all. Have anyone seen the last few episodes of Rescue Me that comes on FX? I am just shocked at some of the language that is heard...I have heard the words sh*t, t*ts, c*ck, etc. I have heard some of those words last night when I watched 30 days. I guess its just an FX thing.

Hence the "TV MA" rating. And it's on after (well at) 9:00 which I think makes a difference

Yeah -- I'm always like, "Wow, people with herpes live WAY better than I do . . ."
