The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show

Did anyone catch the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show last night?

First of all, I was shocked that it was aired at 9pm! Now, granted, my kids were already in bed, but that is still a bit early for this.

There were thong, bare booties, boobies...the whole nine bouncing down the catwalk.

If you saw it, do you feel that it was appropriate for prime time television?

Here's a link to the Yahoo story about all of the complaints that the FCC has received today about it...

In some cities, the CBS affiliate station that it was to air on taped the the show and aired it some time after hours.

I also saw the show. I live in Atlanta and it aired at 9:00. I was flipping between this and Fastlane.

I don't think it should have been shown on CBS. Maybe on a cable channel like E! or something like that, because it may have had the opportunity to be shown later on that night. On a channel like CBS, there's no way they could have shown it any later than 9:00. I also think that it's NOT for little eyes to see. This was for the grown folk

I was saying to myself "this is NOT realistic underwear" It's purely fashion!! But overall I thought the show was pretty good (but I enjoy fashion shows anyway). I could have done without the thong and booty shots every couple of seconds. I want to see the ensemble, not your azz.

I too agree they could have put it on the E! channel/cable or showed it on Network TV at 10. Because not all kids are in bed by 9 and then you have the Bae-Bae kids who tell their parents when they need to go to bed.

i had no problem with the time b/c parents should control what their children watch. my grandmother always monitored what i was watching.

Even though I think that all kids should be in bed by the 9pm (I know mine is) it is still a bit much for prime time TV. I know most teenagers are not in bed by 9, and do they really need to see up close and personal (i.e. booty cracks) what the media thinks defines beauty?

I missed it but hopefully I'll catch the rerun. I don't know if I'll watch the entire thing though, something else always comes on to grab my attention - Probably the O.C on Fox because that's at the same time.

Gamma_girl52, I didn't know Fastlane was still on. What channel airs it now?? I used to watch that when I was in ATL too - cheesy as the show is sometimes

Remember,

November is sweeps month. We will see just about anything on TV this month.

The post I made was old! Fastlane doesn't come on anymore I was hurt. MTV did show it at one point but not anymore.

Well I'll prolly peep this fashion show out...just because I'm curious to see what they'll be showcasing this year.

I noticed that it comes on even later now at 10. But it looks like it'll be good.

Is this going to be Tyra's LAST runway show? I could have sworn that I heard that this was going to be her last one, then she is officially retiring from modeling.
