Everyone understands that. The problem here isn’t the programming or the commercials that the OP found offensive. The only real problem was that the OP didn’t know what he was watching. Spike is for adults, period. No sane parent would let a young child watch the channel. It’s very adult oriented. My example holds: Being surprised at this is EXACTLY like being surprised to see boobs on Playboy.
Who needs Playboy channel to see boobs? Plenty around here... ;-)
I’m going to pick a little nit with you on what Spke-TV is... yeah, it’s adult, but specifically adults that still think like middle school boys...
