I think that commercials should be toned down, too. Or at least run a 3 second text only message that gives a warning if it is an explicit ad. For example, beer commercials, victoria's secret. Heck, even lotion commercials are getting racy.

'Pod, tell the nice people about the "female arousal pill" ad your nine-year-olds saw on Animal Planet.

I don't watch commercials - ever - at least, not intentially. As soon as one comes on, I turn down the sound. On the rare occasion when I've been caught unawares, I can't reach for the remote fast enough.

I think we should stay on this issue - not let it go - become activists. Write emails, write letters, cancel our cable, etc. - whatever we can do to return TV back to the decency it once had. There's no reason that entertainment has to be consistently interlinked with depraved sexuality - when did that start?
