Sorry, not banned, just the usual screaming and knashing of teeth that some network dared to show something that they think is offensive.

The irony is that a majority of the folk that are in a lather about this are probably not Showtime subscribers!

Of course, you could probably download the show off one of the torrent sites out there.

I'm a Showtime subscriber, and I find the content of the programming to be offensive and motivated by hate. This morning, when they open their offices, my cable company will be getting my instruction to cancel the subscription.

Showtime is free to show whatever they want. I'm free to tell them to go pound sand, because I will not pay for the privilege of being insulted and ridiculed.

I note the irony of your lathered screaming and nashing of teeth that anyone dare be offended by a program you like.

One minute you're howling about the sanctity of free speech and the next minute you're complaining about our right to exercise our free speech by protesting this show. Are you thick or just a hypocrite?
