You may be smart enough to turn the channel, but are you fast enough? We were watching the Super Bowl when Janet Jackson had her "accident"? Our grandchildren were speechless, and immediately waited for Grandma & Grandpa's reaction.
We were speechless too!
We mainly object to vulgar language & violence; We can handle a boob now and then.

I envy the day when people can responsibly afford to worry about children getting a 1/8th of a second blurry glimpse of a woman's bare breast on television. If that's the worst thing that happens to them, they're in damn fine shape.

Which is a far more sensible position to take than "oh, sure I let my 6 year old watch Die Hard 3, but my God, did you see the Super Bowl thing?!". However, it's rather easy to identify programs on television which are going to have violence or language that are inappropriate for children. Many programs have ratings right up in the corner. Digital cable and satellite services include ratings and synopses of programs available at any time. There are also channels that specifically cater to children. I've yet to see something inappropriate on Nick.
