CBS Sexes Up 'Frosty the Snowman'
NewsBusters ^ | December 2, 2009 | Carolyn Plocher

In a perverse advertisement currently on the its Web site, CBS is trying to cross market the crass television show "How I Met Your Mother" with the children's holiday classics "Frosty the Snowman" and "Frosty Returns."

The disgusting result was the video "Frosty the Inappropriate Snowman," in which Neil Patrick Harris's voice (in character from the sitcom "How I Met Your Mother") was dubbed over Frosty footage.

Harris' Frosty said things like, "We've got to have a bros' night at a strip club" because it's "healthy" and "harmless." He also discussed his "porn collection" and "the Dominator 8000 - the best bull whip on the market."

Frosty the Snowman voiced by an angry, sociopathic, gay man. I think I’ll pass.

Can’t be any worse than The Grinch movie where the mayor’s wife ends up with The Grinch. If Dr Seuss was still alive he would have had a heart attack.

Desperate to have sex with our children perhaps?

If you have to pick your battles in the Culture Wars, and you do, I’d pass on fighting over this one.

They are.

They have no shame. No one in any media that survives ratings seems to. The demographic network television aims for are dogs and humans from 8-80.

Jim Carey has done a handful of good movies - that’s not one of them.

All of the audio is taken from the show. And at the end they put up the plate that some holiday classics are best left untouched, then put on the schedule for showing the Frosty movies.

Dougie Howser is a fag. I can never understand how they cast these shows.

Hated his version of The Grinch, but he redeemed himself with A Christmas Carol.

Q: Why was Frosty the Snowman standing on the street corner?
A: He heard the snowblower was coming.
Sorry....

Never ask how low can they go? There truly is no depth. They designed an advertisement for an adult sitcom by using a childrens’ show and having Frosty the Snowman make sexual jokes to children.

How ironic. Last night I watched on youtube the Claymation Christmas special, which I used to watch every Christmas with my now-passed Mom. I was sitting here LMAO (at the funny parts) and enchanted with the videos and music and was thinking "why can't anyone make stuff like this?"

I guess I have my answer -- TV writers of today are just puerile.
