Cary, N.C. Time Warner Cable officials apologized Tuesday after they mistakenly showed Playboy preview programming on two children's channels.

Don’t they do that in Kindergarten nowadays anyway??
Or is that just the Girl Scouts?
Stuff like this doesn’t happen unintentionally. Someone had a sick sense of humor.
Hmmm... can’t say that I’m shocked. One can’t simply protect kids from everything under the sun. Wouldn’t be good either. There’s a ‘luck’ factor in life, and these kids, the boys at least, were just lucky.
Perhaps the sights will inspire them to become great guys with great visions. Because they know now what’s waiting for them.
So all in all: no big deal, and a tiny smirk.
Some immature lib did it on purpose just for the giggles.
Congratulations for the most idiotic post of the year.
This was no mistake.
Hell, just mark it up for “Sexual Education” - they probably see wrose in the classroom. (Sarcasm)
NC
Anyone else remember when adult channels were blocked with an analog filter (before the days of digital TV or even special cable converter boxes). My friends and I wasted far too much time playing with the tuner and arguing whether what we saw through the scrambling was a boob or a knee :-).
Why didn’t we have cable TV when I was a kid?
Lucky to see pornography?
That stuff is a landmine which can mess up a kid for life. And you think an eight year old who saw it instead of normal viewing would be 'lucky'? That is fracked up.
Doubt if any of the pre-schoolers who saw it on the Pre-school on demand channel felt “lucky”.
I think yours is the creepiest post I have seen yet.
Kids have all the fun.
Trust me you weren’t missing anything. Today it’s even worse.
have you seen ABC Family lately? That channel is teen porn with clothes on for hours on end in the afternoons. Then it gets intense in the evening.
Or you could watch the Disney channel itself for The Suite Life. I am very angry that this ‘mistake’ was made though if it was going to happen anywhere in NC it is least surprising it happened in Cary. We don’t call it the Containment Area for Relocated Yankees for nothing and, short of Carrboro, it’s the most liberal area in the central state.
I try to drive around it.
No accident...rouge child sex pervert employee? Probably. They are running the culture and public schools now.
Reminds me of the days of pirate TV. And aerials instead of cable. At midnight they broadcasted Tyroler sex flicks, which is: soft-porn. We manipulated the aerials until our arm muscles were gone (no not from other activities).
To all others: I didn’t mean to write a creepy post. I am far from abnormal. I didn’t really have much grasp of the age categories involved. Nor of the character of Playboy Channel - that’s not hardcore porn, is it?
If I offended anyone unintentionally, I am truly sorry. I may have written in too much haste.
Harris (Louth) Automation did weird stuff at the PBS station I was at. I despised that system but it was cheap and us working people paid for it.
