In 20 years, this will be the stuff of primetime TV -- uncensored, even -- and, people then will laugh at what "prudes" we were today. Why, just last night, a TVLand documentary was recalling the uproar caused by the sit-com "Three's Company" in 1978. Some deemed it unabashed, non-stop, in-your-face sex. "Can you imagine if Friends had aired back then?"

On the Simpsons the other day, Marge said "boy Fox tv made the transition to hard core porn so subtle I hardly noticed it". I find it strange that you can't show a nipple on prime time but you can describe absolutely any gross disgusting depraved act in gory technical detail all you want. That's sick! A nipple would be a lot more wholesome.

Do we have to have either? I don't know that many people who actually watch prime time TV anyway, so I'm not sure its all that reflective of society. It seems to me that FOX and the others are really just fighting over a static group of social degenerates.
