Parental Warning?

I'm a fan of the TV show CSI and even though I went through a phase of liking slasher flicks in the 80s, I still think they get a little uggy with their body bits and recreations.

Today they ran an add for Thursdays episode where the deceased was part of some sort of internet porn ring.

For this they add a Parental Advisory Warning.

Excuse me???

We get weekly uggy bits of folks who met a violent end, over the course the episode we see several ways they may have become bodies.

Yet they feature a little skin and we need a special Parental Warning?

{{{sigh}}}

Thank You Thought I was the only one who found this kinda bizzare.

Not really a CSI fan but I have seen the same type of warning on some of the Law and Order series

Hmmmm new cable channel "The L & O Channel" All Law and Order, All the time.

It exists.

TNT or A&E, both go through regular L&O marathons.

Welcome to our Puritan heritage. Blood. gore, on screen autopsies.. all acceptable fare.. but sex? Might tramatize the little ones.

I'm a complete CSI addict. Thursday nights are my TV night: Survivor, CSI, Without A Trace.

Yay! CSI!

I can't remember was there a warning for the show where the rat crawled out of the models mouth?

I think it is perfectly acceptable to give a warning when it pertains to Dennis Franz's ass, though! :)

drives me Nuts

we allow our childeren to see and be harmed by violence and bullying but we cant have a billboard that has a naked breast on it for fear it may warp a six yearolds mind.

no csi is not for kids, nor are most crime dramas but a tit or ass here and there will do a hell of a lot less dammage

I grew up around artists so I was use to nudes I think thats what made me healthy.
