Venezuela axes "The Simpsons" as bad for kids email this discussion to a friend?

They took The Simpsons off the air and replaced that with Baywatch!

>Venezuela has forced U.S. cartoon "The Simpsons" off its airwaves, calling the show a potentially bad influence on children, and filled its morning slot with reruns of the beach-and-bikini show "Baywatch."


>"The Simpsons" satirical take on a dysfunctional American family had been shown, dubbed into Spanish, on the Televen network at an 11 am slot.

I wonder how does Baywatch benefit the children? Is it better ofr children to watch women in bikinis rather than a cartoon? That is so weird?

They must think Pamela Anderson is a better role model! haha

Governments just hate to have the piss taken out of their authority and The Simpsons are indeed a major rebel in that regard. Which is why it is so entertaining to liberated minds.

Maybe Tom and Jerry will join Itchy and Scratchy on the banned list?

oh wow. That's something else. They could've at least put Simpsons on at a later time, like at night when the kids are in bed. I don't think Simpsons are worse than a bunch of people running around in bikinis.
