Ah, anyone remember when SmackDown was this cool?

TOP 10 WORST
1) WWF Smackdown!
(UPN/first season)
Airing at 8:00 on Thursdays, Smackdown! exposes children to obscene, raunchy, and violent content on a weekly basis. Regularly featured characters included a pimp and his "Ho Train," a sex addict, and a porn star. Episodes contained women mudwrestling topless, homosexual innuendo, and drug references. One plot line centered on a wrestler's sexual dalliance with a 70-year-old woman. Violent content included characters being beaten with chairs, poles, pipes, 2x4s, sledgehammers, street signs, chains, a piano top, and hockey sticks, getting smashed through tables and windows, getting run down by a limo, rammed by a semi truck, and being set on fire. Foul language included all the standards and audible use of the s-word, and visible (though not audible) uses of "f--k" and "motherf--ker."


I used to watch SmackDown, now I just keep up with it.

I bet whoever wrote that would have had a heart attack if they had ever seen an ECW show.

If it was so disgraceful, people would have been offended and not watched. The fact it was a success was a commentary on the times we live in, not how disgraceful the show is. And seeing as how I just watched a movie at 12 in the afternoon on TV that had the phrases "cocksucker" and "holy shit", which never air on any WWE television show, they needed to get their priorities straight. Fucking right-wing "we know what's good for you" scumbag assholes.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer
(WB/not ranked last season)
Bloody violence, dark occult themes, and bizarre and scary sex scenes permeated the family hour in this show intended for teen audiences. Although Buffy was relatively clean in seasons past -- containing only fantasy violence and occasional sexual innuendo-- episodes this season regularly included one-night stands, heavy doses of sexual innuendo, sexualized violence, and dark, occultist elements. Violent scenes including vampires, demons, werewolves, and other creatures make this dark fantasy series a nightmare for parents. All sex among these young college freshmen is portrayed almost exclusively as romantic or fun, with no reference made to the consequences of such behavior.
Now I'm pissed.

"sexualized violence"

I guess I missed the 'Death by Anal Penetration' episode.
