Fantastic Canadian-made older kids' show aired during Nickelodeon's infancy. Involving snot jokes, barf jokes, fart jokes, and other similar hoohah, it was notable for naming one of its castmembers "Moose" despite the fact that she was a young human female.
Did you know Alanis Morrisette got her start on `You Can't Do That On Television` back in the day? Even still, I like it anyway.

Media Watchdog group which claims to be non-partisan composed of bored housewives who drink their daily glass of wine a day who believe that they themselves should not parent their children, but in fact, the major networks should. L. Brent Bozell III, the founder, also heads up a similarly non-partisan organization which watches the news networks looking to prove a liberal bias trying to destroy this country, and is against all gay rights.
We, the Parents Television Council are highly opposed to the nudity contained within Grand Theft Auto. Before we thought it was simply a tool to teach the children about Black culture, but now we've learned it's just filth.

Lazy parents that are unable to parent their children, due to severe brain damage. They feel that they shouldn't have to parent their children, and when they give their children access to anything they don't want their kids to see, they feel that it is not their own fault for enabling the child to see the questionable content, but the entertainment industry for "corrupting" their "innocent" children's minds. They are also very naive, thinking that because they don't want their kids to see it, nobody should be allowed to. They are typically too busy bathing in their own stupidity, or arguing about something else that "corrupts" their children at a PTA meeting, to actually monitor what their kids do, so they try to force others to do it for them, by stripping the rights of everyone else.
Typical Parents Television Council supporter

"It's not MY job to parent my kids, that's the entertainment industry and the governments job!"

"How dare those evil corporations show something I don't want my kids to watch!"

"What? Did you just say parent your children? That's absurd! Why would I take care of my kids anyways? That's what the TV's for, right?"
