Thread: In the interest of education, or...?

an odd choice for educational programming.

Hmmm....

Now that is very interesting.

fantastic choice....leave it to the government to figure that one out.

Actually, baywatch is considered for teens over here.
Nobody raises an eye, but that's probably also because by European standards, it doesn't contain anything that could be considered inappropriate.

My oldest kid likes the simpsons and we allow her to watch when we are present because not all episodes are suitable for 3 3 year old. We don't let her watch any of the halloween episodes, we prevent her from seeing itchy and scratchy, and if the episode turns graphic, we switch channels.

But three are lots of simpsons episodes that are perfectly safe for a kid to watch.

Never seen Baywatch Hawaii, but if it's anything like the original Baywatch, it's an interesting programming swap - from what I recall there's a big difference between hearing Bart say "Eat my shorts" and watching Pamela Anderson's bum do the same...

Pamela Anderson does have a lovely smile.
