Maurice, you don't need to be 16 or 18 to get a good look at some of the filthiest stuff you've ever seen. Just turn on the tv on SBS6 after 11. Sometimes I'm ashamed of being Dutch.

Touche, Chrissy

Yes, I forgot about that ... still, although you can freely watch it, I do believe they warn about it being not suitable for minors or something ...

Anyway, I was really talking about MOVIES (um, yes, they do broadcast those, too).

Well I am ashamed to be a Portugese after one of our stations started "Big Brother" now THAT is something to be ashamed.

Is that your own version of the show or one from another country?

Maurice · Post by **Maurice** » Thu Jan 11, 2001 7:48 am

Hehe, well, I've taken my RIGHT as a Dutch Citizen NOT to watch that CR*P!

Sorry, maybe there's a little bit of voyeurism in everyone, even in me, but that goes WAY too far for me ... and I heard the Americans with the puritinity (sp?) immediatly thought of a 18+ version ... duh, who's the 'sick' mind now?

Puritan or puritanism.

You're right, it is utter sh*te.

Big Brother, please don't get me started. After that we got the Bus and god knows what other idiotic remakes. I think I was the only person at my entire school that did not like Big Brother at all! (even the teachers, they were the worst... arg) I didn't even watch the outcome... Know who won tough and laughed at the guy that was expecting to win but didn't. (Ruud for all of you who know who I'm talking about, I really loathed that idiot...)

Gruntboy · Post by **Gruntboy** » Thu Jan 11, 2001 7:55 am

Oh no!

Have you heard there is another one out in the US? 4 young couples are put on an island then separated and 'tempted' with people from the opposie sex. TV prostitution anyone?

We have a load of cr*ppy spin offs here. People in jail trying to escape - viewers can phone in and give them hints. People trying to build things together but one of them is a 'mole' planted by the TV people - they have to sabotage everything.

What complete tosh.

Yes, someone produce CRAP(edmol) and sell all over the world. Welcome to the global ecomomy.

Ladies and Gentlemen

Now, this is NOT going to be the first X-rated BG2 Forum, and definitely NOT because of this man (me, that is).

So, I stop posting sexistic stuff, I will stick to the gore-like stuff, like people shredded to pieces (BG2) or people burned to the bone (BG2) or anything similar to that.
As Maurice noticed (in other words) it is a wonderfull world we live in, isn't it?

Well, some of you might become jealus, but I should tell you about Greece anyway. Some people think we live in the midleages or something, but - no kidding - this must be the most liberated country, considering everything that has to do with sex.

There are some sex-scenes (in USA they would go PG-17 in the movies, or even X-rated) in the prime-time TV series!!!!

Even 8 year old can watch them!!!

Also, some TV stations are into hardcore (XXX for our USA friends) after hours (after midnight, that is).

As for violence... well, only some movies involving violence in the prime time, but there is plenty of gore in the news (I think news in Greece, along with the Italian ones, are the worst, the most "yellow" in the whole world... and I am a Jurnalist, for Bhaal's sake!!!)

In the movies there IS some rating system, but NOBODY follows it (cause nobody is trying to enforce it, if you know what I mean).

And to it, all the popular (mainstream!!!) magazines are filled with tottaly nude ladies, usually TV-starlets, TV-personae or local "top models".

So you can see 12year olds in a adult only (18+) movie.

So, what do you think about Greece?

P.S. (edit) There are some people who wanted to do a Greek version of "Big Brother". They got so discuraged by some polls ("would you watch such a show in the Greek TV?" answers "NO BLEEDING WAY!!!!" ) that they forgot all about it

A little step for Greece, a great for the human kind

Do you have presidential candidates (or whatever - what is your government system like?) that used to be porn actresses? God bless Italy is all I can say!

Ubik, we've already talked about 'going greek'

I am sure ALL of you (except Drakkie, but that is another story) would LOVE to live in those middle ages, wouldn't you?
And, as i added, there is no B.B. here!

Err... Grunt, our former Culture minister has done a couple of sex (X-rated) movies, and we have two congreswomen who did some XXX-rated too. Does that equal the score?
