The Simpsons on Fox:This episode contains discussion of same sex marriage!
Edited on Sun Jun-26-05 07:03 PM by tritsofme
Parental discetion advised!

Just on now.

How pathetic is this?

The discussion of same sex marriage is an issue that requires a disclaimer like extreme violence, vulgarity, or nudity?

2. Not at all
It was like a disclaimer you might see before an extremely violent movie or something of that sort.

5. No, it was a public service announcement before the credits even rolled.
I knew someone would post about it as soon as I heard it.

3. Didn't see it yet
Could it have been The Simpsons making fun of Fox yet again?

15. No, FOX Network is national, based in Beverly Hills
And the message was also shown here in Upstate New York.

11. So THAT's why it's not on here in TN!
Showing St Jude's Dream Home Giveaway instead.

Oh, well, St Jude's Children's hospital is a good cause, anyway.
