As if that Mass Effect clip wasn't disappointing enough. Now we have to sit through this sub-Troma-level shower scene from a 2003 ep of NYPD Blue, which for some reason the FCC is only now fining the network for, to the tune of... well, you read the headline.
"We find that the programming at issue is within the scope of our
indecency definition because it depicts sexual organs and excretory
organs -- specifically an adult woman's buttocks," the FCC wrote in its
ruling.
ABC argued that the scene was necessary to "illustrate the
complexity and awkwardness involved when a single parent brings a new
romantic partner into his or her life."
Uh huh. So no one's using common sense on this one. Well, at least it's a fair fight.
