Am I reading you right, zapppop?

It would be appropriate that Alec Baldwin no longer be allowed to do Thomas the Train because of the adult material he has done since (even if it won't happen because of his established celebrity status).

I never said it was appropriate Alex.

The world is full of hypocricy. I know this so I'm not surprised by this. That's all I meant.

So, no you did not read me right [again].

But up above you said "however if it was made & released after, then she got what she deserved."

So if she would deserve firing for making these videos after she got the job why is it not appropriate for Alec Baldwin?

Isaac 07-31-2006 02:45 PM

Like I said before, it's all about hypocricy.

The world's not fair.

If she didn't have the common sense to know that a video of her on the internet playing with a dildo (no matter how graphic it may or may not have been) that's available for millions of people to view (including children) could have gotten her in trouble since she was trying to get work on a tv show for children then maybe she deserved to lose the job.

If Alex Baldwin had done the same thing, I wouldn't think any different. Again, he's a top celebrity so he can get away with the hypocricy.

It's all hypocricy. I agree that it's not fair but I'm not surprised by the decision

Who said anyone was surprised? I don't have to be surprised to be angry.

The polite girl always pretends she has no idea what sex is.

Just lay back and think of England, my dear.

Despite this she was still given a U.S. version of the show (that failed in the ratings not because of any scandal over her dress and former nudity). It is amusing that PBS would be the prudes, especially when at the critics presentations last week they said they are going to be less fearful of the FCC and fight harder for free expression.

Xuxa!!! LOL! I remember watching an episode of the American version of her show, and I was in awe...

...over how HORRIBLE the show was!

Yeah...she wasn't your typical children's show host...
