Hopefully not to :

I was channel surfing one night, and came across an episode of 'Coupling' (it was on the one station that broadcasts BBC programming. http://www.kera.org if you care, but anyway). Now, I found the show funny, (like Black Adder) but I noticed that they are way more vulgar, etc..   err they play fast and lose,   for what is I'm guessing is a primetime show. So to actually get to my question, are shows like Coupling mainstream or fringe or what?

yeah it's no big deal to see tits on TV over there, I thought it strange when I first moved to the USA how puritanical the TV channels were but they had no problem showing graphic violence.

Mainstream, nothing particularly 'outrageous' there.

You must remember, we are more open minded over here. After 9PM we can see full frontal  'bush' on the normal TV, whereas, you guys had a national outcry after Janet Jackson showed a covered up nipple!  We even have naked bewbee's in our daily papers....

I knew the part in red, however the extent of it was what I did not know.

Full hardcore porn on mainstream Danish channels after 12. Just fellatio (not simulated) and breasts before 12 though.

Mind, all the girls look russian and bored

Skat movie's are forbidden (Verboten), no but seriously, we get a few soft core film's and the girl's stripping off to music in strange place's, sometime's you even catch a glimpse of the old furr burger. That's about it though, the danish TV sound's much more intresting to me .

I'm a someone who'd much rather have hand's on than watch some of the rubbish that they bring, having said that, it sometime's whett's my whistle, and then Mrs toemag get's a hard time.

I'm looking forward to the weekend, no I'm not going to get lucky, I'm off to visit Sintec1. He only live's about an hour and a half's drive away. We'll post any relevant stories on the forum.
