Channel 4 cancels masturbation season

Web of Fear · Channel 4 cancels masturbation season

After the recent controversy of Big Brother, Channel 4 has decided that a season of shows on the subject of self gratification probably wasn't a good idea.

I could say that it's been "pulled" from the schedules, but I won't.

Here's the story. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6323997.stm

Ahhh I remember some of C4's finer seasons from the mid 90's. Lesbian Season..... Sex Season. I was a happy teenager

The 'masturbate-athon' sounded rather interesting...

But, after reading that article, I'm just trying to get my head around the idea of a group of men and women all in one room wanking for charity...

I mean, why do it for charity when it's free...?!?

Why do I love it that its BBC reporting on C4 having to cancel stuff?

Why on earth would anyone want to make a program about masturbation anyway? and for the life of me why would anyone from a TVstudio think it was a good idea when it was pitched.
Imagine

"so what we got then boys"

Well we have a possable documentary on the implications of the orange march through catholic streets in ireland.

and a possable documentery on the lack of wepons of mass distruction in iraq.

or a documentary on why there is a section on unspecified mental disorders in the mental health bill, and what it could mean.

or a documentary on masturbation.

and the TV exec. say "i think the masturbation," and another TV exec says "yes i will second that. thats a really good idea"

INSANE.

I mean who gives a Toss about masturbation anyway Laughing
