So, uh, what's up with TV shows now starting with HUGE ratings boxes and coming back from commericals with a smaller ratings box?

You talking about like after a commercial break? If so I just noticed that today myself. I heard that someone in the government was trying to enforce stricter rules and things on cable television. So networks are taking things in their own hands so there aren't anymore guidelines and stuff. I don't remember where I read this though.

wtf? i don't even understand what you're trying to say....

Yeah, I worded it too poorly...

OK.

I've noticed in the past day or so that, when the rating of a show is on screen at the beginning, it's a lot bigger than normal. I've also noticed that when the show comes back from a commerical break, they show the rating again (which is the first time I've seen this done).

They just started doing this on Cartoon Network. Have you guys seen Teen Titans? I watch it with my little brother and it's a pretty sweet cartoon.

I saw a big TV-Y rating show up while a cartoon just came on & on the Family Guy they just show a small TV-14 rating box, Fucking Goverment!!!. You just can't trust those fucktards anymore. :annoyed: :oh_no:

Teen Titans is a very cool! & so is Justice League Unlimited. :drool: :D

My favorite female character are,

Hawk girl & Wonder Woman

Raven & Starfire which I have a Teen Titans vol. 1 comic book that I bought from Kemps which the Teen Titans look much older then the cartoon series. :drool:

Why do they need a rating box so darn! big which is very stupid. :annoyed:
