FCC decides fake lesbian and heterosexual sex is decent

Speaking of the Parents' Television Council, the FCC has rejected claims that scenes of heterosexual and fake lesbian sex (in Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Will and Grace respectively) are indecent. PTC brought the complaint against Buffy, indicating that they are not concerned, lest they should provoke my ire. More's the pity, then. And the only thing indecent about Will and Grace is its over-reliance on Big Name Guest Stars. I mean, the show can be funny, but endless cameos by Celebrities Showing How Open Minded They Are just seems sort of desperate.

While I am not interested in watching either heterosexual or faux-lesbian sex during prime time, I have to commend anything that stymies the efforts of the PTC to conquer the viewing habits of the entire frigging world. I salute you, FCC!
