421081 2006-01-14 23:51:00 When I as a little boy I saw a fly on top of another fly, I thought they were fighting, so I whacked then with a fly swat

While working at the computer I had the TV going they have "From the Heart" (Inland Australia) from 12pm to 12:35pm, the program showed one bird on top of the other, and thats not all, they then showed one mouse (or rat) on top of anther one one,

Then I noticed at the end of a advertisement entertainment break (aeb) they had given the program a "G" classification, shouldn't this be a "PGR" type program?


I don't know why people like these type of programs, all you see most of the time is animals killing and eating another animals, anyway I have turned the TV off now.

Well I have seen a cow ride another cow the dirty $$$$$$$ but never seen a bull on a cow, (I am sure they do it.) but do we need to see it on TV ??

421085 2006-01-15 00:14:00 They call it nature . Oddly, animals are mostly concerned with eating and reproduction .

Maybe they should pixelate the screen to avoid offence . :lol:

Find the off button for your TV (oh I see you did) . I can't see any problem with children watching this, after all those raised on farms will know all about it .

You must have been a violent little boy when you got to school and saw fights between kids. What did you do then, become a serial killer?

Care to explain what you mean by that?

Don't get me wrong, I have no real desire to watch animals mating on TV either, however my comment implied that you aren't forced to watch anything you don't want to on TV.

Furthermore your complaint is fairly juvenile given it was probably a farming program or similar rather than some hardcore bestiality porn or something that would be truly offensive to the wider community.
