Cutting Uncut

It has come to my attention that the screening of the late night television show Uncut (BB05 late porno show) should no longer be aired on television in Australia.

It is exactly that. A pornographic television broadcast. My reasons for my decision are below:

~*It is accessible to young viewers who are able to stay up late*~
~*It is a violation of viewers AND housemates*~
~*Public television should be viewer friendly for all ages, if not it should become pay TV*~

I would like to take this opportunity to remind those of you who are opposed to uncut and in fact those who are not opposed to it of one very real factor. This show may just be a game and may not truly represent a person's real life but bear this in mind, our world, especially the younger generation, is being exposed to these kinds of things in their everyday lives. Young people engage in sex, promiscuity, sex talk, swearing, the use and talk of drugs, racism, bullying, alcoholism and more. Just because we don't see it, doesn't mean it isn't happening. I am not agreeing to these things being aired but perhaps this serves as a reminder/warning of what is going on out there. Perhaps it is time that we did stop turning a blind eye to it and start being active in preventing these things happening. There is no reason to be showing this stuff on television and that is not what I'm saying but we should also not forget the reality that can be found once reading between the lines of this particular show.

However, i still enjoy watching the Big Brother daily show. I believe that Big Brother is an acceptable program, uncut is not. It is indeed voyeurism but in all fairness that is the main gist of the show - to watch other people's, so-called, lives. There is a form of abuse happening within the show and this is the kind of behaviour the producers do encourage. However, these housemates have volunteered their time in the house and at any given time may choose to exit the house of their own free will. They are not prisoners!

So....i'm all out of steam on this....assume nothing, expect anything......

  • Hey there

    Great blog!! SO TRUE...well, this coming from someone who can't stand Big Brother full stop!! hahaha...

    But I agree 100%...Uncut is absolutely disgusting...I dont know how its justified...but the sad thing is that it IS justified! It's basically porn, as you said, but people think its acceptable!! Its disgusting!! Its wrong and its SO ungodly!! But then, the people who produce these kind of shows dont have the spirit, and those who are not of the spirit dont understand! They believe this life to be acceptable!!

    Good blog...good eye opener...!! Keep fighting for the cause :)

    Love lots

    Your sister in Christ

    FIGHTING FOR THE CAUSE!!
