A.S. We noooootiiiiiced! Heh. Glad to have ya back.

S. Sounds hilarious. I'd probably watch it.

If everybody sued over everything potentially blasphemous, South Park would have been obliterated long ago. Since when has anyone cared about what they show on TV, for gosh sake? The fact that there was (is?) such a thing as The Jerry Springer show seems proof enough to me that you can get away with anything on TV. It's not even illegal to portray all those Biblical figures that way. Is it? I can't possibly imagine it would be. Then again, this is America, and that's Britain. But still. I didn't think we were that different. Anyway.

P.S. Can one actually sue for blasphemy in Britain? Good lord, isn't anything disagreeing with Christianity blasphemous, in theory? This wasn't even serious and they're suing over it. Why not sue everyone who says that Christianity isn't the path to God? I find the whole thing absurd and shame on them for suing and I hope there are plenty of reasonable people on the side of the BBC who will tell the plaintiffs, "What are you, an idiot? Get your head out of your arse and come back when you have a real problem."
