Like those old timey Christmas shows like A Charlie Brown Christmas or Frosty the Snowman? These shows are cute and they’re innocent. Kids look forward to them each and every year. In fact, whole families are known to gather around the TV set during prime time viewing hours to take in the traditional shows of the Christmas season.
There’s another show that goes on at 8:00 pm on Monday . . . also during prime time. It’s a CBS show called, “How I Met Your Mother.” On the CBS webpage there’s a promotional video for the show. It’s described as follows:
What do you get when you take one of the most beloved Christmas characters and mix it with Barney from How I Met Your Mother? A very inappropriate snowman!! Oh Christmas will never be the same!
In this spoof, you are treated to footage from the classic children’s show with new voices dubbed in. Frosty talks about his porn collection and “boobs”. He also encourages a white rabbit to have sex in front of an audience of school children. Funny, huh?
Here are some examples of what Frosty says:
“I have been with a lot of women. Blondes. Brunettes. Redheads. Big boobs. Small boobs. Medium boobs. Some boobs that were big but kind of in a bad way.”
And, here’s Frosty’s advice to the white rabbit:
“You should have hit that. Dude, your pants were already off. You had a classroom full of people to cheer you on. And you can’t knock her up because it’s a dream.”
Once again, a season of innocence and hope, Christmas, is defiled. And, the favorite weapon of many a progressive/liberal is to roll out the smut jokes. Ha, ha, Frosty is talking sex! Reminds me of some pimple faced, chicken-chested dork desperately trying to establish his coolness in some high school locker room. Pathetic . . . but then again, that’s another pretty good synonym for the progressive/liberal establishment of network television.
Hat tip: OneMillionMoms.com who front-paged this issue on their website and are asking people to send letters of complaint to CBS. Thanks too to my wife, a subscriber to OneMillionMoms, who sent me the email concerning CBS’s version of Frosty the Snowman.

I stay away from network sitcoms for pretty much the same reason I stay away from the red light districts and "adult" book stores...

Read Chesterton, you just gave sage advice . . .
mailloux (Diary) Friday, December 4th at 4:59PM EST (link)My children only see videos or DVD’s approved of by my wife or me. Regular TV is only watched for political debates or for tornado watches/warnings. I truly believe it’s one of the best decisions my wife and I have ever made as parents.

Thanks mailloux...

TNJim,
mailloux (Diary) Monday, December 7th at 1:32PM EST (link)For progressives and their ilk, Tis’ the season to berate Christians and their traditions. They certainly champion their right to do so . . . but we have every right to call them on it through forums like this one or OneMillionMoms.com, and, of course, we have the right to withold our dollar . . . for example agaist those companies that advertise during the “How I Met Your Mother” show.
Thanks as always for reading, commenting, and the reco too!
Merry Christmas, mailloux
I got that email too and passed it on
Karina (Diary) Saturday, December 5th at 5:27AM EST (link)Hopefully, enough people will complain to CBS and they’ll pull it. When are they playing it?
Enough!!!
Karina,
mailloux (Diary) Monday, December 7th at 1:36PM EST (link)The Frosty-themed promo is only a web video on CBS’s site . . . but plenty of folks typically visit website associated with TV shows.
And, you’re right . . . it is indeed time for some pushback.
Thanks for reading, passing on the email from OneMillionMoms.com, for commenting, and the reco too.
Merry Christmas to You and Yours, mailloux
Thanks, as always, mailoux, for posting this. I tell ya, just when
eburke (Diary) Saturday, December 5th at 9:19AM EST (link)you think these amoral, humanistic, swine with less self-control than a rabbit in heat couldn’t sink any lower, or get any more debased…ya read something like this.

Of course, they are too ignorant to recognize the reason why they have been losing viewership for years. Most people prefer not to fill their minds with decadent innuendo.

In todays Hollywood...the goal is to provoke and shock...
AceInTX (Diary) Saturday, December 5th at 1:56PM EST (link)my question is…at what point do they lose the ability to do so any more…how much lower can they go before there is nothing left to shock us with?!
AceInTX,
mailloux (Diary) Tuesday, December 8th at 2:18PM EST (link)Sorry for the very late reply! It’s been a particularly busy work week coupled with a lot of after work activities (scouts, church, etc.). So, I’ve been erratic with online stuff.
How low can they go is a dreadful thing to contemplate . . . hopefully, enough people will stand up and say “enough!” with both their words and their money (targeting some of the sponsors). It may be a drop in the bucket, but as the old saying goes, “one does what one can.”
Thanks for stopping by my diary and for commenting as well!
Merry Christmas, mailloux
This is absolutely SHAMEFUL mailloux....
JadedByPolitics (Diary) Saturday, December 5th at 5:22PM EST (link)but if WE cannot even get that PERVERT schools czar kicked to the curb WE don’t have much chance of changing the perversion that is occurring on our TV daily…..I say WE must all make the call on Monday to our Congressmen and Senators to END the reign of the school czar and the soul sickness he brings with him to our little school children and then having WON that battle WE continue on with the WAR against the leftists!

The so called edginess of the entertainment industry is, I suspect, limited by their abject cowardice. Therefore, I don’t expect any Muhammad spoofs during Ramadan.

And thank you for a well written diary.
mbecker908 (Diary) Monday, December 7th at 11:37PM EST (link)I always enjoy your stuff, it’s consistently very well thought out, cogent and timely. You also address subjects most of the rest of us miss so I think you bring a very “rounding out” influence to Redstate.
Best wishes for a very merry Christmas (or should I say Xmas
)…
Thanks for the alert!

CBS is insane.
scottbomb (Diary) Tuesday, December 8th at 12:43PM EST (link)What I wrote:
Dear Leslie Moonves,
As a father, I am greatly disappointed in your network’s upcoming “Frosty the Snowman” show. It is poor judgment for CBS to stoop so low.
This show is disgusting, especially to air during “prime time”.
It’s no wonder you continue to lose ratings. Only the lowest denominator wants to watch your crap.

mailloux (Diary) Tuesday, December 8th at 2:29PM EST (link)Thank you for taking action on this . . . as the old saying goes, “the more, the better.” One drop of water is easy to dismiss, but millions could make a nice little tsunami . . . enough at least to drown out the idiocy at CBS.
