Growing Pains and Let's Party have been shown on N@N before. Therefor, they aren't controversial.

Are 'A New Life' and 'Ready or Not' considered controversial? I was thinking they are but maybe N@N showed them and I missed it.

panman, I'm not trying to start anything
with you, but technically those two
episodes are controversial. I'm pretty
sure that N@N did not air them the first
time FOL was aired on N@N. But, I will
admit that N@N did air them the 2nd time
around. But, if you noticed that those
two episodes were about alcohol, N@N
does consider those two episodes controversial.

I don't think N@N considers those two
episodes as controversial, I could be
wrong though. Because if "Ready or Not"
is considered controversial then so is
"The Facts of Love" and "My Boyfriend's
Back". In all three episodes sex is mentioned. In two of the episodes Tootie
considers having sex, but she didn't. In
the other episode Blair was fooling around with her boyfriend and was thinking of experimenting a little. That's just my thought!

angel676: I got the impression from past posts that the controversial episodes are the ones N@N won't show. But I could be wrong. I can see how the others that you mentioned that deal with alcohol might be considered controversial. I guess I just thought that if N@N is airing the episode, then they must not think it is very controversial.

Regardless, I think that 'Ready or Not' and 'a New Life' have been previously referred to as controversial episodes. Does anyone know if N@N has ever shown these?

Lynn, you are right! N@N won't air the
controversial episodes. But during
the first time FOL was aired, they
didn't air "Growing Pains" and "Let's
Party". This is a big "if", N@N could
have aired a few controversial episodes
to get us off their back. Alot of us
wrote N@N a ton of letters about them
not airing the controversial episodes.
They might have gotten sick of all those
letters and decided to air a few of them,
at least the ones that they thought were
appropriate even for the younger youth.
Alot of today's youth knows about alcohol. That's just my opinion though!

Controversial= Not shown on N@N (just my opinion)

so therefore Growing Pains and Lets Party arent. But Ready or Not and A New Life are controversial. Because they havent been shown so they have to be.
