Default TV station that should change their TV station name?

abc family they show some dirty shows and some time dirty movie like they played sleeping with the enemy & the twilight series then for tv shows they play that 70s shows, secret life of American teenager most of their newer show are dirty I think they should change their name to abc to something else beside abc family

nickelodeon
I only watch power rangers mage force and ninja turtles but they got new show called thurder mens it about family of super heros its kind of gross too

tnt
they should just name it the castle and law and order network that the on two shows they show the most I do watch the mentalist some time small ville and major crimes.

I agree about abc family. Most of the shows they air are not for the family. I think it's funny how they try and justify it by saying "a new kind of family". If this is their definition of a family, that's just sad.

Even though ABC Family is now Freeform, I think they should try to stick with family programming at least most of the time. I watched something on there the other night (a movie) that I was surprised they would even show. Can't remember the name of it now, but it was one I'd seen many times.

While Freeform airs family friendly shows like The Middle, they haven't really been a family network for a long time now. That Motherland original drama about witches looks very evil from the ads. And they air Family Guy in primetime Friday nights since Disney owns FOX studios now, that trash is definitely not family friendly.

Definitely FOX "News"-- there is so little news, and so much right-wing opinion, that it should be called "FOX Opinion/Talk."

While I will watch light sci-fi comedies like Bewitched and Sabrina about witches or a light fantasy sci-fi movie like The Wizard of Oz that could never happen, there is no way I would watch an occult, sinister drama like Motherland or Charmed praising witches in real life. My mom agrees it looks like an evil show from the ads that has no business airing. Witchcraft is very wicked in the Bible. One of the most wicked kings in history's many sins includes witchcraft. 2 Chronicles 33:6 NIV version: "He sacrificed his sons in the Valley of Ben Hinnom, practiced sorcery, divination, and witchcraft, and consulted mediums and spiritists. He did much evil in the eyes of the Lord, provoking him to anger." The he is referring to King Manasseh, who is named at the start of chapter 33. It is a sign of how backward today's society is where Christianity gets slammed routinely in the entertainment industry, yet witchcraft gets praised.

I wasn't mocking your mom, I found it amusing that you brought your mom into it.

You're thirty-something, come on.

Ive been watching The Middle on Freeform (which was formerly "ABC Family Channel"), and I guess I'm wrong in assuming that they are trying to stick to the same format, but just changed their name. I can't believe they are running ads that say "Stay the FF at Home". I get what it means and the point of it, but... well, you know....
