Pinoy Bigbrother II

Dude, I will reiterate what I said on my 25 August entry:

....I am afraid that ABS-CBN's Filipino version of Big Brother would turn out instead another scandalous "Big Brothel House" as what had been reportedly seen in Big Brother houses in UK, America and Australia. It's okay to copy what is "in" (eg. reality tv) from Western countries for the sake of entertainment as long as the moral integrity, modesty and Christian values particularly of our young Filipino people are dutifully preserved.

Sobrang lungkot ako ngayon. Sobrang saya na sana ng PBB dahil medyo nakakarelate ako kina Franzen at Jason, at kahit na sobrang discontented pa rin ako sa pag-attend nila sa Misa sa TV. Super worried din ako dude sa bias na comment ng psychologist ng PBB okay lang daw at 'natural' lang na active ang kanilang hormones (kaya nag-kissing scene nina Sam at Chx). Dude reliable ba ang explanation ni doc. Magcocomment ba ang isang psychologist moral sa implication ng human bahavior? Di pa din okay kahit na alam ng lahat na nangyayari ito sa labas. Dude napapanood namin kayo at milyon-milyong kabataang Pinoy. Kaya dude, sobrang control lang po sa sarili.

The Movie Television Review & Classification Board has ordered the suspension of the hit reality show Pinoy Big Brother for exhibiting scenes that the board deemed beyond the parental guidance classification of the show. Pinoy Big Brother will not air on Sunday, September 25, due to the suspension issued by MTRCB.

In an official letter sent to ABS-CBN, MTRCB Chairman Maria Consoliza Laguardia stated that the September 19 (Monday) episode of Pinoy Big Brother contained scenes that were not suitable for TV Broadcast’s PG Rating despite previous verbal warnings issued against the show.

“Despite verbal warnings and instructions to tone down sexually suggestive language, actuations and skimpy clothing and to edit the subject program to fall within the parameters of Parental Guidance “PG” rating for television broadcast, the board has monitored and determined that the episode broadcast on September 19, 2005, to contain scenes, such as but not limited to, kissing scene between housemates Chx and Sam, gyrating dances in skimpy bikini, double entendre dialogue and use of skimpy bikini, to be beyond the parental guidance classification and not suitable for television viewing in violation of Presidential Decree No. 1986 and its implementing rules and regulations,” the order stated.
