A Load of Shat

NEW YORK — Concerned parents everywhere have put out a moral hit out on television’s biggest threat: William Shatner.

Continuing a career that refuses to end, Shatner is the star of a new CBS sitcom entitled, (Bleep) My Dad Says, which is scheduled to air this fall in prime time.  The show is based upon a popular Twitter feed and subsequent book, and the  “bleep” is supposed to signify a stinky expletive that has left high and mighty (whitey) parents with their panties in a bunch.

The group Parents for Television that Emulates Only Touched By an Angel and Seventh Heaven sent angry letters to scores of advertisers urging them to boycott the show unless the indecent name is changed.  A spokesperson told us, “Concerned parents don’t want their kids avoiding homework after an afternoon of playing extremely violent video games by watching this profanity laden show.  And I don’t think that companies that advertise want to have their product associated with ‘bleep.’   Unless their business is entirely about ‘bleep,’ like Charmin toilet paper for example.  Come to think of it, Charmin could get rid of those godforsaken linty-ass bears in their ad campaign and just shove a roll in Shatner’s mouth as an official sponsor of the show. That’s only IF the show refuses to bow to pressure from a small but vocal group and change its name, which would be ill advised.”
