The PTC never learns: More '90210' hype
At this point, I'm beginning to seriously wonder if the Parents Television Council is on the payroll of the CW.
First, the PTC's supposedly derisive quote of "Mind-blowingly inappropriate" is used by the CW as a headline on a Gossip Girl ad. And now the PTC is going after the new Beverly Hills 90210 exactly when the CW is trying its hardest to hype the show.
Ostensibly, the PTC is claiming the CW's decision not to screen the new 90210 for critics or advertisers is the network's way of hiding some kind of ultra-lewd, culturally-destructive content from public scrutiny. (As we mentioned when we first wrote about this, we are hoping for naked Darcy.)
Does the PTC realize that releasing a statement criticizing a show for "glamorized drug and alcohol use along with casual teen sex, including threesomes" makes people interested in seeing it?

The CW doesn't show nudity - does it? Anyway, someone just mentioned to me that "naked Darcy" is too young for you. ; )
Hey, maybe they're planning to -- that would explain all the secrecy. As for Darcy being too young, she's almost 19!
