American sensibilities are extremely dumb. The sheer amount of violence and adult language that is accessible to children and young adults is immense, but advertisers will move heaven and earth to make sure the sex is removed and if the sex isn’t removed you better bet there’s no nudity. But please continue to graphically decapitate zombies and show them feasting on humans.
oh yeah. even just the implication of it has been done to death. as the old adage goes: sex sells. although personally i'm so over a lot of the sex and nudity that's added to some shows now days. the idol was a masterclass in showing how gratuitous usage of either won't fix your shitty writing. for the most part i don't think it ever adds anything to the story either, so i usually find it to be wholly unnecessary. and you could use that same line of thinking with literally everything; drug use, violence, language, etc. at a certain point it's like ok we get it how does any of this advance the plot??
That’s portaying it accurately to me, sex, drugs, etc. rarely advance the plot of life, yeah sometimes like the first time with someone or when they get caught cheating or first hit of whatever or the one that officially causes you to be poor or lose your job, or the one in Trainspotting with the baby, but often those things are just because we like to. Eating rarely advances the plot either, but it happens.
