USA NBC have dropped Spitting Image
after one show


Too intense for USA Church goers.

‘Spitting Image’ Producer Says NBC Backed
Out Of Series Because Of “Too Much Nervousness”
https://deadline.com/2020/10/spittin...bc-1234592851/
[The show hastily inserted a skit
on U.S. President Donald Trump contracting coronavirus before its premiere,
for example, and sends
up powerful tech executives including Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg.
It is the second time that NBC has not taken Spitting Image to series.
A U.S. pilot was produced for the network in 1986 — Spitting Image:
Down and Out in the White House — but it was never picked up to series.]

Deadline has contacted NBC for comment.


Sign Of The Times.
