Don't want your kids watching TWD? Don't let them and stop expecting the world to pick up your slack.

Part of their argument seems to be that it isn't an "optional" channel, so by paying for their cable bundle they are "helping to fund this sort of thing". The whole thing is ridiculous... other than TV being entirely pay-per-view how can anyone expect to only be funding the things that they, personally, want to be on TV?

Also in the article... one of the guys quoted spouts on about the violence clearly being a replacement for good writing and storytelling, before admitting that he hasn't actually seen the whole episode and only watched clips of the most violent parts .
