The television watchdog group One Million Moms is crying foul over the new show "Dating N-ked," accusing it of trying to make entertainment out of "trashy" talks about sex and private parts.
"Imagine the worst, most inappropriate, adult-oriented program on television that you can think of. Imagine it is being marketed and promoted to teens," the group writes on its website.
Sadly, VH1 has rated "Dating N-ked" as appropriate for kids as young as 14 years old.
The show uses a dash in the word "naked" to bypass Internet filters, the group says.
Its content is highly "provocative" and features not only nudity but also graphic dialogue, it adds. For instance, "strangers go out on dates while drinking and discussing s-x and their private parts for the duration of the hour-long program," the group says.
"VH1 should be ashamed to air n-dity and then call it entertainment. Even though the frontal body parts are blurred out, showing so much skin leaves nothing to the imagination and is soft p-rn," it adds.
One Million Moms is strongly warning parents about "Dating N-ked" because it is "packed full of extremely graphic content" as contestants practice irresponsible behaviour and have fun with dialogue about sex and body parts.
"This program is dangerous to our children's well-being, and 1MM is shocked that any company would be willing to sponsor or be associated with this show. Shows like 'Dating N-ked' can only stay on the air as long as sponsors underwrite it with their advertising dollars," it says.
One of the show's current sponsors is Sprint, an American telecommunications holding company that provides wireless services and is a major global Internet carrier. One Million Moms wants concerned parents to contact the company and ask them to pull out their ads to force the TV network to cancel the show for good.
"Dating N-ked" airs every Wednesday at 9 p.m.
