It is not because we are FPMers and the program is being broadcast on OTV we should defend the program.

I don't take it as a political issue, even though 90% of those who are criticizing the program nowadays took advantage and started doing it out of jealousy and political reasons.

"LOL" brought this to itself, it was a very good and funny program attracting a very high number of viewers, and there jokes were moderate when they started, but it seems they weren't able to continue this way and thought that the high number of viewers will assure them a certain invulnerability.

And don't start by saying that Porn channels are everywhere 24/24. comparing OTV to porn channels is an insult.
Comparing OTV to street gangsters who repeat such kind of insulting jokes that were sometimes said on "LOL" is also an insult.
Saying that if you don't like the program you can switch the channel is also an insult to OTV, i know how hard FPM worked in order to have its own TV station so it can address to every Lebanese citizen, telling them now that they should switch the channel is insulting.
No dears, this TV will stay a respectable one, and those who wants to be sexually satisfied can switch the channel to a porn one or get themselves a sex partner.

A respectable TV channel should respect all its viewers.
OTV is not a porn channel in order to broadcast such programs after midnight as some proposed!!
This is a local TV station that's supposed to be directed to every Lebanese citizen whatever was its age.
saying that children should sleep at 8.00 is also a stupid idea and a recognition that the program contain inappropriate content.

If "LOL" and OTV administration really wants to shut up all those who criticized the program out of jealousy and political reasons, they should get their minds back and remember that every citizen(religious or not; conservative or liberal; adult or child) have the right to watch the program and laugh; where families(adults and children) can meet together and enjoy it without feeling that they should close the ears of their children on a certain moment because a stupid guest in the program ran out of jokes and wanted to tell an inappropriate one.
"LOL" should continue under these conditions, and in this way they'll keep their high level of viewers, there is a lot of good jokes that aren't related to sex and can make everyone laugh.

This is my opinion after all.

Regards.

everyone tell sex jokes, not only gangsters , sex jokes are harmless and nothing's wrong with em , OTV is free to broadcast whatever it wants to , this is a free country , even if it wants to broadcast porn , i have no problem with it (i will watch actually ) , Lol is broadcasted at the time when the children should be asleep , and it has the sign over 16 , everything is legal , lets simplify things .

lets say OTV is a man telling sex jokes along with political news and signing , he does these things all day long .

hes in a public place doing all of these things , everyone knows which time he says the political stuff , when he sings and when he tells sex jokes , he tells the sex jokes in the night , whoever wants to listen to him can hear , and whoever doesnt like it , he can go , but he has no right at all in attacking him and the people hearing him , he has no business at all with him , kel wa7ad 3a deeno allah y3eeno.

What if that man, who is in a public place, at a time when children should be asleep, decides to take his pants off?
Will you say, elli 3ajabo yettalla3 w elli ma 3ajabo yfell?

Even decent people tell dirty jokes, but they do it in private not in public.
We do it constantly here on the funny forums.
Bass 3ashan fi kamm jehlen we2fin in the middle of the street telling penis jokes doesn't make it OK to do it in public.

The OTV is welcome to broadcast the show on cable, satellite or the internet. But national television has to abide societies rules.

And regarding pornography on TV, I live in the most sexually liberated country in the world and I've yet to see a penis/vagina on TV (If there is a movie where it's shown, it gets censored).

I'm always astonished by the fact that even though you constantly speak against censorship, I can't write words like the F word on this forum without it turning into pretty stars.

Dirty jokes.
Not everyone likes to hear them. And definitely most people who want to hear them, don't want to be having a family dinner when all of the sudden a guy starts telling you why Abou el-Abed went to a gynaecologist.

Then that makes it the equivalent of a cable TV, satellite TV or the internet.
Those who are looking for this kind of thing can go there.
If you are looking for porno you go to the internet or to a strip club. You don't have a stripper in the middle of the town square and say that those who don't like it can look away.

This is also the case in almost all countries. If there is something to vulgar for regular TV then it can be spread through the three options I mentioned.
