Watchout Ecuador!  The Simpsons, a show that has been on the air for two decades, may be corrupting your youth:

Teleamazonas said it would no longer be allowed to broadcast the often satirical exploits of Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie, between 6:00 am and 9:00 pm, pending a government investigation.
A government-backed regulator will assess the program’s impact on “boys, girls and teenagers,” and wants to restrict its broadcast “to assure the protection” of younger audiences.

The article goes on to note that the show got shifted to 5:30 in the morning in the meantime and that a different channel was sanctioned last year for showing this corrupting yellow filth during family time.  I guess silly, paranoid, Helen Lovejoy types exist the world over.

Useful Legal Tidbit

Even though it’s obvious to anyone with a functional frontal lobe and a shred of morality we feel the need to include this disclaimer. This website (which openly advocates for the cancellation of a beloved television series) is in no way, shape or form affiliated with the FOX Network, the News Corporation, subsidiaries thereof, or any of Rupert Murdoch’s wives or children. “The Simpsons” is (unfortunately) the intellectual property of FOX. We and our crack team of one (1) lawyer believe that everything on this site falls under the definition of Fair Use and is protected by the First Amendment to the United States Constitution. No revenue is generated from this endeavor; we’re here because we love “The Simpsons”. And besides, you can’t like, own a potato, man, it’s one of Mother Earth’s creatures.
