Harry Potter "without" the bleeps - Abc Family commercial
Posted on 10/14/14 at 3:08 pm

So my wife was watching the Hunger Games on Abc Family this weekend and apparently this week is Harry Potter week. To promote this abc has been running a commercial imploring people to watch the movies " without" the bleeps. It shows a few scenes from the movies with some well timed bleeps.
It may be juvenile but even after seeing this commercial over and over again I still
. I have to say I would love to see one of the movies like this, although it may get old after a while. Anyone else seen this and thought the same thing or just me?

Abc family has to be the best example of false advertising today.
Almost everything on that channel the last couple years is anything but family friendly

they don't actually want the "Family" apart of the name.
They are legally required to keep "Family" as part of the name. They are also required to air The 700 Club.
This is all due to stipulations Pat Robertson and his son put in the deal when they originally sold The Family Channel to Fox. Micheal Eisner caught a lot of shite when Disney bought it b/c he apparently didn't realize that they were going to be forced to keep "Family" in the name and air The 700 Club.

Ain't that the truth.

Yep, basically it just shows Disney movies, movies based on young adult fiction novels, and teenage aimed soap operas.

I fricking hate ABC Family. I'll be looking at what's on TV and see Forrest Gump and get all excited. then I see it's on ABC Family and I get mad. They made Home Alone and Happy Gilmore un-watchable by censoring words like hell and damn. And you can notice that they speed up the movie at times during certain movies (ex. You'll notice people talking WAY faster than they do in the normal film cut).

No, that would be The Learning Channel.

My favorite ABC Family advertisement ever has to be for Remember the Titans in which they point out Kate Bosworth and Ryan Gosling as being the star draws, like they're major or even meaningful characters/actors in the movie.

Bosworth has about 40 seconds of screen time. I don't even remember Gosling in that movie.

He had like two lines in the whole movie. His big scene was dancing in the dorm room annoying his black roommate.
