I've seen a bit of this show and I hate it. It is not only unfunny but offensive and inappropriate for young children (which are supposed to be part of their audience).
The offensiveness I mentioned comes from a scene where the characters are engaged in a spelling bee. A student is asked to spell the work jerkt*rd.
This shocked me and honestly caused me to cry. I myself have a developmental disability (autism) and had a brother with autism and down syndrome, so this would understandably upset me.
In what way is a horrible slur appropriate for a child? Especially as children as young as 5-6 watch this show.
You're Skitting Me's use of this word disgusts me. If there's one thing I know about kids it's that they tend to repeat words. This means that children could end up using horrible slurs without realizing it.
I hope that this horrid excuse for a show is taken off the airwaves forever.
