On tonight's The Mole there was a challenge
to either be panted in the nude or paint
someone on the nude. When they showed the
studio of the artist who would do the painting
he had some sketches on the wall of nudes.
When these nude sketches were on screen
the breasts were blurred out! This is not hard
core porn people! This is legitimate art work
here and there was no reason to blur it out.

TyrC! who wants you to know that he does
not object to hard core porn on tv and actually
encourages it.

Damn, I'm sorry I missed the last 45 minutes of this episode! I would love to
have seen Kathryn (or whatever her name is with the auburn hair and brown eyes)
doing a little nude modeling...

So who got EXECUTED tonight? Like I said, I had to go out and I missed it...

HA! It was Kate who modelled nude, not Kathryn and, by the way, she now
has green hair, but I doubt the artist found it to be natural.;)

I caught that. The show turned me off with that kind of pathetic silliness.
One of the paintings was done entirely in blue and was a portrait of
someone's back and butt, but only the top half of the butt, yet ABC felt the
need to blur out the butt crack of the painting.

This is the same network that gives us NYPD Blue. So anyway, it was my first
time (and last time) watching the Mole. If ABC is going to act that stupid
with its viewers and treat them like children, then i'll just not watch.

It was Steven who was originally given the nude modelling task. Jim had to
have both his legs put into casts, Wendy had to wear a stockade (a wooden
bit around her neck with manacles and leg irons attached), and Kathryn had
to have her head shaved! Only Wendy did what she was assigned -- the other
three wimped out (although I can understand Kathryn's decision, especially
since she was getting married in a few weeks). Kate was given the
opportunity to take on all four assignments -- if the others had all done
their parts this would have doubled the money; if they didn't it would have
put the orignal $40 thousand they were playing for into play (oh yes and she
got immunity from execution). She did, they didn't. Kate is probably isn't
The Mole. On the other hand Wendy was some ticked off about the others
wussing out! (Henry, Charlie and The Jock had to do the laundry for all
eight of them -- but that's another story.)

10pm is the cutoff for most community standards. I agree that this
was silly, but comparing to NYPD Blue isn't a fair comparison, since
it is on after 10 (for that reason). Also, see my next posting
regarding SNL.

If he found it to be natural, he ought to sterilize the bathroom after she
uses it.
