Hollywood is still pushing the moral envelope on TV, and they are close to pushing it off the table altogether.  As offensive as television is now there are no signs that matters are getting any better.  Returning are such marathons of vulgarity as Fox's Ally McBeal, ABC's sex-filled Spin City, NBC's celebration of homosexuality, Will & Grace, which is planning the first "non-humorous" homosexual male kiss in the history of network television.
     Fox TV's new comedy Action promises to be one of the most offensive shows on TV this fall.  A review in The New York Times said of this show, "The pilot contains the first all-out barrage of four-letter words ever unleashed on broadcast television – all of them bleeped out, but easy enough to read," with graphic sexual content thrown in.  In other words they intend to turn up the heat on the intensity of profanity.  The creator of the series, Chris Thompson, boasts that the pilot will be mild in comparison to the show itself.
     The evil men in Hollywood are clearly waxing worse and worse.  It is hoped that Christians will be wise enough not to watch these, and the many other perverse offerings that are debuting this fall.  May we exercise our senses to discern good and evil, hold to the good and despise the evil? (Heb. 5:14).  Turn off the TV and turn to more activity in good works in the Lord's church, more reading of good books, but above all the Good Book!
