Yielding to pressure from regulators, lawmakers and interest groups, the country's biggest cable companies say they expect to introduce packages of family-friendly channels as early as the first quarter of 2006.
I hope it'll be cleaner than ABC Family. The station has some pretty good children's shows, but it's punctuated with sex way too much. Last week, for instance, I saw a program advertised that showed a couple coming off the kitchen floor, apparently in the middle of a sex act. It's hardly the first time I've seen something like that and asked my kids, "What station is this?" and they say, "ABC Family." Most frustrating.
