    Default China bans tv shows about things the government dislikes

    http://insidetv.ew.com/2011/04/14/ch...sy-immorality/

    The Chinese government’s State Administration of Radio Film and Television has issued new entertainment guidelines discouraging TV writers from creating shows about “fantasy, time-travel, random compilations of mythical stories…”
    apparently this doesn't extend to Hong Kong, though.

    Funny, that's what pulled my attention into the whole topic as well.


    I also thought TV was already censored like that for some time, I was wrong.

    Bright side?
    They just fixed it.

    The Chinese government blocks a lot of stuff, but they do a pretty piss poor job of it. They sell fake DVDs of any show you can think of, so people still get to watch whatever they want.

    Technically they don't "make" it, they just supply the labor and manufacturing.

    At that point I know that all I'll see are ads and some crazy religious people. I'll just surf the net instead.

    Well, I can understand a bit as to why they may not want stuff like time travel. Lately, there has been a lot of dramas that distorts a lot of the history in China from the Qing dynasty. Some younger generations watching it are getting their history mixed up etc etc.
