3Some Opposition Not Passing ‘Laugh Test’

After on-air promos for tonight’s upcoming show hinted at a sexual threesome, the Parents Television Council has asked affiliates of the CW network not to air the episode.

Airing the teen tryst, which is being teased in an ad as a “3SOME,” is “reckless and irresponsible,” the nonpartisan education group’s president, Tim Winter, said in a statement Wednesday.

“Will you now be complicit in establishing a precedent and expectation that teenagers should engage in behaviors heretofore associated primarily with adult films?” Winter said, adding that it is “expressly targeted to impressionable teenagers.”

Although a CW spokesperson told the Associated Press that the median viewer age of the series is 27 years old, Winter said in his statement that “such a claim doesn’t even pass the ‘laugh test.’”
