Parents may be shocked when they discover that the once family-friendly 'Wheel of Fortune' game show is no more. Unfortunately, the recently added puzzle category 'What the Fun' aims at a mature, modern audience with insinuated profanity making it no longer suitable for family viewing.

It is not the show it was with this implication of the f-word. This is unnecessary in any program, especially one marketed for the entire family. Parents will have to explain to their children that the primetime program they were once allowed to watch is no longer a clean show.
I don't think so, Tim.

Really says something about the mothers when they automatically go to Fuck instead of Fudge for the replacement.

This is bound to give Wheel of Fortune a ratings boost.

I mean, it's kind of a no win situation to be a game show right now. Your only viewers have like one or two decades left at best, so do you try to attract new ones you have no chance with, or try desperately to retain the ones you... also have no chance with.

The same people who would boycott Wheel of Fortune over a category named "What the fun?" are the same ones who think that the Epstein files are a hoax and that Donald Trump is a wonderful, moral person

The real news here is that One Million Moms is still around. I really thought they'd been dissolved at some point in the late 2010s.

I thought one million moms was actually just one person saying the most insane shit imaginable.
It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha."

I'll always remember this sad little group because back when Cracked was good, it had an article on them getting all pissy about Archie Comics having a gay wedding.
https://www.cracked.com/blog/how-archies-gay-friend-proved-internet-can-do-good

One Million Moms is a website based on intolerance and the inability to count. It's named the same way a kid might call himself Commander Badass Boobtoucher: desperate wish-fulfillment and blatant lies. Despite being an entirely online group, they only had about 40,000 Facebook fans, an accurate count both of their real support and of how many moms don't know their kids have already blocked them. By their math, I could call my dick the Pleaser of Luxembourg and it would be more accurate, because I'm only short about half a million people.

Also with noting that One Million Moms was founded by Donald Wildmon, a Christian Nationalist that most assuredly wasn't a mom and in fact was very much a man.
The commercial says that Church isn't for perfect people, I guess that's why I'm an atheist.
