A pressure group known as The Parents Television Council has had their complaints to the FCC rejected. The group was formed by concerned parents wishing to make US TV more family friendly. Members file complaints with the FCC when they are offended.
The PTC objected to an episode of Friends in which a penis shaped cake was shown. 36 of their members sent in complaints that were flatly rejected by the FCC.
The same group also filed complaints against Will and Grace, The Simpsons and The Gilmore Girls. The FCC reviewed the segments and ruled that under community standards none were considered indecent.
