Most of those aren't too surprising, as most of the worst list seems to center their ads on "guy shows" that are TV-14.

But at first, I read this as "PTP releases list..." and I wonder who their best advertisers would be.

Is the PTC actually still considered relevant? I thought most people stopped caring about what those prudes thought.

They have definitely lost influence, though I suppose they still are not a negligible group.

My new goal in life is to be the number 1 worst on any PTC/decency list. I'm going to start paying for ad space on the worst shows and have the most horrible commercials ever.
