PTC Bashes Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23 as Sexist, Promiscuous


It has a stupid title, we can all agree on that.

But the Parents Television Council believes the problems with Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23 - a new ABC sitcom that stars Krysten Ritter as a mean young woman in New York City and James Van Der Beek as her BFF - go far beyond it's name.

In a new statement, the PTCs says this series "is a sexist mixed-bag of hedonism, drug-use, alcohol abuse (including the main character plying a 13-year-old boy with alcohol to get him drunk) and explicit levels of promiscuity that are shocking even by today’s broadcast TV standards.”

The organization is urging advertisers AT&T and Volkswagen to boycott the program.

The PTC, of course, once trashed Glee for its depiction of teenage sex and also bashed Rihanna for her "Man Down" video.

What do you think? Is Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23 inappropriate television?
