The BBC would like to announce that the next scene is not considered suitable for family viewing. It contains scenes of violence, involving people's heads and arms getting chopped off, their ears nailed to trees, and their toenails pulled out in slow motion. There are also scenes of naked women with floppy breasts, and also at one point you can see a pair of buttocks and there's another bit where I'll swear you can see everything, but my friend says it's just the way he's holding the spear. Because of the unsuitability of the scene, the BBC will be replacing it with a scene from a repeat of Gardening Club for 1958.
"How do you do? Mr. Carl Laemmle feels it would be a little unkind to present this picture without just a word of friendly warning. We're about to unfold the story of Frankenstein, a man of science who sought to create a man after his own image without reckoning upon God. It is one of the strangest tales ever told. It deals with the two great mysteries of creation: life and death. I think it will thrill you. It may shock you. It might even horrify you. So if any of you feel that you do not care to subject your nerves to such a strain, now is your chance to, uh... Well, we've warned you."

Now might be a good time to tell you all about the Motion Picture Association of America's fascinating rating system. Now, if a family wants to see a movie and it's rated G, then everyone can go: Mom, and Dad, and Buffy and Jody and Grandma and Grandpa and even Sergeant Scruffy! If it's PG, then there might be something unsuitable for young or sensitive viewers, in which case Buffy might have to stay home. Along with Grandma, who didn't want to go to the movies anyway. Now, if the movie's rated PG-13, it might have some material in there that mommy and daddy might not like, uh, some of the young kids to see, so Jody might just have to go home. Bye-bye, Jody! Now if the movie's rated R, then it's going to contain some a-dult material, in which case, Dad, who's got a lazy tummy, will probably want to stay home. But if the movie's rated NC-17 that means kids can't get in; only a-dults can get in. Mom doesn't want to see a-dult movies. But Grandpa was in the army, and he's not bothered very much, and so he decides to stay. Along with Sergeant Scruffy, who's just a dumb dog anyway.

"British Columbia may have stumbled onto something. There were no complaints about the BC ratings system because it was spelled out more clearly than most. Parents weren't lost in confusion about which letters stood for what. Nature did the work for them. If you slap a dangerous animal on there, the message is clear. This is how we can make better ratings systems in America: mascots. If there's a shark silhouette on Lollipop Chainsaw, a snake on Bridesmaids and a tarantula in the corner of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, there's no confusion there. They know to stay away!"
"Good evening. I want to thank Ross Roberts and Ford Division for their exceptional commitment to tonight's telecast. It's a tribute to everyone at Ford and its thousands of employees. And I want to thank Warren Littlefield and Don Ohlmeyer of NBC for devoting their schedule tonight to bring this film to the largest audience it will ever have. But first, I want you, and especially parents, to know that Schindler's List is more explicit and more graphic than anything you may have seen before on network television. I made the film for this and future generations so that they would know and never forget that six million Jews were murdered in the Holocaust and that history cannot be denied. I could not be honest to that history, or to the memories of its victims, without depictions of violence and suffering. So, while every parent should make a judgement for their own family, I do not personally believe this is a film for the very young. My younger children, for example, of elementary school age have still not seen Schindler's List. If they were of high school age, I would want them to. When the film was released, there was overwhelming support that it should be seen by high schools, and it was shown in theaters free to nearly two million students through the cooperation of this nation's governors. So, tonight, in your homes, you will experience the story of Oskar Schindler, a German businessman, a member of the Nazi party, a womanizer and a war profiteer, who saved the lives of more than 1,100 Jews. And now, Schindler's List."
"Good evening. I'm Bob Iger, president of The Walt Disney Company. Tonight, we're privileged to present the broadcast premiere of Saving Private Ryan, produced by DreamWorks and Paramount Pictures, and directed by Steven Spielberg. This film has been honored as one of the great cinematic achievements of our time. World War II veterans have also praised its achievement in accurately depicting powerful images of war. The film you're about to see is the same version presented in theaters. Its strong language and R-rated content have not been edited for television. Therefore, it is for mature audiences and not appropriate for children, especially considering the graphic images younger audiences were exposed to on September 11th. However, for the majority of viewers, this is an extraordinary tribute to a generation of ordinary Americans who rose to the challenge and secured our freedom. They inspired us then and they inspire us now. And now, Saving Private Ryan."

, also used on other fan wikis"Good evening. During the next 2 hours, CKND will telecast the Manitoba premiere of the controversial BBC production of Threads, a fictional docu-drama depicting nuclear war's shocking reality based on scientific, medical, agricultural, and psychological research. You will not be watching a pleasant drama. Some reviewers of Threads have stated that it makes last year's ABC production The Day After look like a walk in the park. However, it is educational, informative, compelling, and thought-provoking, and CKND, as a community-responsive broadcaster, believes it should be broadcast in Manitoba. Sometimes we need to be made uncomfortable by what we watch on TV, and it will be very difficult to sit through the next 2 hours without experiencing discomfort. And yet, Threads demands to be seen, both for its uncommon skill of presentation, and for its important subject matter. Threads tells the story of two families living in Sheffield, England, from one month before their hometown is devastated from a nuclear strike, through the horrifying and harrowing aftermath, graphically depicted over a 13-year period. Due to the nature of the content, CKND has decided this special program should not be interrupted, so we present Threads uncut, uninterrupted, and commercial-free. If you choose to watch it, we expect that you will also make your own decision as to its importance and its reality. Thank you."
—D.C. Brinton introducing the CKND broadcast premiere of Threads
"The drama you are about to see is a graphic depiction of nuclear war and its aftermath, a topic none of us like to think about. The decision to support this presentation was not an easy one. However, we decided that the quality and the sincerity of Threads made it well worth viewing. Living under the constant threat of nuclear annihilation should never become an accepted way of life. We can't afford to stop thinking and talking about it, because without awareness of what it's really like, and the strong will to change it, it will become accepted as the status quo, and a way out of this deadly game will never be found. The human race has shown it is capable of solving great problems, and in that spirit, I am privileged to invite you to watch this program which depicts, with stark realism, what no-one on Earth wants to have happen."
