Ok, so i'm doing an improvised public access TV show called "No Strings Attached" and I have one scene that I am dubious about airing. My question is, should I air it?

I have to make a descision before the Weekend.

it's a little heavy handed for a public access show, i'd shelve it.

prolly a good thing i was borderline offended and wanted to slap someone watching it, and if it offends me it's definitly not appropriate for 99% of the normal world

I didn't get a chance to see it but now I am curious as to what could have possibly offended Doomsayer.

It's hard to judge from any standpoint whether someone will find something offensive.

For certain, the line that involved shoes was the strongest line by far and made me cringe whenever I heard it.

I thought that given the ridiculousness of some lines (eg: control from beyond the grave, wanting to kill all desenting voices) and the level of disdain that the other characters showed it showed that charcter to be ignorant and evil and thus balanced it out.

I wasn't sure, hence the question.

Thanks Doom, I appreciate your input - the scene is shelved.
