In my country Simpsons bans you!
Russian lawyer wants The Simpsons banned from his country.
"Mr Smykov wanted to have the cartoon series taken off the air in Russia, or at least shown at a later time, claiming it promoted drugs, violence and homosexuality."
Usually a country waits for the Simpsons family to visit them before they get pissed off at the show but one brave man has decided not to wait until then.
The lawyer is taking his case to the European Court of Human Rights. I wonder if recent epsiodes such as the one with 50 Cent and the last Treehouse of Horror count as human rights abuses (hey, I love the show but let's not kid ourselves here)?
For a more positive take on The Simpsons read writers and former show runners Bill Oakley & Josh Weinstein answers questions from the fans on NoHomers.net.
