It is a sad day when parents have to worry if their kids can watch certain channels due to the commercials that are being shown. Your commercials are entirely inappropriate! I am sick and tired of the gay community being shoved down our throats! You would think that a channel that plays things like Gunsmoke and Andy Griffith would NOT stand for this kind of nonsense! It is So disturbing to know that y'all have caved, like all the rest of the channels, and feel the need to push this crap on our families. I used to love your channel because I could watch shows with my kids "worry free" that stood for Christian morals and values, like Andy Griffith. Now I can't even do that! Either there's some rainbow logo junk or some sick gay commercial that makes me want to jerk every TV out of my house! So very frustrating! You people need to get back to good clean family shows! If things don't change soon, I will be cancelling services!

Desired outcome: ONLY Commercials that are geared towards Kid and families!!!

They are just trying to push the perverted woke crap on all of us especially the kids. Sit here trying to watch the Andy Griffith show and on comes a commercial with 2 [censored]s kissing. TV land should be ashamed of themselves.

I completely agree. A so called family network pushing woke c***. We blocked it in our house. They can corrupt other families where parents don't mind.

That depraved commercial about drag queen show is offensive. Disgusting and very inappropriate pictures of hardly dressed men with sexual innuendo is horrific and i cant let my children watch it. It's very offensive to me and my family. I am going to contact the FCC.

I really do not like to see the gay men kissing on a commercial. There is no right to subject people to this sickness. . But I am so fricken sick of seeing this on tv.

I do not need the gay sh.. thrown in my face.

I makes me more and more angry.

It turns my enjoyable day or evening into a gut wrenching nausea.

Stop this sh..

I Agree! I belong to a few clubs, card club, bus trip club, etc. We discuss this exact issue often, have not run across anyone who agrees with this outrageous nonsense. We boycott products being sold in these commercials, make lists, family, friends all of us feel exactly as you do. I feel most hate it but do not know how to go about voicing there displeasure. Catering to less then 5% of the total population, trying to indoctrinate our children, this is Pure Evil!

I was actually searching for a way to complain about this very thing to the company that owns TV Land when I came across this post. I watch TV Land to view shows like Andy Griffith, Gunsmoke and Bonanza and to get away from all the sickening material that is so prevalent in a lot of the new shows today. Now we can't even do that because every 5 minutes we have to view a commercial about drag queens or about gays in West Hollywood. I'm not sure whether showing those commercials because most people watching Andy Griffith and Gunsmoke are certainly not going to tune in to that kind of crap.

In fact, they’re not expecting to find new viewers who will tune in and watch . . . They absolutely know that there are young and impressionable children watching these wholesome broadcasts, with their parent’s blessing! The goal is actually very simple; INDOCTRINATION. Media owners invest only in a product that will produce returns! In this case, exposing children to new ideologies when they are young will ensure that these same ‘future adults’ think that this is all quite normal and a lot of fun to boot!

I always thought t v land was a family friendly network. In the middle of the andy griffith show a several minute stupid transgender commercial with men dressed like women comes on. This is confusing my kids and i'm so disappointed that now I have to block tv land. TV land has gone rogue. I'm completely disappointed after it being One of our favorite channels for many years.

Not anymore ! it's now blocked and off our allowed programs for our kids to watch .

Tv land, you make me sick.

These ads featuring gay sex on family friendly TV network is a clear attempt to attack family values and recruit innocent youth. It is filthy, perverse, and frankly demonic. So I come against this network in the name of Jesus Christ for as long as these foul ads play. Our complaints mean nothing to these people. I simply call upon Christ to to rebuke this network and cause enormous financial trouble and no peace to those executives who allow this for as long as these ads air. Let them contend with the one Who they really hate and mock.

I just spoke those words into my phone search engine, and this article came up. I am elated to see that I am not the only one who feels this way. In fact, I just got off the telephone with XFINITY headquarters yesterday, as they were responding to my letter of three weeks ago when I wrote to complain about inappropriate advertisements for television shows that are inappropriate for children and are actually playing on another network, MTV. I love the old shows that bring me back to my childhood, and to my loved ones who knew of the values that these television shows would instill in me. Please allow the children of today to learn those same values without having to ask mommy or daddy “why is that man is dressing like a lady”.
