I was downright relieved last night that my 6-year-old was happily playing a CD-ROM game upstairs at 6:25 p.m. when an ad for the movie Meet the Fockers came on during the local news.
Now I know the word Focker isn’t quite the “F” word—that is, of course, the whole joke. But couldn’t this ad have aired, say, after 9 p.m.? Or perhaps, since this coming star vehicle is a comedy, couldn’t the movie’s marketers have gotten cute or coy in the way they mentioned the title of the movie at such an early hour?
Oh, wait, that wouldn’t have worked.
