The blowback against MTV's most recent foray into child pornography scripted programming continues. Hot on the heels of Taco Bell comes word that H&R Block, G.M., Wrigley and now Subway are also making a run for the advertising border, leaving the much-publicized show all wet with no advertising money to dry them off. Even the Post's resident curmudgeon Andrea Peyser is upset about the situation (no, not the person), in which the network is reportedly worried that the show's third episode borders on child pornography. She does, however, couche her concern with the valid point that this may very well just be a "ginned-up ploy for publicity." Having not watched the remake ourselves (but being fans of the original), we've been unsure of how exactly to feel about the matter. So we figured we asked a rabbi. And "America's Rabbi," Shmuley Boteach certainly had some opinions to share.

Breaking news: Fame cancels out conviction. Reality television star Jon Gosselin shared this late-breaking, profound information last night with celebrity Rabbi Shmuley Boteach and a live audience at New York City's West Side Jewish Center. He even begged the media to leave him alone, "Thank you guys for showing up tonight, but please, stop showing up... I didn't ask for this [fame]... I hardly ever go out in New York because of it. The paparazzi are everywhere here."
