Venezuelan TV channel has yanked The Simpsons off the air because it
may be inappropriate for children. Taking its place: Baywatch Hawaii.

Station spokeswoman Elba Guillen said Monday that the decision to hand
over the daily 11 a.m. time slot came after the National
Telecommunications Commission received complaints from viewers.

"It had to be taken off," Guillen said. "They consider it to be a
series that isn't appropriate for that time because it isn't
appropriate for children."

The regulatory agency didn't specify which elements of the program
were deemed offensive, but said showing the animated cartoon series at
that hour could violate national regulations prohibiting "messages
that go against the whole education of boys, girls and adolescents."
