"Freaks and Geeks" was the greatest show in a every long time. The best since "Square Pegs" . Quit teasing me.

Kemper now:
It's a family show. I question whether you actually watched it. Did
the clerk give you the name? Perhaps they lied to you or you misheard
the name. 

Still, it sounds as though you reacted, responding would be seeking
knowledge (of course, perhaps the clerks weren't very eloquent). 
Censoring is a knee jerk reaction... which I'm all for if porn was
being shown in the area of young kids, same goes for rated R or M
movie/shows.
