Parents need to know that the "F'N" in the show's name supposedly stands for "Friday night," but it certainly also suggests a word that's much less innocent. Real "f--k"s do occasionally slip out of the host's mouth, but they're bleeped. There's nothing particularly controversial (or new) about the show's concept. But the content of the videos and the histories of some of the artists make the series inappropriate for kids and tweens. Artists like Snoop Dogg -- who's well known for his associations with drinking, drug use, and sexual explicitness -- share the screen with the Pussycat Dolls, whose skimpy outfits and risqué dance moves are enough to give Grandma a heart attack. Smoking, drinking, loving, and fighting also appear sporadically within the videos.

Families can talk about why they think certain videos are chosen for the show (besides the fact that they're new). Do you think some make the cut precisely because they're shocking or feature half-naked women? If so, what makes those more appealing to put on TV than others? Also, what makes a video fun to watch in genearl? Is there a difference between a music video and a commercial for a product? What kind of values are the videos promoting? Do they agree with your own family's values?
