  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

Is there a television show that doesn't have a gun in it?

You just have to forget that it's Graham Linehan who wrote that because it never quite hits the same when you realise who it was. It's the same with IT Crowd and Father Ted.

Didn't know the name, but knew the shows. What an unfortunate piece of shit he is.

I had the exact same thought. Abandoning American productions is the best way, although it sometimes means reading subtitles. For example, many of these are free to watch:

I don't recall the last time I saw a gun on TV outside of an advertisement or the news, so I guess your mileage may vary.

Tons of 'em! Comedies, in particular, tend not to have guns. I watch a lot of UK light ent, particularly panel shows, which fit the bill.Then there's sci-fi (if you're cool with space guns), and shows set before guns were invented (other weapons may make appearances).
