Curt1591 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Last night, on History Channel's "Pickers" series, the boys came across Mickey Gilly. He sold them all sorts of "Gillys" memorabilia, including a neon beer sign. Well, in the interest of us from ourselves, Thai censors saw fit to pixel out the word "beer"!

GuestHouse Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 I suspect it was the Broadcaster who blotted the word beer out - for the reason these programs are broadcast across Asia and the Middle East. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DP25 Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 They censor all alcohol and tobacco on Thai TV. A neon beer sign is an advertisement for alcohol and that is definitely prohibited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThailandBert Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Funny how they think some things offensive like beer yet have no trouble printing pictures of dead bodies and body parts on the front page of a newspaper 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Payboy Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Funny that the prematch footy analysis and the actual game itself if full of Singha and Chang logos. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crossy Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Funny that the prematch footy analysis and the actual game itself if full of Singha and Chang logos. Must be advertising their soda water. Same in India, all the major alcohol brands sell drinking water and advertise it at the T20 matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The real product's quite close to water anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
