MTRCB summons the people behind the hit TV show "Till I Met You" for the steamy love scenes which aired earlier this week

The Movie and Television Review and Classification Board (MTRCB) issued a letter on November 2 which said that the October 25-28 episodes were "inappropriate" for television since the board only gave the show a "Parental Guidance" classification.

The letter also said that they are being summoned because the board received numerous negative feedback from "both social and conventional media".

The episodes in question include a sex scene in a car, "casually" saying the word "sex" and a "sexually teasing" bath-tub scene

While it was true that eyebrows were raised during the Oct 25-28 episodes, didn't the "steamy" scenes fall under MTRCB's classification of "Parental Guidance" or SPG?

According to MTRCB's website, Parental Guidance is classified as:

"Parental guidance suggested. Material for television, which, in the judgment of the BOARD, may contain some adult material that may be permissible for children to watch but only under the guidance and supervision of a parent or adult."

The negative feedbacks were composed of concerned parents who thought that the scenes were "too steamy" for television

But other people on social media expressed that since it is rated SPG, parents should be responsible for their children

They're actually angry and some aren't even JAdine fans. They call it "selective censorship".

They also argued that Til I Met You was already moved to the 3rd time slot

Who do you think is at fault? The MTRCB or the makers of Till I Met you?
