I wonder where it's going to be like is 5 or 10 years time. Today's audiences will get used to the present content and demand more radical content. The series producers are going to try and out do their opposition and make their content more radical. It's going to get worse, guaranteed.


Well seeings as we had such movies as 'I Spit On Your Grave' and 'Cannibal Holocaust' for around 35 years and there's been nothing that's any more violent or 'radical' than those movies has ever appeared in that time. I'm not sure 'it's going to get worse' claim can be supported.
You are correct, however I was thinking more in the lines of TV shows as opposed to movies. I know it's a subtle difference but the trend for TV shows becoming more radical seems, to me, to be growing.

Give example here. I'm not seeing much in the way of radical TV at all. I'd love to see these shows you're talking about.
Criminal Minds. I watched it this week and I thought that it was drama to the extreme for a TV show. Buying limbs and killing people to supply the need for those limbs.
