Your overseas pubcasting update

The Evangelische Omroep channel of the Dutch public broadcasting system has canceled plans for a comedy show in which "non-religious comedians were asked to poke fun at Jesus," according to the NRC Handelsblad website. Some viewers threatened to cancel their membership. The working title: Loopt een Man Over het Water, or Man Walks Over Water -- a play on the "A man walks into a bar..." jokes. [Initials of Dutch broadcaster corrected.]
