This shapes up to be a riot; I mean fun. Let's see how the Church will handle it. I think that even Catholics will be amused by the TV series.

MTV Series Mocking Vatican Runs Into Trouble
.
A cartoon television series lampooning the Catholic Church is planned for German MTV in May. The Catholic Church in Germany has protested, saying it will try to persuade MTV not to air the show.
.
Father Nicolas, a clerk at the Vatican caters to an infantile Pope who loves horror movies and pogo sticks. He tries to stay righteous in spite of his attraction to vixen Sister Penelope and the evil machinations of three money-obsessed cardinals.
.
It's a cartoon series called "Popetown," a parody of the Vatican. And it is so controversial that the Catholic Church in Germany, where it is to be aired in May, is already trying to persuade MTV not to air the show.
