'2 Broke Girls' is the subject of numerous FCC complaints for racial, sexual jokes

The CBS sitcom 2 Broke Girls has made its name on jokes based on sexual innuendo and racial stereotypes, but those jokes have now landed the show in some hot water with multiple fans.

The site GovernmentAttic.org reports that 91 viewers filed complaints with the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) about the show in the last two years. The complaints range from "vulgar language and inappropriate sexual references" to claims of the show as "soft porn" to the liberal use of the word "vagina."

"I do not watch much of CBS programs because of the constant sexual innuendo & language and can't understand why the government over site [sic] is so loose on what can be seen and said on regular TV," wrote one viewer from Massachuestts to the FCC.

One particularly troublesome episode for some viewers was a Nov. 2012 offering that contained multiple references to anal sex.

"Two casual references suggesting anal sex on a first date," one Indiana viewer wrote. "Are there no standards anymore on broadcast television?"

But the complaints have not seemed to slow down the show all that much, as 2 Broke Girls, now in its third season, hauled in 7.6 million viewers and a 2.3 rating in the adults 18-49 demographic for its last new episode in Dec. 2013.

As E! Online points out, television critics have taken issue with the show for quite a while. A Television Critics Association panel in 2012 turned uncomfortable when some critics challenged series creator Michael Patrick King (who also created Sex and the City) about the type of comedy on the show.

"I don't find it offensive, any of this," he said at the time. "I find it comic to take everyone down...being a comedy writer gives you permission to be an outsider and poke fun at other people...I think our jokes are classy-dirty."

Whitney Cummings co-created the series, which stars Kat Dennings and Beth Behrs.
