From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
James Gunn's PG Porn is a web series created by the
brothers James Gunn, Brian Gunn, and Sean Gunn. It consists of a
series of pornography spoofs, with a humorous event occurring just
before the supposed commencement of sexual acts. Each episode pairs
a mainstream actor with a pornographic actress or model. The
tagline is, "For people who love everything about Porn...except
the sex."
The initial episode premiered on Spike.com and received over a
million hits in a week, and was featured on Entertainment Weekly's The
Must List.[1] Spike
subsequently picked up the series for an additional 11
episodes.[2]
The project has, however, not been without controversy. The Huffington Post condemned the first episode
for glorifying violence against women.[3]
According to James, they developed the idea in the early 2000s,
before short-term Internet-based sketch comedies
became popular. Stephen Blackehart of The Good Boys
Productions produced the show with Jake Zim and Peter Safran of Safran Digital Group (SDG)
for Spike.com.[4]
