Florida Family Association is declaring Michael Eisner’s perverted cartoon Glenn Martin DDS that targeted children on Nickelodeon as a failure. The show has not aired on their advertiser supported Nickelodeon network in several months and was pulled from sister channels MTV2 and Comedy Central. Additionally, no new episodes have been produced during the past year.
Former Disney CEO Michael Eisner started a new company where they created a cartoon that contained a considerable amount of sexual content. Some examples of the Glenn Martin DDS content which are inappropriate for children include:
• Glenn has phone sex with car navigation voice.
• Brother and sister tout their incestuous relationship.
• 13 year old boy cites porn magazine.
• Mom has intimate relationship with 13 year old boy.
• Parents engage in handcuff sexual bondage.
• Young adult females kissing in pool.
According to an August 14, 2009 New York Times article Michael Eisner sought out Cyma Zarghami, the president of Nickelodeon Television, about airing his new perverted cartoon titled Glenn Martin DDS. Sadly Nickelodeon started airing Glenn Martin DDS that month.
The Florida Family Association office started contacting advertisers after the first episode. Nickelodeon’s parent company MTV decided to start airing the program on MTV2 and Comedy Central. The Florida Family Association office responded by writing the companies that advertised during this show on these networks also and sent out email alerts that encouraged supporters to send emails to these companies.
Both MTV2 and Comedy Central pulled Glenn Martin DDS from their channels shortly after Florida Family Association’s first email campaign. However, Nickelodeon continued to air the program even though they demonstrated signs that the show was in trouble with advertisers. The network frequently changed the day and time when it aired Glenn Martin DDS. Florida Family Association continued to contact advertisers and sent our email alerts for supporters to send emails to companies that advertised during the show.
MANY COMPANIES PULLED OFF THE SHOW. Florida Family Association office emails to advertisers and supporters’ emails to advertisers in response to email campaigns appear to have influenced the following companies to stop advertising during Glenn Martin DDS: AFLAC, American Express, American Honda Motors, AT&T, 3M (Scotchman, Scotch Pop Up, Post-it notes), Activision Blizzard (Tony Hawk Ryde), Adidas (Reebok Shoes), Barnes n Noble, Bayer Corporation (Aleve), Bissell, Dell, Dippin Dots, Burger King, Dr. Pepper Snapple Group (7 Up), Energizer Holdings (Playtex Gentle Glide), Ford Trucks, Fruit of the Loom, Garanimals, Geico, Haribo of America, Helen of Troy (Infusium23), High Tech Computer Corp.

Glenn Martin DDS has not aired on the advertiser supported Nickelodeon network in several months even though TVGuide.com reports the program will air. The show was pulled from sister channels MTV2 and Comedy Central. Additionally, new episodes have not been produced for the show in over a year. The non-advertiser supported Nickelodeon “Toons” channel is airing the show which is a clear sign that advertisers have overwhelmingly rejected the cartoon because the sexual content is inappropriate for children.
THANKS to Florida Family Association's supporters, Michael Eisner’s perverted cartoon aimed at children has failed.
