Should Netflix introduce a naughty scene censor feature?
A recent social media post stirred up excitement among thousands of fans by falsely claiming that Netflix had launched a new feature to remove sex scenes from shows like Bridgerton.

The buzz began when Bridgerton star Nicola Coughlan mentioned a PG version of the show for her parents, but it escalated when content creator Soren Iverson shared an edited image on X, suggesting an official announcement of this feature.
The image, creatively altered to appear like an official Netflix announcement, depicted Anthony Bridgerton (played by Jonathan Bailey) emerging from a lake in Season 2, with text below suggesting a “Skip the foreplay” feature to make family viewing less awkward.
Iverson’s post gained tremendous traction, reaching 27 million views on X, with many users expressing relief at the supposed feature. However, the excitement was short-lived as it was revealed that the feature was entirely fictional.
Well this blew up.
