The Parents Television Council thinks the boob tube is finally living up to its name.
A new study by the media watchdog group found that instances of "full nudity" on television are up 407 percent this season. The study, released this week, looked at depictions of nudity that involved nude bodies obscured by pixilation or carefully placed objects a la "Austin Powers." Comparing the number of implied nude scenes in prime time broadcast television this season with last season, the group found what it called a "shocking spike in full nudity." The analysis excludes animated nudity or suggested full nudity, the report said, and only includes scenes in which individuals are "completely unclothed and only the sexual organs are blurred from the viewer."
In its report, the PTC cited several specific examples of implied nudity, including an April episode of ABC's "Don't Trust the B," in which Krysten Ritter's character "saunters into the kitchen completely nude." Ritter's breasts are pixilated in the scene, and yet, as TheWrap's Tim Malloy pointed out on Thursday, the actress was not actually nude when the scene was shot -- rather she wore undergarments that were later hidden by the pixilation. The PTC also cited similar scenes on "The Office," "America's Got Talent," "The Bachelor" and even "Betty White's Off Their Rockers." In each case, the instances of nudity were merely implied.
Nevertheless, the PTC is concerned by the increase of such instances. In all, this season, it found 76 instances of implied nudity on 37 programs, compared to 15 instances on 14 programs the previous year. The findings prompted PTC president Tim Winters to fire off a letter to congressional members asking them to urge the Federal Communications Commission to move forward in clearing what it said was a backlog of 1.6 million indecency complaints.
"The networks have made it abundantly clear they have no intention of respecting either the broadcast licenses they've been granted or the public in whose interest they are licensed to serve," Winters wrote. "Therefore the American people, whose values are being assaulted on a nightly basis, must insist that the Federal Communications Commission vigorously enforce broadcast decency laws, as mandated by the Congress and affirmed by the Supreme Court."
Despite Winters' unmistakable fervency, it's not clear if implied nudity violates broadcast decency laws, and there is evidence to suggest that the courts have become more lenient in doling out fines to broadcasters. In June, the Supreme Court ruled against the FCC's policy on fleeting expletives over public airwaves, stating that it did not fully articulate its rules until 2004. That case, Fox v. FCC , involved hefty fines against the Fox network -- after Cher and Nicole Richie uttered a few dirty words -- as well as a 2003 episode of the ABC drama "NYPD Blue," which featured the buttocks of actress Charlotte Ross and did not involve pixilation.
Admittedly, though, that case left more questions than answers, as the court declined to address the larger issue of whether the government still has the authority to regulate decency over the airwaves. Broadcasters argue that such regulations are obsolete in the age of cable TV and the Internet, and the court's refusal to weigh in left many in the entertainment industry frustrated with what they see as judicial foot-dragging. "Creative media artists now likely face many more years of uncertainty as to what precisely is or is not indecent," wrote Jonathan Rintels, executive director of the Center for Creative Voices in Media, in a statement.
The Parents Television Council dubs itself as a "nonpartisan educational organization advocating responsible entertainment." Read the full results of its nudity study here.

To promote the second season of the hit comedy Don’t Trust the B—- in Apartment 23 , a topless Krysten Ritter , 30, strikes a sultry pose in a fake mugshot recently released by ABC. The actress’ costars, James Van Der Beek , 35, and Dreama Walker , 26, also pose for mugshots, though they both appear fully-clothed.
At the Paley Center for Media event honoring the show in Beverly Hills October 16, Van Der Beek — who plays a satirized version of himself — shared some secrets from the show’s new season with Us Weekly .
“The premiere episode deals with the potential reality of a Dawson’s Creek reunion. ‘Fake James’ has to figure out what that means to the legacy,” the actor explained. “‘Would it be good? Would it suck? Would everybody talk to him again?’ These are all questions that need to be answers.”
As it happens, Van Der Beek’s former Dawson’s Creek costar Busy Philipps , 33, will make a cameo in the episode. “In that same episode, Frankie Muniz will be on as himself, and Mark-Paul Gosselaar will stage a former teen idol intervention with me,” he revealed.
(Muniz, 26, played the titular character in Fox’s Malcom in the Middle for seven seasons from 2000 to 2006; Gosselaar, 38, played troublemaker Zack Morris from 1988 to 1994 in Good Morning Miss Bliss , Saved By the Bell and Saved By the Bell: The College Years .)
As for Ritter? “I feel so honored to play this character,” she told Us in June. “I get to be a complete bitch!”
Don’t Trust the B—- in Apartment 23 also stars Michael Blaiklock , Eric Andre and Ray Ford . Season 2 premieres Tuesday, October 23, at 9:30 p.m. EST on ABC.

Krysten Ritter, the “Confessions of a Shopaholic” actress, appeared on "Anderson Live" Monday to discuss her pictorial in the next issue of Playboy.
Host Anderson Cooper brought up the topic by saying he heard Ritter had an interesting conversation with her mother.
The 30-year-old Pennsylvania native, who currently has a starring role on the TV series "Don't Trust the B in Apt 23," recalled, "I woke up and saw a couple of missed calls from my mom -- she called at 6:30 a.m. You know when your mom calls that early, something bad happened.
"The message is like: ‘Um, Krysten, so, Ron’s hunting buddies are asking if you’re in Playboy.’ And I hadn’t told her. And she was like, ‘Um, I don’t know what to say. But I don’t want to have to buy that magazine.’”
After a few giggles, Ritter added, “So I called her and I was like ‘Mom don’t worry, I’m not naked. I did the 20 questions.’”
After reassuring her mother that she was not going to be naked in Playboy, she then tried to play a joke on her by calling back and saying she would be doing some explicit exposure somewhere else, and possibly even more publicly.
‘I’m not in Playboy, however I’m unavailable or naked in Times Square,’ she told her mother.
After watching the interview with Ritter, some viewers noted that considering she’s an actress, her mother might need to accept that her daughter might well appear naked in a magazine, or more likely in a movie.
Ritter’s interview with Playboy can be found in the November 2012 edition.
