Is TV Too Gory?

Can TV handle any more gore?

HuffPost's Maureen Ryan, said she worries about the ever-moving goalpost for what is an acceptable level of gore and horror on TV while horror author Stephen Graham Jones argued that horror is actually "...not in the gore, the gore is just a trigger to launch us into a horror space where everything is more intense."
