AMSTERDAM - The Dutch may have liberal attitudes towards sex and soft drugs, but a TV show based on the daily life of a porn star has proved too hot to handle.
The Talpa TV network has cancelled "Op z'n Hollands" (The Dutch Way) after just two episodes, deeming it unsuitable for a family channel. The decision stunned both the show's production company and its star, Kim Holland.
"Maybe Talpa does not know what to do anymore to get high ratings," Holland was quoted as saying in the local press.
The porn queen expressed the hope that her show would be picked up by another channel in the Netherlands.
"Op z'n Hollands," in which Holland gives viewers sexual advice based on her own experience, was originally set for eight episodes. The show's production company, Eyeworks, said Talpa was closely involved with the program's format from the start.
