This photo is NOT it — we’re sparing you!

Yes, this is the big version of what's on all the billboards.

Let it be known I'm all for this show — I liked the pilot, and plan to watch more. It's a horror show, and people who want to watch can see it in its 10 p.m. time slot when it premieres on Sunday, July 13.


But as a parent of small children — not to mention an adult human being who hates worms coming out of eyes — I'm surprised to see this image on public streets. I live in fear of my 4-year-old noticing it (he would cry, literally) and have taken to driving out of my way to avoid places where I know the billboard is.
