CA 2405416

A method and system for enabling program blocking provides advantages over conventional parental controls. According to an exemplary embodiment, a system such as a television signal receiver enables a user to designate a title of a program to be blocked. Program blocking is performed by preventing display of a video portion of the program, and further preventing display of the program title in a given display region, such as an electronic program guide and/or a channel banner. An audio portion of the program may also be blocked. A user may remove the program blocking function by, for example, inputting a predetermined password.
