Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Does Comedy Central really go all out in their late-night airings, like the ads say?
I caught the South Park movie after midnight on Comedy Central a few months ago, and it was definitely uncut and unedited--all the harsh language and visible body parts intact!
Once upon a time, there was a broadcast corp (I don't remember what channel) that used to overdub all the cursing and it was REALLY annoying and yet extremely amusing at the same time. They'd attempt to use phrases that matched the mouth movements. And not the expected "shoot" for "shit." I remember only laughing to the point of tears over "fishsticks" in some gung-ho action shot.
I am fascinated by the increased swearing on the regular cable. And I LOVE IT.
Yes.
Except the FCC wants to regulate "indecency" on cable, so I hope the naughty words don't give them ammo.

Really?? Wow, because I was kind of scandalized (not really - I find profanity hilarious for the most part) sitting in the movie theater. On TV? I can't even imagine.
The Ministry of Reshelving is dedicated to the proper classification of fiction and nonfiction books. The current Ministry initiative focuses or relocating a total of one thousand nine hundred and eighty four copies, across all 50 United States, of George Orwell's _1984_ from "fiction" or "literature" to more suitable sections, like "Current Affairs", "US Politics", "True Crime", or "New Non-Fiction." You are invited to join us in our reshelving efforts.

Oh man, this reminds me of that Carol Burnett Show skit of a redubbed WWII era movie with Harvey Korman and Lyle Waggoner as sailors having a bar fight and yelling "Thank you!" "No, thank YOU!" at each other.

I've seen various Kevin Smith movies uncensored, so I'm going to say yeah. But I think it's weekends-only, not every night.

me too. Nip/Tuck is like an HBO show, except they don't say fuck. ("Cunt" might also be off-limits.)
I feel like they say "cunt" on Nip/Tuck, but it might just be obvious that that's what they mean.

My favorite from "Do The Right Thing" on network TV: "Mickey Fickey YOU!"
From The Big Lebowski: "That's what happens when you meet a stranger in the Alps!"
I've got replacements I use from when I was a nanny (or now, just around children.)
fuck-> fudge
shit-> scissors (it's a family thing)
don't give a flying fuck-> don't give a flying finn
There's one involving ducks, but it escapes me at the mome...oh. "lord love a duck" except that really isn't a replacement, it's just... something.
