Funny..

They replace all the normal "bad" words, all the way down to replacing "ass" with "ax".

BUT, they let "beloved patriot" and "sand *****" through.

WTF is with that?

What always cracks me up is when they bleep the god in god damnit, but not the damnit. Or the hole in asshole. :confused:

And the ironic thing is that here on ATOT, I can say "fuck", but not "*****" (infamous N-word)

Even the "-ah" version of said word is *'d out.

I have seen boobies (actually full frontal) on Bravo before and yet they edit out these words, kinda weird.

I watched a channel called "IFC" last night, there was a special on indie movie sex. shoed everything, penetration, oral, etc.

Strange things on TV these days. :)

Why would you want to say this? In every context, it's derogatory and a mindless generalization.

EVERY context? You fail at interpretation. I have no need to say this, obviously, you didn't read the entire thread.

Well obviously you can get anything you want on the right TV stations, but Bravo isn't a porn channel, or even a premium channel where I live. The basic package at my parents house has Bravo and not HBO or anything like that. The point isn't that I was suprised you could see boobs on TV it was that they didn't censor the boobs but censored the bad words. At least on your porn channel they didn't censor out the bads words so its not as hypocritical. I just find it funny that Bravo thinks its bad for kids to hear the word "fuck" but OK for them to see boobies and graphic violence.

IFC IS NOT a porn channel,it's Independent Film Channel and in some markets not a premium channel.
