I just got done watching the 4400 on my replaytv and I was flicking channels, and landed on the Osbournes on CTV. Ozzy just dropped the f bomb about 5 times a minute and nothing is bleeped. Its been on since 10, I just dont know how the crazy canadains get away with it :p and this isn't even really like hbo-type cable, its basic cable. Its also rated TV-14 :p

Heres the disclaimer I just saw as i was typing:

This program contains extremely coarse language throughout. Even some adults may be offeneded by the language. The program also involves mature themes and is not suitable for younger audiences. Viewer discretion is strongly advised.

It's probably b/c Ozzy uses the f-word like how we use the word.. "is" or "the".

CTV is just a general broadcast, over the air waves station. :) Canadian TV is great. When the Rolling Stones were in Toronto w/ AC/DC, etc last year they showed the entire show, topless women and all. Not edited. Also, F-words, whatever. Canada is very "liberal"

after 9pm EVERY tv station (ie regular over the air no pay cable stations) can show nudity or coarse language...
canada is a much less censored country than the US... except we are much more strict when it comes to making fun of slow (retarded)people and also racism is not tolerated on the airwaves... everything else pretty much is allowed
