I think that there is a list of words that are unnaceptable for T.V (movies get away with it but programmes don't.South park is somewhat an anomaly) The top two or three in that list aren't allowed to be used at all. This is the U.K so I don't know if it applies anywhere else

P.S. The two words are ... maybe I should leave that alone
"I'd rather die than fuse with you!"
"Um...Vegeta, you're already dead."

Yeah, I think the censor review boards operate pretty much the same way, where applicable.

I take it they're insulting slangs?

Also, no bleeping out the bad words on MuchMusic like they do on MTV. Heck, our government funded channel shows some of the raunchiest comedies on Canadian television. XD

You remember when YTV aired uncut Endless Waltz? That was killer.
And...Showcase shows porn well
before midnight. How would I know? I have no idea. >_> <_<

Hey I once caught Showcase showing porn at 11 am! And I was channel surfing at the time, by the way you perverted thinkers!
