The local PBS station here used to (maybe they still do) play foreign movies such as "My Life as a Dog" late night. I think they also played "kids" a few times.
I can't believe I saw this on a basic cable/satellite channel!

I find it very annoying when a movie is full of bleeps. I do not particularly care for a movie overloaded with the F word, but the constant bleeps make it harder to watch. Plus, they bleep out many words that are not even cuss words to me.
I'd rather they just bleep it, the overdubbing is the worst.
It makes me laugh really I like it because it is funny.
"Shut the frog up you mother lover."
How can that not be funny.
Couple of episodes of St. Elsewhere I can remember $h!t uncensored.
That would be NYPD Blue 1993 - 2005.
While NYPD Blue was a ground breaking show that featured quite a bit of nudity for broadcast TV, it was pretty much all 'brief nudity', which is the naked rear end of a guy. The infamous episode 'Nude Awakening', which featured Charlotte Ross' rear end while going to take a shower aired in 2003 near the end of season 10. The lawsuit over that scene didn't get thrown out until 8 years later.
For the language, if you pay attention, they never say the s-word by itself, it was always BS.
I tried watching Smokey and the Bandit a few years ago on TBS with overdubbing. It probably made Jackie Gleason roll over in his grave!
Still don't understand why only the USA OTA censor the s-word? Other country's even Canada don't.
Canada doesn't censor much of anything on OTA TV.
Like I posted in a different thread a little while ago, in the early 2000s CTV aired The Soprano's completely uncensored. No editing of nudity, sex scenes or any word being with S, F or C.
Living within range of many Canadian TV stations, my first exposure to The Soprano's was not on HBO on Dish Network, but from CFTO channel 9, the CTV affiliate in Toronto with my Radio Shack antenna.
"The Sopranos" set to make conventional network premiere, beginning September 17th on CTV

And while I never really watched the show, I landed on it a few times on CFTO, The Osbournes didn't have any beeps or blurs either.

Gone are the days of Ozzie and Harriet where families could watch TV together without being surprised by unwanted nipples or F-bombs.
By the way I just watched the New Twilight Zone and I was surprised because I heard vagina, sh.t, (not even crap) and some F-bombs, I guess that if Rod Serling were still alive to watch a reboot of his series, he would die.....
I grew up when it was the kind of show that I could watch as a kid with the whole family....but then again, gone are the days of Ozzie and Harriet, Father knows best, Leave it to Beaver, gone are the days, when gay meant something different than it does today, etc....

They knew exactly what they were saying when she said “Ward, don’t you think you were a bit hard on the Beaver last night?”
