Quoted from Geoff


Do you work in TV? Sorry; I was just taking an easy shot: I'm always doing shtick and not a lot of what I say here is intended the least bit seriously.



Work in TV? Hardly! I'm a teacher. It was just my lame attempt at humor. Sorry!

Yup good old Georgie (Carlin that is) figured that out for us  

But yes I have recently heard more words on regular tv that shocked me...the B word for one.  And the other word for poop too.  I mean I say those words everyday of my life but I was still shocked to hear it on public television!  Even on the radio too I hear things.  I am used to satellite radio now too though so no censorship there.

After the 9 oclock watershed you can pretty much say and show anything on British TV .
A few weeks ago i saw a programme involving a camera a man and a women getting jiggy , and if i say it was a journey to the center of the earth , i think you will get the picture of what they show on British TV .
I was rather shocked , they would go that far .

Entertianing is a word not used on t.v these days  


Read the latest Story of Albert and find out the truth of The Battle Of Hastings and where it all went wrong for the English and indoor plumbing  .

you know, i really dont see whats the point bleeping out words. I mean you dont need a great mind to figuere out what the bleeped word is! So just bloody say it! My, and they say free speech.... Besides, naughty words go with a certain type of people you know. Like, you wouldnt hear the prime ministers opponent swearing about the prime minster now would you? and then you would assume to hear the naughty words if you watch some modern-street-men-movie or something.

But bleeping words in songs, now thats just silly!

For anyones info, did you know that the s word is not considered rude in Sri Lanka and it is used in tv....!

It's the same way in Canada: the censor goes to bed around nine or ten o'clock and you can show more or less anything after that. Maybe it's only US networks that get fidgety about the jiggy.

British TV as just about shown everything now Geoff apart from a live execution .
The jiggy used to be more arty now it's just porn .
The programme i caught had the camera strapped to the guy's meat and two veg , i nearly choked on my pizza as i was taken on a tour round the cervix .
And the C word is used far to much , i don't like that .

Any of you seen the show "Nip/Tuck" on the FX network on cable????  This show pushes the boundaries of what can be said on regular cable.  It's pretty racy for TV.

Oi!! Can't say I've seen anything like that over here; it sounds more like Anatomy For Dummies than erotica.  So I guess there's no need to get the cable or satellite hooked up again, then.
