I love this TOOTSIE FROOTSIE comment 💜

It's like Stephen Fry said on one of his interviews with Craig, it's unfortunate that what's considered most offensive is a word for sex, when words to describe the worst sorts of violence are used in casual conversation. Messed up priorities.

Censorship is a very tricky thing.. and overly (ab)used for silly stuff like a late night show.. kids learn about these words one way or the other, and we should be teaching them the impact they can have. personally, I try not to swear a lot.. because when I do, it adds power to what I'm saying (could be serious, or a joke)... imo, they should've completely censored the beheadings years back during the iraq 'war'. those videos were shown for sheer sensationalism, and empowered those awful people

I agree with ice cubes take on it with his kids "I know you're gonna swear but you'll be in trouble if you let me or another adult hear you do it" Gives them the practice of knowing when to and when not to.

@@werwerqweqwe, what an ignorant & callow take. Swearing, distinguishing language for different interactions, having the option of heightened & inflammatory language - none of that is "wholly unintelligent", neither in practice or concept. And the adjective discerning is a distinct word from the verb. But by all means keep reaching more desperately, it's hilarious to watch.

Words don't have an intrinsic power. We make them up. WE decide whether their "acceptable" or not. It comes down to an irrational fear by parents that children will hear them and copy them. And that fear comes from the fact that we have arbitrarily decided that certain words are "unacceptable". So it's a self-reinforcing, irrational social fear. We don't want kids to hear them. Why? Because they're bad words. Why? Because they're not appropriate for kids. Why? Because they're bad...and so on.

is that why they had the flags for censors?

Cussing is normal in Scottishlandshire. The under 5’s gold star kindergarten class

Comedian George Carlin once said describing the word "fuck": it's a word used to describe the creation of life when 2 people make love, and it hangs around with words like "love & life", yet we use it to try and hurt each other as in "AH FUCK YOU". I just thought it was ironic & memorable.

Agree!

Take a tip take a lesson, you'll never get by messin', with the fellas from the freakin' FCC .

I actually know a lot of people who wont/dont swear when bad things happen, some of them had their house bin robbed. so some drama films are like real life.

with Craigs show i think its funny, when they bleep out a curse of a puppet it isnt neccery to go pixilating but i find it funny.

The censors.

That doesn't make a lot of sense to me.. i think the difference is appropiate use in the right context of nakedness, cursing and what else.. full on nakedness and sex is appropiate in porn movie.. cursing like an irish dockworker in front of a child isn't.. I think in craig's show, it's appropiate to curse.. it's an adult show.. even 12 year olds know those words already.. we shouldn't be censoring, but educating kids that in common day life, these words are usually inappropiate..

LOL Cause afterall CBS cares.

I don’t get it. Even tho I don’t cuss, I’m like the only person in existence who doesn’t. So, who cares? If you cuss, go ahead!

The FCC :P

He is absolutely right!! On British tv, there is only a couple of words edited out of a show (depending on the channel its on). and nudity is not a biggie either,...anyways, i think the only thing funnier that pixilating Craig's mouth, is when they put up the flag over the mouth and use a phrase from that country...like "OOOhhh LALA" for france...or "kriky" for Australia...Plus not much else funnier than Geoff Peterson as the gay robot sidekick, that guy is funny as shit most of the time

Words are bad, ban words. Sex/nudity bad, ban them. Murder, rape, torture, kidnapping, etc, ok 👍 👌 it can air anytime, anyplace without restrictions. That will sure help the kids grow up stable ... but if they end up violent, it must be video games, music, pot, etc. that did it ... yep, that's the ticket.

Well there are a lot of painting with naked people and thats alowed to. During the 2e WorldWar there was a theather with naked women standing still like pantings and sculptures and it was allouwd. So it think it the differance between moving and standing still, real and fake.
