The Insanity of Universal's Censorship Policy

I've been bemoaning for some days the illogicality and downright stupidity of the episodes Universal won't show at 5pm, not to mention the words they fade out.

I think you'll all agree that yesterday's wins the prize.

They had no problem with showing Mis-Labeled, complete with body cut in half and little boy infected with HIV because of contaminated blood products. However, when it came to the pubic hair (which they had already mentioned) caught in a watch strap, they were so coy. Goren asks the owner if it got there when she was "caressing him intimately". The idiot censors cut out the "intimately" and left it just at "caressing him". The woman still says, "You ask the strangest questions" though.

HELLO, UNIVERSAL, YOU ARE RIDICULOUSLY PRUDISH SADDOS.

I think their censors are actually closet perverts afraid of giving themselves away.

Perhaps the Universal censors are closely related to the Botophucket censors......

They show "Frasier" on the Hallmark Channel here and they censor that show all the time. It's ridiculous. Can we possibly all grow up????

That's why I love shows on HBO and Showtime.

In France, they're not so prudish. They've only censored 'Enemy Within', the scene when Bobby talks about the sex life of the old man with his widow.
