Weird thing with the ''S'' word


In one scene, Tyson says the "S" word and it's not bleeped. The word is said two more times later and it IS bleeped. What was up with that?

I wathed the episode on YouTube. I only noticed it being used once, and that one time it was bleeped.

I know I heard it said at least two times unbleeped in the second episode.

I noticed this in the first episode too. Not bleeped the first couple of times it was said, but then bleeped out another time. I wouldn't be surprised if it was being bleeped out due to context. I mean, is there a difference between saying "you piece of *beep* versus "this *beep* is wack"? Cable network censors work in mysterious ways. I remember the same exact thing happening on Comedy Central during an episode of The Daily Show. The word *beep* was allowed some of the time and then bleeped other times.

**Oh, and for the record, IMDb censored my post ^^. They replaced the "S" word with "*beep*".

They unbleeped it in the Nov. 24 episode too. I, too, wonder why the censors are doing this so haphazardly.

It's to achieve a lower age rating. One s*** is OK, but multiple s**** would bump up the age rating. *beep* is beeped all the time 'cause it would immediately get a much higher rating unbeeped.

They do it with films as well; a s*** gets you a PG, one *beep* a 15...anything more is 18. But obviously not many films go for beeping. The *beep*
