Finally [img]http://www.sadgeezer.com/ubb/smile.gif[/img] (drunken rant is almost over) Two episodes of Angel were cut from Sky One in the UK because they were considered too violent/pornographic/gory for cable tv viewers in the UK. If you think you have it bad, remember that we also have complete tosspot/dickhead/morons on the British Board of Film and TV Censors. (One episode was with Cordelia pregnant by a demon – yep, that storyline got the whole episode axed!).Ok, rant over [img]http://www.sadgeezer.com/ubb/smile.gif[/img]

Holey crap! First off, you’ve been tossin’ back a few of late, SadDude; I’m glad you’re not drivin’ to UnCon! [img]http://www.sadgeezer.com/ubb/smile.gif[/img] Second, preggars Cordy got cut in the UK? Wow, but that’s really not surprising, ‘cuz it’s okay to abuse women in our country, just don’t show them getting pleasured, that’s all. Raping ’em, killing ’em, blowing ’em up, demon-seeding ’em, demon-possessing ’em, stalking ’em, pimping ’em…I’m sure I left tons out but, all okay here. And, if the odd body part is kinda exposed during said activities, they kinda skirt it. But, let a woman do portray something that merely gives her pleasure, especially if it’s sexual, and watch those censors fly! So, we had no problem watching poor Cordelia knocked up by the demon brood over here! Geez, after that I think even [b]I[/b] need a beer. This brew’s for you, Sad! And, you censors can gai platz, g’dammit! [img]http://www.sadgeezer.com/ubb/tongue.gif[/img] (guess I told them! [img]http://www.sadgeezer.com/ubb/smile.gif[/img])
