You Used to Be Able to Do That On Television
There was a time when children's television was irreverent, raunchy, dirty, and slime-filled. When caricatures of Tom Cruise cleaning toilet bowls and George Bush shooting Dan Quayle in the ass didn't lead to lawsuits or pundit freak-outs. When people actually got the joke. Yes, this was in the days of feathered hair and thin leather neckties, before Alanis Morissette sang naked in the street using her tresses to strategically-cover them private parts. It seems like folklore now, gone the way of unicorns and phoenixes, but You Can't Do That On Television really did exist. See for yourself, and remember.
