Gah. What kind of a world is it when you can't say "Sweet zombie Jesus" on TV? That and "Holy zombie Jesus" got cut from the last two reruns of Futurama on Adult Swim on Cartoon Network. Well, "Jesus" got cut out, so Professor Farnsworth just said "Sweet zombie _____." I seem to recall there was an episode of The Simpsons where Homer said something similar that got cut out in reruns, but I forget.
I suppose that's one thing that is fueling the DVD sales of TV series -- the desire to see the uncut versions of these episodes.
I tried to watch a bit of Gladiator on ABC over the weekend, but they cut out a lot of stuff. They basically cut out 75% of the shots where people got hit, so you see people fall down and don't really know why.
Oh well, I guess they are owned by Disney...
