I think Hey Arnold wants profanity in their cartoon! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I was watching Hey Arnold today and as usual I had the Closed Captioning going and I saw two profanity lines:

Helga says: "This Bites" but the closed captioning states "This Blows"

and in another segment

Arnold Says "What the heck is wrong with you, Helga?"
The Closed Captioning states "What the hell is wrong with you, Helga?"

Weird.

Oh, and I"m against ANOTHER season of Friends

Nah...most likely that's just the CC. They have to make that dialougue really quick and they probably just either wrote hell on accident, or found hell easier to write than heck...?

Good point. It is very difficult to catch every character's/actors' dialogue word-for-word.
