Originally posted by AKA I just got done watching the season 4 finale "The Interview," and my immediate reaction is "wow." What a wonderful, thought-provoking episode!
Is that the first time bleeped foul language was used in episodic (non-reality) television?
no, it wasn't the first time foul language was bleeped out on a TV show. I can remember it being done once or twice on "SNL" ("Saturday Night Live") in it's first season, which was the year before that episode aired.
