Just caught this...Mike actually swore TWICE!!! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

In the now infamous "Sergeant Emma" episode, Mike actually swore more than once. The scene when Emma summons everyone for early morning aerobics, when Mike and Carol are in bed, Mike says, "Emma and her exercises!", if you watch really carefully, he says something between "her" and "exercises", which is bleeped out. But it looks like he says "godd*mn". And at the end when he says "It's 3:00 in the morning" he looks like he's saying "godd*mn" again, not the "f" word.

On the DVD it is quite obvious that something is muted out, d

Up next on The Brady Bunch: What The Hell Happened Behind The Scenes, Greg is stoned...on camera!!

And later - is that a roll of quarters in Greg's pants...or is he just happy to see his stepmother?

^Yeah, or he lost his remote when Marcia was walking down the stairs!!!

I doubt if he said what is claimed. By today's standards, you couldn't even get away with saying godda**n on TV.

I doubt it too. The censors of that era wouldn't even show a bleeped out version on the air.

Actually, it wasn't until much later that they started bleeping out lips as well as sounds.

Actually, they blur out lips (and hands when making obscene gestures!) but this didn't happen until the 90s.
