'Sex & The City' Holds A Record!....For Being The Fastest to Show Nudity in Premiere!

[Brian Damage]

The premium cable channels, HBO, Showtime, and Starz, make their livings by selling consumers on the idea that they can't get the sort of programming these channels offer anywhere else. Some of what consumers can't get anywhere else, the premium networks would loudly proclaim, are world-class dramas, more complex and risqué than anything else on TV. Something else consumers can't get anywhere else, the premium networks proclaim a smidge less loudly, are naked people. On premium cable, there will be boob, or at least ass — especially on the dramas.

Sex and the City, provider of nudity in just two minutes and nine seconds — a record!
