how soon until the F word and breasts are shown on television?

The Hillary Clintons of the world will never allow TV to show what they don't have.

They're on tv now.

At least kids today don't have to rely on scrambled channel 99 images.

Are you referring to network or cable? While premium channels have dropped the F Bomb for years (every HBO series ever comes to mind), AMC recently did it once per season on Breaking Bad.

Pretty strange society we live in where shows on TV have gun fights and people not getting hit and everyone is fine. Or other shows where people are brutally murdered.

Violence is fine. But god forbid someone sees a woman's nipple.

Oh. I can hardly wait. Wouldn't that be so exciting!

In the free world you just blocked porn for everyone who didn't opt out.

I think some people on this forum are straight up idiots. I think everyone who is older than 10 knows that HBO, Shotime, Cinemax, etc show boobs and say anything they want.

I actually don't think boobs will ever be shown on network television. I don't think there's enough movement or demand for that to happen. If it ever happens, it'll be long time from today. I think for awhile now, there's been a trend of celebrities not stripping anymore. With internet porn and everything, I don't think it's in as high demand as it used to be. Hence, Playboy is dying.

I think we will see more F word being used maybe in 10 years.

If you can't hear the F word or see breasts on TV you need to get cable or satellite like 90% of Americans. Then there's an overwhelming amount of it.

As to showing "brutal murders" on TV, which TV show is that? There are plenty of shows that show PRETEND murders and SIMULATED violence. None that show actual murders and killings as far as I know. If you have cable or satellite you can see plenty of actual nudity and sex and plenty of simulated and implied sex on network TV. If you are going to compare violence and sex at least compare apples to apples - that is, real violence to real sex and simulated violence to simulated sex.

How young are you people? The breast exposure at least has already happened. From Wikipedia:

Throughout the United States, many metropolitan areas had independent television stations that were not affiliated with any of the national networks and showed programming only to people within their limited broadcast range. During the 1980s, many of these stations experimented with showing frontal female nudity in movies during the prime time hour.

KTLA in Los Angeles, for example, showed an unedited version of Academy Award-winning One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, which features fully exposed female breasts, between 7:30 and 11 p.m. The channel began the time slot with a video of director Miloš Forman stating that the film was too controversial to be allowed a faithful television broadcast (NBC's earlier broadcast had cut the film to fit the two hours format with commercials), but that KTLA believed that the culture had changed such that a complete broadcast would be tolerated and appreciated. Then, it was followed by a disclaimer that was repeated after each commercial break.

KTVU in the San Francisco Bay Area regularly showed uncensored films that contained nudity, such as Magnum Force (Suzanne Somers), Big Bad Mama (Angie Dickinson and William Shatner), and Walkabout, which features full frontal nudity in a scene with teenage actress Jenny Agutter skinny dipping.

A number of stations in this era even went so far as to run promotions during which they would show a series of movies known for nudity in an attempt to get higher ratings for the week. In almost all cases, the nudity was restricted to showing exposed buttocks and female breasts.

By the end of the 1980s, most of these stations had started to receive complaints about such nudity and these broadcasts eventually stopped. In addition, some of these stations became Fox affiliates and were no longer able to make independent programming decisions during prime time.

From early 1990s until mid-2000s, some primetime series (such as ABC's NYPD Blue and Once and Again,[1] CBS's Chicago Hope [2] and Fox's John Doe) experimented with nudity. NYPD Blue is noteworthy for featuring nudity in the context of people engaging in sexual activity. While fully exposed female breasts were never shown, the show often depicted full back nudity of men and women, usually in darkened rooms.

In 1997, NBC broadcast an unedited version of Steven Spielberg's holocaust movie Schindler's List in prime time. The film features brief full-frontal nudity of both sexes in non-sexual contexts. Then-congressman Tom Coburn criticized NBC's airing of the film for its nudity, violence and profanity. Both Democrats and Coburn's fellow Republicans criticized Coburn for his reaction, and defended the film and NBC's choice to air it in full. Coburn subsequently apologized for his reaction.

What do you mean there's not enough demand for boobs? I demand to see boobs!

Breasts have already been shown on network television. They did a full breast shot on Chicago Hope back in the day. I think they did it on another doctor show as well.

Even on lr neither the F word nor breasts are allowed. :(

Dude, you cut off my quote! I'm saying that you can easily get your boob fix from the internet very easily that I don't think there's much demand for people to sit around waiting to watch some boob shots on TV. That's why I'm saying that Playboy is dying, and not many recent celebrities do nude scenes anymore.

Not soon enough...
