"Reservoir Dogs" on A&E 'Uncut' Now (8:00 p.m. CST)
NOT. They advertised it as 'uncut,' yet the word 'fuck' has already been dubbed several times in the first couple of minutes. Sheesh! Talk about false advertising! To be fair, I swear I heard a 'bullshit.'

1. No, it means the actors aren't circumcised
Seriously, though, i wonder if they mean, by uncut, that it's the extended version.

3. Actually, I think it's the violence.
The disclaimer said that it 'contains scenes of violence and the consequences of violence.' The 'consequences' is the important part. Remember, on the "A-Team" when they could empty the clip of an M-16 and never kill anybody?

Still, if I hear 'uncut,' I wan't a 'fuck' or two...

5. Yes. Bloody deaths are much worse than
the word "fuck". I have the DVD, so I'll bow out of watching it on cable.

4. Interesting, considering the FCC's ruling on the Bono 'fuck.'
Remember, Bono said 'fuck' during a broadcast of an awards show. The FCC ruled that, since it was used as an intensifier and not as a description of coitus, it was not a violation. (He said something like 'that's fuckin' unbelievable.'

6. I seem to remember a ruling on the word "asshole"
It was OK to use as long as you didn't refer to anything going in or out of it.
