CBS is historically the most conservative of the Big Networks. ABC is
historically the most daring. NBC has usually held the middle ground.
KoshN...

What? I thought NBC was historically the most daring (e.g. NYPD Blue).
Donna B...
|
Uh, NYPDB was on ABC.
ANIM8Rfsk...
|
NYPDB?
New York Police Department Butt?
Donna B...

NYPD Blue, same show KoshN referred to, simply the acronym/abbreviation
often used for it.

I realized the mistake, but could not delete the posts until they
appeared on my system.

As others pointed out, "NYPD Blue" was aired on ABC, not NBC.
That was the first non-cable show to feature moderate nudity in Prime
Time. Years earlier, ABC launched the "Jiggle Factor" era with
"Charlie's Angels" and "Three's Company".

Yeah, but NYPD Blue jumped the shark when they had to go and show
Sipowitz's bare flabby ass.

YM "when Jimmy Smit's character died".

And, NYPDB used language that hadn't been used before. And, once it did, it
gave other shows license to do so as well.

You are out of your mind.

GW has adequate JLH nekkidness for your taste?
|
the Bede...
|
yes.....Love Hewitt doing nudity would be terrible.
ANIM8Rfsk...
|
Only from he standpoint that it would make us watch the show.

Because they don't want to be fined out of existance by the FCC.
