Either I was in some strange twilight zone thingy... or they relaxed the regs on what you can air, or comedy central just is seeing what they can get away with...

South park the movie.

With not a single bleep, and not a second cut from it.

Was on late ( midnight - 1 am ish) thanksgiving night iirc...

any one know if they let them get away with that at night these days? Just curious...

When they first aired it, it was completely uncut. I mean how do air a movie with the word "uncut" with edits? You can't. I think they will allow it as long as it is late at night.

I was meaning that I've never seen it on TV at all before, didn't know that they have been running it. I would have expected to have seen something like what TNT or USA or someone did to spaceballs... I swear that was down to an hour when they were done...

Comedy Central has been doing this for the last couple of years. It was on last night too. It wasn't edited, but it did have commercial breaks.

I don't know about South Park The Movie, but MTV 2 aired "The Most Controversial Videos Ever" the other night which was completely uncut with cussing, nudity, violence, etc.. kind of suprising at first, but then again it was airing between 1 and 4am.
