I just heard papa boi drop three F-bombs. since when does FX allow the usage of the word fukk?

I remember they did it on that OJ series earlier this year. I'm not sure if they've done it with other shows though. Cable TV can use any words that they want, but most of them avoid the vulgar cuss words because they're afraid of scaring off advertisers (someone correct me if I'm wrong). I remember Mr. Robot using the F word on USA this year too.

I'm aware of this. but if this is so, why weren't shows like breaking bad, sunny in philadelphia and the walking dead dropping F-bombs?

why would FX allow this show more leeway? I'm fine with it, I just find it retarded. I mean, he said it like 3 or 4 times I believe.

I can't decide if Darius or Paperboi is the best character on this show.

paperboi got the facial expressions but Darus just exudes all kinds of "i don't give a fukk" which is hilarious to me.

this is why they are so effective as an on-screen duo.

The invisible car being legit

The shaky promoter escaping like a bond villain

This show is it

yeah that shyt was like a last minute throw-in joke that I almost missed. I had to rewind that joint, I was so hard.

don't get it twisted, a lot of these cats on tv are ivy league educated. shyt look at OITNB. it's a gang of folks who went to julliard for their acting training.

Cable isn't regulated by the FCC, you can say anything. It's all about the network and the advertisers. This year FX has obviously reached an understanding with advertisers that they're okay with it. AMC reportedly allows one curse word per season for their shows.
