Things in old tv shows they wouldn't get away with today

[Whitty Hutton]

Was watching some old Wayans Bros and thought about how some stuff from these old shows wouldn't fly today on network tv.

- Drill Sargant calls Marlon a maggot........Marlon: "I ain't no maggot. You the one that asked to see MY John Hancock"

- Marlon hates on a Jamaican dude and calls him a "batty bwoy" in mock accent

- Female Judge: "Can the defendant rise?"
Marlon: "Maybe if you toss my salad"

batty bwoy might fly on tv cause the mass majority of people do not know what that word means (unless they are from england).

There's a saved by the bell episode where Slater gets all zealous about his Mexican heritage. Zach looks at the camera, cracks a smile and shrugs "I always thought he was Italian" and the laugh track goes off.
