Line 4:
* Just pause at 1:35 in the [[Wartime Cartoon]] short [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jI9QzNVJK1s&feature=related "Daffy-The Commando"]. If you look closely enough on the upper right, there's a Kaiserhof topless/nude pin-up poster on the wall.
* While producing the ''[[Looney Tunes]]'' shorts for Warner Brothers between the mid-1930s and 1946, the animators at the "Termite Terrace" studio threw in gags that obviously crossed the line, so the [[Media Watchdog|Hays Office]] would let more of their riskier gags into cartoons without being censored. (Presumably because they'd feel they had to give the studio a break sometime.) Some of the extreme jokes actually made it past the censors by mistake. (This makes this [[Older Than Television]].)
** My all-time favorite example: in ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blHmI1iHrJA A Tale Of Two Kitties]'', the two cats (based on [[AbbotAbbott and Costello]]) are trying to catch Tweety Pie. Catstello is standing at the top of a shaky, rickety ladder, while Babbit is down at the bottom shouting, "Give me the bird! GIVE ME THE BIRD!" (To which Catstello mutters, "If the Hays Office would only let me, I'd 'give him the bird', alright!")
** Another example came from the nature mockumentary ''Unnatural History'', where they showed a film clip of "a beaver damming a river". Just as the beaver finished building the dam, a big chunk of it breaks loose, water starts gushing through ... and the beaver starts jumping up and down, making garbled swear-noises. Dang, why can't I find this on [[YouTube]]?
