{{quote|'''Miles Standish''': Begone, pests, and
'''Yakko''': [[Flipping the Bird|We'd love to, really]], but the Fox censors won't allow it.|''[[Animaniacs]]'', not content with just [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]] for once.}}
Writers who have to deal with censors on a daily basis love nothing more than to make fun of those corporate bastards who ruin their fun, usually by [[Getting Crap Past the Radar|slipping in something that they hope the censors wouldn't notice]].
Line 19:
** When [[Schoolgirl Lesbians|Chizuru]] becomes one of the Karakura Rangers, Uryu (as the commentator) notes that only one of her attacks can get past the censors.
* In the first episode of ''[[Lingerie Fighter Papillon Rose]]'' "New Season". Papillon Rose was about to do her "Pinky Vibrator" attack from the original hentai-themed OVA, but Rama stops her before she can say the full name, claiming that the censors won't allow them to do that any more.
* At one point in the ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'' manga, a panicked Konoka readies a [[Relax-O-Vision|censor image]] and [[Think of the Children|protests that children are reading the comic]] when Jack Rakan begins getting a bit too perverted. [[Played for Laughs]] because the series is a hot-and-sexy PG-13 ''at best''.
* At several points in ''[[Kodomo no Omocha]]'', Babbit interrupts Sana—or complains too late, after the fact—that she's doing something that isn't allowed in a children's anime.
* One scene of a [[Show Within a Show]] in ''[[To Love Ru]]'' included the [[Magical Girl]] telling a guy who'd done something nice for her that, in thanks, she'd "have [[Sound Effect Bleep|XXX]] with you!" He responded in shock, "Is that alright? This is a kid's show!"

Line 67:
{{quote|'''Peter Furler:''' It might behoove me to be heaved/ Head out like a human comet-
'''Larry the Cucumber:''' Uh, guys, you might not want to rhyme with "comet" }}
* Eric Idle, on ''[[Monty Python]]'s Contractual Obligation Album'', sings "I Bet You They Won't Play This Song on the Radio". They go through a lot of different sound effects instead of using the usual "bleep".
{{quote|You can't say **** on the radio
Or **** or **** or ****
Line 73:
"I'd like to **** you someday"
Unless you're a doctor with a very large **** }}
** One [[Summer Replacement Series]] on [[CBC]] Radio used "I Bet You They Won't Play This Song on the Radio" as their theme song. Bleeps and all.
* In Georges Brassens's song ''Gare au Gorille'', a couple of young women are watching a gorilla in his cage, looking at "A precise point that my mother rigorously forbade me to name here". The song ends on a similar note.
Line 79 ⟶ 80:
* In ''[[No More Heroes]]'', {{spoiler|Jeane}} doesn't want to tell Travis about her [[Dark and Troubled Past]], because it's awful enough to jack up the age rating on the already M-rated game [[Up to Eleven|even further]].
{{quote|'''{{spoiler|Jeane}}:''' "[[Development Hell|What if the game gets delayed?]] [[Vaporware|You don't want this to become]] ''[[No More Heroes]] [[Duke Nukem Forever|Forever]]'', [[Take That|do you?]]"}}
** As a compromise, Travis agrees to fast-forward through the story so the audience wouldn't be subjected to it. [https://web.archive.org/web/20120614063538/http://chipandironicus.com/games/nmh/21.html For those of you who are curious enough...]
* In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie|Banjo-Tooie]]'', Banjo stops another character from swearing by reminding him that "this is a family game."
* In Doom RPG, picking up the BFG displays a message that says "We'd tell you what this stood for but this is a family game."
Line 128 ⟶ 129:
* On ''[[Road Rovers]]'', when sicking [[Ax Crazy|Muzzle]] on some bad guys for some [[Battle Discretion Shot|offscreen violence]]:
