Line 66: === Live-Action TV === * ''[[Sabrina the Teenage Witch]]'': On a [[Jerry Springer]] clone, the Spellman family finds random words bleeped out, so that their arguments sound more heated than they really are. * The short-lived Jay Wolpert [[Game Show]] ''[[Blackout (TVgame ~~series~~show)\|Blackout]]'' effectively made a game out of this trope, a celebrity had to communicate a word to their partner, but instead of doing it directly with the contestant, they had to record it (while the contestant wore headphones). When it was played back, the other team could use a giant plunger to mute out parts of the recording to make the clue word harder to guess. * ''Jimmy Kimmel Live'' has a recurring segment called "This Week in Unnecessary Censorship", which consists entirely of this trope. So, for example, a clip of the President saying "I visited the Queen and we talked for hours" will have the words "visited" and "talked" bleeped out. * The writers behind the ''[[Match Game]]'' series loved this trope; many of the questions allowed the audience to go {{spoiler\|make up dirty words for}} themselves. Line 153: {{quote\|"I ''beep'' the spiders on the wall/I ''beep'' the cobwebs in the hall/I ''beep'' the candles on the shelf/when I'm alone I ''beep'' myself!"}} * Due to difference in cultures, some Australians are amused when commonly used words such as ''hell'' and ''damn'' are censored on some websites and message boards, making the censored words seem a lot worse than they actually are. * The [https://~~www~~web.~~webcitation~~archive.org/~~64uiCZ6Ax?url=~~web/20120121020758/http://ds.ign.com/articles/115/1153589p1.html IGN review] of ''[[Pokémon Black and White]]'' was "redacted" prior to the game's release to avoid spoilers. This resulted in humorous bits like this: {{quote\|But then he turns into ¦¦¦¦¦¦, who looks like ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ ¦ ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ ¦ narwhal ¦¦¦ ¦ drunk bear ¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦. ¦¦¦¦¦ conveys the image of ¦ ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦ melted ice cream sandwiches ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦ ¦¦¦¦¦¦¦ cigarette butts.}} * ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic]]'' [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ITr90v7UaNg with censor] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-yNoeEqIcQw&NR=1 bleeps].
