– father and his 10-year old daughter are walking down the street to school. City bus rolls by with a large poster advertising this Showtime television program with the title splashed on the side of it. -
" Hey Dad, what does SMILF mean"
" Southie Moms I’d Like To Fuck. "
– frightened silence –
Hey Showtime execs? How 'bout if you get your dicks out of the glory holes and your brains out of the 1940s ???
Is there a commonly-accepted Bowdlerized version? Like how SNAFU stands for “Situation Normal: All Fouled Up” or “FUBAR” is “Fouled Up Beyond All Recognition”?
At one point in the show the lead actress/writer/director wears a t-shirt from my old company from the mid-90’s. Since the show is set in Southie it’s possible that someone involved in the show worked for DEC or the costuming department has a sense of humor.
