In this live appearance, Tom Waits sings “The Piano Has Been Drinking.” The line “Jukebox’s been busted for sev’ral weeks” is substituted for “The jukebox has to take a leak.”
-
The Blue Brothers, the broadcast version has the swearing edited out, including Jake telling the Penguin that she’s “I guess you’re really up shit creek” was changed to “I guess you’re really up the creek.”
-
The Big Lebowski: in some broadcasts, Walter’s enraged question “You see what happens when you fuck a stranger in the ass?” became “You see what happens when you find a stranger in the Alps?”
-
The Jerk: Navin Johnson’s dog, Shithead, has a name change to “Stupid” for television releases.
-
Repo Man: “I call bullshit on that” overdubbed with “I call no way on that.”
-
The word “hell” silenced out of the TV version of Eddie and the Cruisers. Unfortunate, because the fictional band had a frequently-referenced album titled “A Season in ------” Sometimes the ------ was preceded by a aspiration as they cut off the “H,” so you got, more of less, "A Season in H-----* with the H vivisected, making it even more obvious.
