Well, FX is seen as the "racy" cable channel for some reason.
Also, 'shit' has even been allowed on a slim amount of network TV. I think that will probably be dead since Janet Jackson (when it made news, it was on "Chicago Hope"). Darn FCC hasn't laid out what is and isn't kosher so now radio and TV broadcasters are EXTRA conservative. Thanks Bushie!
Cable could technically do whatever it wants, but they fear industry regulation if they pushed the envelope to HBO/Showtime color.
