* The ''Creator/{{ESPN}} 30 for 30'' documentary series ''Film/OJMadeInAmerica'' censors profanities like fuck and shit, but nigger is left uncensored. This was a very deliberate choice, as the series is just as much a meditation on American race relations as it is a chronicle of the O.J. Simpson murder trial.

This is the wrong trope.


* Parodied in ''WesternAnimation/AmericanDragonJakeLong'', where Jake's parents have a fight in the kitchen and turn on the mixer every time they use profanities.

** When “The Pandemic Special” premiered in Canada on [[Creator/MuchMusic Much]], it was uncensored with the odd exception of Randy’s line “The fuck is a pangolin?” This version of the episode was also uploaded to the Much website. Later, when Much aired a new version that was altered to replace the "[[BannedEpisode Super Best Friends]]" lunchbox picture, it aired completely uncensored.

* The now-deleted YouTubePoop "[[WebVideo/TheAngryVideoGameNerd AVGN]] Plays Pingas #1 on the Shit" bleeps out the word "fuck" when used as a verb, but not when it is used as a noun.

* ''WebVideo/TheAngryJoeShow'' very liberally uses angry swearing during particularly strong moments ("You dun' ''fucked'' it up!" is practically a CatchPhrase), and a RunningGag developed of completely failed censoring, usually by [[CensoredForComedy censoring the incorrect word]] (usually something really innocuous instead of actual f-bombs), but sometimes it not going all the way.

* When ''WesternAnimation/{{Shrek}}'' airs on Nickelodeon, the word "damn" is only censored ''once'' out of the multiple times it is used (in Donkey's line "Parfaits may be the most delicious thing on the whole damn planet."). The song "Bad Reputation" by Joan Jett, featured in the fight scene, uses the word several times, and all are intact. The movie's first use of the word, when Donkey's owner calls him "the talkingest damn thing you ever saw", is also uncensored. Much later in the movie, Donkey's line "No one likes a kiss-ass." has "ass" censored in the audio, but it remains uncensored in the closed captioning.

* The ''VideoGame/JustDance'' games are ''very'' inconsistent when it comes to censoring words. All but one of the main games in the series are rated E10+ (''Just Dance 2019'' was rated E), which means that many songs are {{bowdlerise}}d. The optional on-screen lyrics denote censored words with "[[SymbolSwearing ...]]". The very first game of the series did not contain any censoring at all with the only objectionable word being one use of "hell" each in The B52's "Funplex" and Rednex's "Cotton Eye Joe". Words are typically censored with mutes, distortions, or even re-recorded radio edits.

** Later on, most uses of "fuck" in text on the iTunes Store became uncensored, but they still seem to avoid having album covers with the word. For example, their release of the Buckcherry EP "Fuck" once had the uncensored cover art, but it now uses a version that is cropped to remove the word, only showing the circle with the big letter "F". However, as of 2023, all uses of the word in the song titles, except the first song, are uncensored.
