Shouldn't it be "Getting Crap (In) Under The Radar"? "Past the radar" isn't really English idiom.
So common...Has anyone noticed how getting crap past the radar is becoming more and more common in KID and TEEN shows? Aren't there any angry parents?
Me, I don't mind, though the high amount of it I've noticed lately IS nearly disturbing and DOES make me wonder a bit.
in the halloween special of "Whats New Scooby Doo" Daphs? cousin mentions being 18 and tells Fred "I'm legally old enough to.....vote." and the pause is there. I think this the first major case of "getting crap past the radar" I've seen on a Scooby Doo show
What's with the icon for it on the "Radar" tab for shows? It's weird. I mean, who is that? What's it from? What does it have to do with getting crap past the radar? Sheesh...
Nobody's mentioned this so far so I think I will. Weird Al's new children's book has "Master Debator" as one of his possible career choices.
Deleted the fan fic folder.
Fan fiction usually doesn't have a radar to get crap past, especially fanfiction.net (which is where the fic from the first entry is at and I'm assuming the second). Heck, Lordryu TJ had an explicit (by his standards) Rape As Comedy moment in a "T" rated fic (Total Cartoon Island Reanimated, third and final chapter). Not to mention all the horrible Troll Fics that are rated "K" or "K+" or such.
Fanfiction
- In Kyon: BIg Damn Hero, Taniguchi happily mentioned that he has a voice acting role lined up for him the moment he turns 18. His girlfriend said suspiciously that there is no age requirement for voice acting. He replied defensively that for his role, he has to be eighteen. Given his character in the original stories, it's kinda obvious what he was thinking of.
- In chapter 7 of Diddy's Kong Quest, after escaping from some wolves, Dixie "made a two-fingered handgesture at [them]". Given that the fic uses British spelling, this is very likely to be the "fuck off" version of that particular gesture.
The links for all the newspaper comics outside of Garfield are broken and take me to today's strip.

South Park does indeed have a radar; take a look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Park_controversies for examples.
It's fair to say that while most of the time, South Park exemplifies Refuge In Audacity, sometimes it is — or is at least pretending to be — Getting Crap Past The Radar. And this is largely thanks to its continued success — it wasn't quite as bold in its first few years.
In particular, the owner of City ("Shitty") Wok, and other City ("Shitty") businesses, not to mention his City ("Shitty") Wall are repeatedly used.
And then there's Chocolate Salty Balls.
I mean, it's still a trope, even if it's shameless, right?
Sure, they had an episode with 200 uses of the word "shit" in literal usage, which is obviously not Getting Crap Past The Radar.
