Television is loosening up big time.
When I was a kid they couldn't even show Lucy being pregnant with Little Ricky. It was a big deal and issue.
When Elvis came on the Ed Sullivan show the cameras were barred from showing any shots below the waste.
The doors were prohibited from saying the word "higher" in the classic song Light My Fire when they appeared on TV, but they said it anyway and were banned thereafter by the major networks.
You know that it would be untrue
You know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you
Girl, we couldn't get much higher
Come on baby, light my fire X2
Try to set the night on fire
The time to hesitate is through
No time to wallow in the mire
Try now we can only lose
And our love become a funeral pyre
Come on baby, light my fire X2
Try to set the night on fire, yeah
The time to hesitate is through
