** How about Blair's fantasy in a season two episode? She is shown sitting in Chuck's limo while he kisses his way down her body. Eventually he disappears below her waistline and we get a close-up of Blair's face in complete exstacy. All while the song "''Going Down''" plays.

* ''DegrassiTheNextGeneration'' generally doesn't get ''anything'' past the radar in the States. In Australia, nothing past season 2 has been shown.
** Emma's molester feeling her up.
** Cursing is regularly deleted. Even words like "ho-bag".
** The episode about ecstasy was deleted from season 1, added to season 2 so we get to see Ashley's friends rejecting her for doing drugs, was extended so we make it sure we know nothing happened between Ashley and Sean, and [[MurderArsonAndJaywalking instead of replacing X with aspirin, Sean replaces them with vitamin pills]]. [[FlatWhat What?]]
** Craig's attempted suicide was deleted from his abuse episode, along with, in the B plot, Spinner making a comment about how JT's date with Paige was a wet dream.
** The rape episode became a three-parter, so we know Paige went after her rapist...Oh wait, as of season 4, he's found not guilty.
** Spinner's erection in the episode where Spinner gets an erection.
** A MaleGaze shot of Sean's bare chest in the first gay episode, interspersed with shots of Marco [[DepravedHomosexual licking his lips]]. Also, Sean calling Marco a fag immediately afterward.
** Three words: Accidents Will Happen.
** Eventually, The-N stopped editing the episodes. But they're even ''more'' butchered on other networks to qualify as "educational and informational".

**** Actually, it has more to do with advertisers than it does with cable companies. Some companies do not want the widget they're selling associated with shows that use saltier language. If a cable network relaxes their S&P rules, some advertisers will walk.

**I think early on they didn't want to overstep it with the censors. There were plenty of references later on, but in the first season especially, they tended to beat around the pot bush:
--->'''Hyde''': I can't believe they're gonna waste all their money on a stupid disco when they could buy a really big bag of *Looks at Red* ...caramels..."
***And sometimes they went overboard with the clueless parent routine for further emphasis:
--->'''Kitty''': I put some sandwiches in your duffel bag. Now, umm, why do you need such a big bag of oregano? \\
'''Eric''': Donna's...Italian...?
