What was most brilliant about comedian George Carlin was the way he got seven words officially cancelled off broadcasting altogether. Carlin's essential 1971 Class Clown LP routine about the "seven words you can never say on television" was the subject of a landmark Supreme Court indecency ruling seven years later that reverberates still, three decades down the road.
We have a bit of a perverse streak here at Brilliant But Cancelled. So when we think of Father's Day, we don't think of earnest Ward Cleaver, or nice Mike Brady, or even Homer Simpson. We think of Ken Titus.
Yes, the drink-this-beer-kid, pull-your-pants-down-in-public, tough-lovin' carouser of the Titus sitcom.
