I just signed up for the free OnDemand Howard Stern sample. Jenna's tits are pixelated and they bleep the word Bullshit (I think). What gives?

I had to fill out a form stating I was over eighteen. If they are trying to market an uncensored content outlet they are failing. At $120/year they need to lose the pixels and have something more than Sal humping Richard or old E! Episodes. At the very least, unpixelate or add animated tits and add the cursing back!

Howard mentioned this on the show. It won't be censored. I dont remember why it is censored on the website.

It will be totally uncensored on cable, both the old and new episodes.

The clip was probably a bad idea since it's misleading, but for whatever reason they didn't want an uncensored clip on that website.

The preview is Pixelated. Howard talked about that already. But the E shows are ALL being reassembled without the pixels or the bleeps. The old E crew are going back to the raw footage and having to re-cut all that stuff together.
& the shows will also have unaired footage from all the episodes.

Howard mentioned this in depth over the Summer.

Howard has definitely been promoting the uncensored nature of the content. However, the teaser is an old censored E! show. You only get one chance to make a first impression. It could feel like "bait and switch" to someone who is outside his broadcast domain. They should have a wealth of uncensored content in the can already. Remember Movielink? Honestly, a two minute uncensored piece to show us the quality of the content is not unreasonable. I sometimes wonder if these are conscience decisions or just shit that falls through the cracks.

I remember now, the reason that preview is pixelated is due to it's availability on the internet. Nothing more.

I'm not hating just want it to be good. I'm addicted so will gladly pay $10 to try it out.

If they showed it unpixelated on the website it could be considered a porn site.

They verify age for access to the teaser. Why do that only to show something PG-13 at best?

I'm surprised people that are nude and never thought that it would be uncensored arent pissed.

They probably signed off on it when they appeared on the show.

Am I right, Joey Boots?

They probably signed off on it when they appeared on the show.

There have been times when a girl's getting naked and says "no big deal, you have to blur it anyway" and Howard has said "I can still put it out uncensored on DVD some day." It's clear that whatever they sign allows for this, since Howard planned uncensored DVDs, there were those uncensored downloads for a while, and now they've talked many times about Doug uncensoring the old shows.
