Mediaboss Marketing

Television censorship isn't what it used to be. Back in the day, TV couples had to keep their beds separated, you couldn't say the word "pregnant," and Mary Tyler Moore almost wasn't allowed to wear pants. These days, things are more liberal. I mean, we here at The Soupshowed a 130-lb scrotum and got away with saying "wet muff" on TV. Repeatedly.

So imagine our surprise when we came across this clip from the original Flintstonescartoon from the early 1960's and heard what we're pretty damn sure is a dick joke coming out of Barney Rubble's mouth:

Here's the thing, though: The Flintstonesweren't exactly the apex of comedy, so we're hesitant to give them credit for this. The way we see it, this was either:

A.) A bad joke about Barney needing three heads to be tall B.) A bad joke about Barney not being able to count properly C.) A straight-up joke about Barney Rubble's caveman penis

Sadly, we'll never know the real answer, because the writers behind this joke were promptly executed for their transgressions against the censors. We're pretty sure that's how things worked back then.
