Here I am watching ”The One” on FX, and a scene ensues between Jet Li’s Bad Guy character from another universe, Yu-Law, vs. a hapless LAPD Cop from a universe which isn’t quite ours (where President Bush proposes Universal Health Care)...and the Cop tells Yu-Law, ”I SAID FREEZE TRASHHOLE!” I proceeded to laugh my a** off.
The actual line is: ”I SAID FREEZE A**HOLE!”
This brought back quite a few memories of edited lines from TV movies over the last thirty years. Another which sticks in my mind is the late Jackie Gleason in ”Smokey and The Bandit” where, as Sheriff Buford T. Justice, he always called The Bandit (Burt Reynolds) “Sumbitch”...which turned into “scumbum” on TV!
