Saturday Night Live Opens with ‘F’-Bomb coming from Megan Fox

They said Saturday Night Live would start its season with the fireworks that would come from guest host Megan Fox, rather than newcomer Milton native Jenny Slate.
During a late-segment sketch about a cable-access show called “Biker Chicks Chat,” Slate and SNL veteran Kristen Wiig used the word “friggin’” seemingly 12 times in every sentence. But during one line delivery, Slate accidentally let loose with the real obscenity that “friggin’” was supposed to replace.

“You stood up for yourself, and I f—–’ love you for that,” she told Wiig’s character. Except it wasn’t “friggin’.” It was, you know, the “F” word. Viewers on the East Coast heard it live, but the word was scrubbed from broadcasts in the Midwest and West.
Immediately after the slip-up, Slate, obviously aware of what she’d done, puffed up her cheeks and made a face. The audience went silent. Before Slate said “friggin’” throughout the rest of the skit, she seemed to hesitate ever so slightly, as if to be certain she was about to say the right thing and not something that rhymes with “duck.” No more violations were forthcoming.
“There was nothing dirty, just a slip of the tongue. It was frickin’ frickin,’ frickin,’ and then boom! The pain that Jenny is going through is, I’m sure, considerably worse than that experienced by anyone who saw it,” “SNL” executive producer Lorne Michaels told the Washington Post yesterday.

NBC had no comment, but word is, the network will likely get fined by the FCC, because, well, them’s the rules.Still, you have to wonder: Is this 2009? In a world filled with profanity - fourth-graders sing “I want to take a ride on your disco stick” - why does the F-word remain, in the words of “A Christmas Story’s” Ralphie, the Queen Mother of dirty words?

While “b----,” “a------” and damn are all ready for prime time, the F-word has yet to assimilate.Not for lack of trying. The F-word is the hardest working swear word in the English language. What a multitasker! A noun, adjective, adverb, pronoun and interjection, it’s the little profanity that could. It’s desperately trying to shed its salacious roots by being sort of the expletive’s Everyman.
