Overly censored on regular TV.

All best parts are rendered benign and it's barely worth watching. I think I've seen every other kind of perversion unfiltered, even during day light hours. Plus, I've had to explain erectile dysfunction to an 8 year old. So what's the big deal with a little more blood and gore in Gladiator?

Yeah as a rule of thumb I nrver watch my favorite movies on tv for that reason. Its not even that they edit the gore, they also edit for time constraints,language, sexy scenes etc. Between all that, the film usually gets totally butchered. Why even put it on TV if youre gonna do that but I guess it gets ratings so whatever I guess.
