I am of the view that no one should watch BET for anything other than videos. But, in general I don't watch it, that channel is the crown prince of hyprocracy.

They edit videos also during the daytime. I've seen stuff shown on MTV during the sametime that's unedited while the same video on BET is edited. BET does have some show that airs after midnight where they show some crazy videos.

Yeah BET IS NOT THE GREATEST OF THE cable channels I wouldn't be caught dead watching it, but I really like 3 strikes. Remember a friend of mine talked me out of seeing Momento to see it and we were fucking rolling down the aisle we thought is was so funny. Anyhow I gave up on it ans started watching Trauma center on Discovery Health.

the show that airs after midnight is called UNCUT, it's usually on at 3am
they show a lot of underground stuff that you'd never hear anywhere else, but in the past 6 months all they play is that damn crunk crap.
it used to be the greatest show... all about the p-poppin'
BOUNCE DAT ASS!!

I don't understand why any cable networks have to censor any shows. You purchase cable so you shouldn't be held to the same standards as regular cable. Fucking conservatives.

comedy central's 'secret stash', every saturday night, 2am
every week its a different movie or stand-up performance, completely uncensored.
i'll never forget the first time i saw jay and silent bob strike back on secret stash. i was counting the 'fucks' up left and right. i think i got to 150 before i stopped. fuck, fuck, mother mother fuck fuck. 15 bucks, little man.... put that shit, in my hand.

p-poppin by Ludacris was such a great video, and I agree that Uncut has really lost some of its luster lately.

I believe an avatar of a dog being forced through a sasuage maker is the only thing that would be vaguely appropriate.

Dude BET has no social redeeming value to the black community; hence the station is a "nigger" in relation to other channels. Are there irrelevant white orientated stations, yes, but I'm not too worried about white people. What I am worried about is the portrait that BET paints of blacks and how they are internalized not only by blacks, but whites as well.

Yeah BET is one pathetic offering for black people, except for Comicview and a few movies, I've never found any use from this channel.
Have any of you guys checked out the new TV-One channel yet though? They have a pretty good lineup of shows and movies for a fledgling network, hopefully this new channel will be what alot of us hoped BET would.

BET censors because they are deeply afraid of being shut down
Also watch BET early sundays you will soon understand they are pro-black christians
that would be the main target for BET = watered down black people without SOUL
The only real Black Cable Network you will find is HBO-Showtime
