I think the Obama administration promised to back off on the harassment to the networks over such things. It DOES make the US look very backward compared with other countries and dampens what could be better drama. The networks want to compete more with the premium channels so they don't the restrictions placed on broadcast TV by the narrow minded Bush administration using the religious right as their "useful idiots." So talk may get "racier" on broadcast TV and is already on cable. I was watching the new season of "Rescue Me" which gets quite "racy" in subject matter and Fox has been driving for reducing some of the nonsense placed on networks since the "wardrobe malfunction" at the Super Bowl which resulted in Bush terrorizing Hollywood.
And I remember seeing full frontal nudity on PBS dramas back in the 1970s. Violence is a bigger problem.
