    Like I said, I do think it’s related to that, I just don’t think it was censorship. Probably made something in the episode untenable and so Matt and Trey decided to change it themselves.

      Something untenable… Like having most of the episode be jokes about a guy who just got an emergency tracheotomy performed from 300 metres away

        Very likely yes, which would have de-railed any message they are trying to push with the show. Them self-censoring is more than likely a good thing, if that’s actually what happened and I would be inclined to believe it. By delaying they can probably come up with far more relative critiques of what has happened afterwards.

          Exactly, and it’s really easy to imagine them waiting for shifting public opinions to see how long the kirk dick sucking would last
