Censorship on Television

When a movie is shown on television it is never in the original theater version. The movie is cut in certain parts in the interest of time, certain scenes such as sex scenes or excessively violent scenes, and of course all the words that cant be said on basic cable are changed or cut out which can lead to some very hysterical edits. While i understand the importance of keeping children from hearing some of the language that is changed around, a lot of these edits are terribly done and are unnecessary too. I don't understand either why these edits are the same at all times of the day. I highly doubt that at 2am if I'm watching Samuel L Jackson's greatest masterpiece, Snakes on a Plane there's going to be any young children watching it too thus making the very comical edits in the video below unnecessary. These edits are good for a quick laugh but they also ruin a lot of dialogue in these movies and sometimes even begin to ruin the entire movie if they start happening too frequently and become too outrageous. The FCC which regulates what can and cannot be said or shown on all major media outlets is ruining the directors creativity by ruining the lines in the movie. They are also given full power over what does and doesn't get broadcast which seems almost unconstitutional. If censorship on television continues the way it does ratings could easily drop and movies could turn into somewhat of a joke depending on their original content. It could ruin the viewing pleasure for the audience and lead to less views which would in turn affect the television station as well as everyone who put in work on the movie as well. The video below is just one example of the countless terrible edits.
