The Beginnings

The George Carlin skit "Seven Words You Can Never Say On Television" was extremely controversial back in 1972. In fact, Carlin was later arrested, and the incident led to a Supreme Court ruling that changed how speech and profanity were regulated on television. It's this skit that broke the mold for profanity for years to come.
