Was it just me or was this year’s telecast especially… racy? There were many a swear word and vulgar gesture thrown around. And I’m PRETTY sure that Miriam McDonald said, and I quote, “yeah, like, what the fuck?” in her award presenting bit. Have the rules for ‘f’ words in the 8pm hour suddenly become relaxed?
