I've seen TV censor the freaking FARTING 'ROUND THE CAMPFIRE scene, while keeping the slurs.
But also: All Mel Brooks' stuff would fit the question, imo. Not just Blazing Saddles.
If I'm honest, I could do without the farting around the campfire scene.
It is slightly funnier seeing them lift a leg to belch.
They eat beans and it gives them gas. It's not a constructed joke. It's like in Airplane 2: The Sequel where they take the Lunar Shuttle to 0.5 Worp speed and it does the trippy Star Trek visuals, and Elaine takes a drag from a joint and says "oh wow." Dya get it? She did drugs, now she's high. Didja get it?
Sure, but somebody else already mentioned Mel Brooks films in general. I wanted to highlight that one uniquely because of the factor I mentioned.
