"No Tits, No Glory" - NBC & Telemundo

"Controversial" and "provocatively titled" is how NBC and Telemundo recently described their latest overseas program acquisition, "Sin tetas no hay paraiso". But the press release does not let on just how controversial and provocative.

"No Tits, No Glory" is the most accurate rendition of the Colombian television show's title into English. It encapsulates the literal and figurative meaning. Tetas means tits. No way around it. NBCU opted instead for the awkward, sanitized and inaccurate translation of "Without Breasts There Is No Paradise".

You can see why.  I am sure TV Guide wouldn't list "No Tits, No Glory" on its program schedule. The FCC would be up in arms. And even the anodyne translation prompted a flurry of frat-boy headlines such as the OC Register's "NBC puts 'Breast' Foot Forward", Variety's "'Breasts' Could Be 'Paradise'" and New York Magazine's "Without Breasts There Is No Television". Jossip, though, had the best and most accurate headline "NBC's Ben Silverman's First Buy: Tits".

Turn here for the creepy opening sequence of "No Tits, No Glory", which was produced by Caracol in Colombia.
