Some time back in the run, when Adrianna was shot in the woods for talking to the Feds, her killer called her 'A cunt'. Can anyone recall another instance of the word being used in a TV show, albeit one made by such an out front company as HBO?

Deadwood?
That seems to have a very extensive vocabulary.

The word Cunt has been used many times in the Sopranos.

The c-word also a favourite of Mr Tourette the Master Signwriter, the best and funniest on CH4's recent Modern Toss.

No it was the other regular guy in the crew, not Steve Van Zandt.

HBO is cable & not subject to FCC regs as they would be if they were a broadcast network.

Damn good show! A kind of Good Fellas TV series if I may be so bold to invite the comparison.
I knew Adrianne was going to get hers from the moment she talked. Tony was right. Never give up your family..right or wrong thats what The Sopranos is about and she violated the code.
Some italian folk do take offence to some of this stuff too which I can understand...One of the best things on TV too. Deadwood is good too. HBO are the topp producers of tv shows in my opinion. Loved band Of Brothers too...and Rome. I'm sure cunt was used in that too.
