Shame really that our servicemen had to put up with whatever they could
watch in those days.  Heard a simular thing happened with "Joanie Loves
Chachi" being shown in Korea where someone misinterperate Chachi's name
as if it meant "penis" or something.


First of all, A) Chachi _does_ mean penis, and B) what you heard is an urban
legend gone awry.  "Joanie Loves Chachi" was aired in Korea, but only on a
small English only network for the US armed forces.  It didn't cause the
kind of hysteria that people think it did.
