"We're fishing today with John Doe at the Phantom Beach for striped bass sometime during the fishing season at no tide in particular."
"John, what can you not tell us?"
It's unrealistic to expect a for profit fishing show not relay the basics related to the show's subject matter. The viewership and advertisers expect certain things.
Now, a not-for-profit web or public access show - different story. You want the host to swear, let him. You want to tell the viewers they can watch, but we're not going spoon feed you spots, you can. You want to engage in irreverant zaniness - go for it. What you've got in the end could be something really creative or useless - depending on who did it.
