- There are two theories, both of which were posted at some point on the other
- newsgroup:
- * That "liquor" sounded too much like "Lick her" to the censors
- at NICK, and
-
- * That John K. owns the copyright to the name "George Liquor", and
- it's a character he wants to use in some of his future work.
- NICK would've had to pay him to use it, since it aired after they
- fired him.
