Material that won't fly past censors on TV and is too blatant to sneak past the censors, so it's included on video releases, often in the DVD Bonus Content. It can be used as marketing ploy to sell more DVDs.
Many ecchi anime that use censor steam will remove it for the DVD release. This also applies to violent anime with censor shadows.
So named because in 1990s, there were TV shows that sold VHS releases called "Show X: Too Hot for TV!". In reality, the "too hot" was often restricted to a few extra swear words.
A Sub-Trope of Deleted Scene. Compare Unrated Edition, Think of the Censors!, Explicit Content, Too Sexy for This Timeslot.
A thorough list of such censorship can be found here on this website.

Law & Order: Special Victims Unit. Downplayed In-Universe. At the start of "Assaulting Reality" (about a rape accusation on the set of Heart's Desire, a Take That! to The Bachelor and Reality Shows in general), the producers show sex footage from The Dream Suite. In reality, this would lead to the producers and the network getting penalized by the Federal Communications Commission for showing an actual sex act, which could fall under "Indecent Content" or even "Obscene Content."

The US network Syfy often airs family-friendlier versions of original series such as Bitten and The Magicians. For sex scenes and other racy content, you need to either view the shows outside the US or buy the "unedited" DVD releases later. Although "Too Hot for TV" isn't invoked directly, the 2016 DVD release of The Magicians, for example, does promote the fact that the episodes are uncensored.

The It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia Christmas Special, "A Very Sunny Christmas", was originally released on DVD format, and contained uncensored use of "fuck", nudity, and a scene of explicit, bloody violence, most of which was toned down or censored for the TV broadcast on FX. The show was eventually able to build up the clout to get away with such things without censorship, to the point where a Season 12 episode had Charlie saying "nigger" and "cunt" uncensored.

The Simpsons had a VHS released in the UK under this title, including episodes claimed too violent or racy to show in the UK.note In reality, two of the episodes - "Grampa vs. Sexual Inadequacy" and "Treehouse of Horror IX" - aired in the UK just fine, and "Natural Born Kissers" was delayed by only a few months. The only truly 'controversial' episode on the set was "The Cartridge Family", which had yet to air in the UK at the time (and would not do so for several years until after the video came out) as it was banned by Sky One. When the BBC got the rights they had no qualms about showing it uncut, and Sky followed suit when the episode returned to them.

Of course, Basic Instinct is already too "hot" to be shown on anything but premium channels, but director Paul Verhoeven cut about 45 seconds of the most explicit sex scenes out of the original to avoid an NC-17 rating. An uncut version was later made available in a DVD release.

Interspecies Reviewers' anime adaptation is much Hotter and Sexier than the original manga — while the manga would simply cut to a large page detailing each review and its associated score instead of actually showing any sex, the anime isn't bound by such restrictions, and can animate sex scenes while having each reviewer narrate their analysis. While the anime does not go into outright hardcore pornography territory, it certainly does skirt on the edge of the line at times and definitely has a lot of content that unambiguously qualifies as softcore material. The censored broadcast of episode 3 omitted several scenes and gave the viewer a black screen with the audio intact. This went to the point that Funimation eventually dropped the series in late January 2020, with Amazon following suit in early February (making it so the only way to watch the series in the US was via piracy), and the TV channel Tokyo MX even pulled the show from its broadcast about a week later. Not too long after, Sun TV also pulled the series from broadcast. Even AT-X, a station normally (in)famous for its laxness regarding nudity and other "edgy" content, would up censoring part of a scene in Episode 7 (for context, it was Meidri's egg-laying scene; apparently the showing of birdmaid cloaca crosses a line for what can be shown in a broadcast). The series was eventually given a North American Blu-ray release by Critical Mass Video, the hentai division of Right Stuf.

Is the motive why Minerva Mink, an anthropomorphic sexy mink, has little screentime in Animaniacs. Censors found her cartoons too hot and scrapped them, but kept the character. She does make cameos sometimes, including the movie Wakko's Wish and gets a much larger presence in the comics.

Total Drama used to do this on Netflix, showing all of the things Cartoon Network put on the chopping block when it was exported to the United States. Eventually, when they replaced the SD prints with HD ones, this trope was averted and Netflix started using the Bowdlerized American versions instead of the uncensored Canadian ones.

Unlike every other series in Weekly Shonen Jump proper, Ayakashi Triangle is entirely website-exclusive because of its high sexual content. Notably, Viz tended to entirely pass on licensing Shonen Jump's more sex-heavy titles (like To Love Ru or Yuuna and the Haunted Hot Springs), and may have only licensed Ayakashi Triangle because of getting every new Shonen Jump manga since 2019 as a package deal. Even then, two chapters (74 and 75) were skipped entirely, even on Manga Plus, for a suggestive scene involving a particularly-young character. Once the series moved to Jump+ and the license for the collected volumes was transferred to Seven Seas Entertainment, Viz entirely stopped simulpublishing new chapters, making them exclusive to Manga Plus.

Fly Me to the Moon also has extra chapters which have a bit more risque content. While nothing too explicit is shown, it's definitely more than what the cutesy main story would have you expect.
This is also the case for the first season's OVA, which shows that Nasa and Tsukasa aren't such a chaste innocent couple when they share several steamy kisses with each other, with the last one being a particularly sensual Spit-Trail Kiss.
The second OVA is pretty spicy as well, with the main plot centering on Charlotte and Aya pushing Tsukasa to try on a French Maid Outfit and later Sailor Fuku to try to turn Nasa on (it works). This culminates in a scene where he sensually removes her long stockings and even kisses one of her legs while she's wearing the sailor uniform. A Fade to Black follows...

Street Fighter V of all games faced this problem. During the middle of the EVO 2016 finals, ESPN (who was broadcasting the game) realized that the character R. Mika (a flashy puroresu-style wrestler in a very flashy and stripperiffic costume) was too steamy for primetime, and during the middle of the match, the player using her was asked to change to her alternate "Story Mode" skin (which, amusingly enough, while covering up more of her butt and cleavage, still reveals a lot of underboob and ultimately has the same amount of net coverage). This also didn't stop her from her visibly slapping her ass during her Critical Art, an element which was later edited entirely out of the game by Capcom.

The Mock the Week DVDs are named Too Hot for TV and are largely material which The BBC considered inappropriate for TV. There are now three such DVDs, each running for about three hours.

Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei: Most gag censors stayed. However, there are a few that flat out say "Censored for broadcast" that were removed in the DVDs.

Averted with Yosuga no Sora: Compared to most post-midnight anime. Whereas most networks still shy themselves from showing uncensored nipples after midnight, Yosuga no Sora dares to go the whole nine yards and show full sex scenes on network TV, akin to HBO's Rome and The Sopranos. Examples, while not extremely explicit, include Motoka shown masturbating (and implicitly on a frequent basis) and the show has no qualms showing nipples in full detail. Then Episode 4 (Kazuha 4) literally gives the starting act of a sex scene, and Episode 6 (Akira 4) goes all out showing Akira in all sorts of surprising sex positions. Also, the anime as compared to the visual novel, somehow managing the exact opposite of most visual novel-based anime.

The broadcast version of Maken-ki! was so borderline, that many of its scenes made liberal use of Lens Flare and Censor Steam to make it suitable for television. While other scenes were edited to include conveniently placed foreground objects to cover the girls' naughty bits. The Blu-ray/DVD release is uncensored and includes a set of mini-specials that're exclusive to the boxset.

Outlaw Star had "Hot Springs Planet Tenrei" episode that never aired on Cartoon Network or [adult swim] due to its use of Fanservice. It wouldn't be until its airing on the revived Toonami block that the episode would finally air on US airwaves, with the breasts Nipple and Dimed in order to pass for airing. Made worst is unlike other Hot Spring Episodes, there is a significant plot point in this episode that may lead to confusion in following episodes.

Haganai's second season is a unique example which not only was too hot for TV but international DVD release; a shot of a girl who looks like Kobato in a graphic eroge scene was censored on all DVD/Blu-ray and streaming releases outside of Japan, and on Japanese TV.

Mort Walker (creator of Beetle Bailey) is one of the few cartoonists to have been ahead of fans in regards to Rule 34 versions of his own work. He once drew Ms. Buxley nude and released the drawing as a limited edition series of art prints. Walker and his staff also make several dirty gag strips that never make it past the sketch level. Mostly, they do this for their own amusement, but some of the strips have been published in Scandinavian magazines, and were later collected into a complete album. With Walker's blessings, of course.

High School D×D had an interesting case with the anime's second season. While it is normal for the normal broadcast version of all its seasons to cover the girls with Censor Steam, Lens Flare Censor or stylized versions of its logo, second season Blu-ray versions also had the camera shift to actually view some of the action in more sexualized ways and including scenes that were left out possibly due to time constraits.

South Park's later DVD and Blu-ray sets, beginning with season 11, remove most of the bleeps. This extends to the remasters of the seasons done prior. That said, there are cases where the dialogue is still bleeped for various reasons:
Season 1 (except for "Mecha Streisand") and part of Season 2 were still censored, with a message that shows up on the Blu-Ray releases of said seasons explaining that this is due to the uncensored audio tracks being lost.
The dialogue in scenes where the voice acting is done by actual children (primarily Ike) is left bleeped, but that's because the dialogue in question is actually clean and was bleeped to sound worse than it was.
A scene in "It Hits the Fan" that's based around characters knowing when the word "fag" is being bleeped is naturally left as-is.
All mentions of Muhammad (and Kyle's speech at the end) in "200" and "201" are still left bleeped due to terrorist threats from the terorist group "Revolution Muslim" over his depiction.

Actually somewhat predates the rise of streaming and premium cable as the early-2000s series. Las Vegas also released racier versions of its episodes to DVD, though by today's standards those episodes could probably air as-is even on network TV. At the time, though, the DVDs were promoted as being too hot for TV.

Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt is an interesting case because none of the English dub was allowed on American/British TV at all due to being so extreme. Funimation pitched an edited dub of the show to [adult swim] and encouraged fan campaigns to the network, but it was ultimately rejected. It is on DVD, but has a logo saying it's a TV-MA in America and a standard 18+ logo in Britain.

Family Guy has lots of swear words and alternate scenes that were too offensive to air on American network TV put on DVD, often in the episode proper.
The episode "When You Wish Upon a Weinstein" was considered this by Fox execs, but not [adult swim]. (The AS version of the episode changed one of Peter's lines in a song.)
"Partial Terms of Endearment" was considered too controversial to air on American TV at all.

Crazy Ex-Girlfriend has some songs made with two different versions: One with explicit lyrics that include swearing and raunchier jokes, and a version made for the show's broadcast that's toned down. The explicit versions can be found on Rachel Bloom's YouTube channel, some of the streaming versions, and the official soundtrack releases.

Drawn Together also. There are also a large number of deleted or extended sequences included with all three seasons. Also, the show was allowed to be shown on Comedy Central's late-night block The Stash but a scene from "The One Wherein There is a Big Twist" depicting Spanky masturbating off the side of a wrestling cage was covered by a Censor Box reading "DVD Only - Too hot for the Stash!".

I Don’t Like You at All, Big Brother!!: In the same situation as Rosario + Vampire censors are completely arbitrary.
The DVD release seems to show most of the arbitrary ones were actually hiding cameltoe. Still doesn't justify censoring feet...
And the manga as well was uncensored in its tankobon release.
