How is it X-rated though? Pretty sure I saw it on cable, and it's puppets not live action

You saw the safe version, then. In the directors cut, the puppet sex scene is NASTY. Like, scatological nasty. I saw an interview Trey and Matt did while promoting Team America and they said the sex scene was the whole reason the made the movie in the first place; they wanted it to be horrific for the censors to watch.
