What were some shows that had episodes that were banned from airing for whatever reason?

I'll start with an easy one: Electric Soldier Porygon from Pokemon.

There's the episode of Pokemon with the Jamesboobs as well. And the Tentacruel episode that aired once and then got pulled from reruns because of 9/11.

BUT FOOTAGE FROM THAT EPISODE WAS STILL IN THE OPENING SONG. I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST MADE UP FOOTAGE FOR THE LONGEST TIME BECAUSE I NEVER SAW THAT EPISODE. I WAS LIKE "why is tentacruel in the opening he's like not even in the show"

I remember watching the Tentacruel episode when it aired, never noticed that they pulled it from reruns actually.

I never saw that Tentacruel episode but I want to now. I swear I saw the banned gun one but I read it never aired. Also I think the Christmas Jynx episode got banned because of overly sensitive idiots finding problems where none exist, projecting their own issues. I also watched the Porygon one and I was afraid the whole time.

They had it as a comic in Nintendo Power too.

Which only made it all awkward.

I looked some up AND I REMEMBER WATCHING THIS EPISODE OF TINY TOONS

The gang literally gets wasted and it was meant to teach kids the dangers of getting drunk.

It was titled "One Beer."

I remember seeing the Tentacruel episode on tv, but I was never "up to speed" with Pokémon, so either I saw the initial airing, or they did re-run it at least once...

Either way, Indigo League is on Netflix, along with the Tentacruel episode.
