The show "The Duck Factory" had an episode that aired once, and was interrupted by a news bullitan,and when it was on FX, they banned the episode, because it was too graphic I guess for viewers.

Married With Children has at least one banned episode because the Fox Network apparently figured that the subject matter was too sensitive. The episode is often refered to by fans as "The Lost Show."

There is one episode of Star Trek- (the original series) that has never been shown in Germany, because the Nazis were the subject matter.

Ellen- Many affilates across the country refues to air the infamous coming out episode and subsquent episodes after that which is one thing that lead to the shows cancelation.

Yeah, I was gonna say 'Ellen'. The 'coming-out' episode was shown on mainstream TV over here - but only after 10pm. The following series was relegated to the 3am slot! There is one satalite channel that aired the 'Puppy Episode' at 11 IN THE MORNING!!! http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/smile.gif I was quite pleased about that. Censorship is stupid where sitcoms are concerned.
'Ellen' was a brillaint show and it sucks that it got scrapped!

the Seinfeld episode 'The Puerto Rican Day' has been banned from syndication - it aired only one time on NBC and there were protests because of people burning the Puerto Rican flag.

That episode was called "I'll See You in Court," and it was banned due to pressure from Terry Rakolta's anti-media group "Viewers for Quality Television. Would you care for the plot summary?
