Will ABC Family show Disney banned episodes

[chrisw79]

I was wondering if abc family will show the 3 episodes Disney wouldn't. I haven't seen them since it reran on my local station like 5 years ago. I thought they were good episodes that were realistic.

I don't see why they wouldn't. They're not editing the episodes for content on this channel, just editing for time mostly, and not even editing them that much.

Yeah that's the episode titled "PROMises, PROMises"

It's actually pretty funny, cause of all the rooms getting mixed up and Eric was freaking hilarious as usual

I don't understand why they ban episodes at all. BMW doesn't air until the early early am hours and all kids are asleep at that time anyways! They used to show old movies etc at these times for adults. It's awfully funny coming from a channel that aired Jaws at night a few years ago.

Disney says it's because of the sexual content of those episodes, that they aren't appropriate for the age group their network targets, and one of the episodes they banned "if you can't be with the one you love" they banned because of Shawn and Cory getting drunk, they felt that Cory and Shawn, didn't learn a lesson from their drinking, and that they didn't receive sufficient punishment either.

Funny they say that because they have showed an episode of Smart Guy where the little boy gets drunk

The thing Disney doesn't get is that BMW is not a children's show, that's why it never belonged on Disney, it's a perfect fit for ABC Family IMO

they aired the banned episodes on the family channel(in canada) which has all the same shows as the disney channel.

I guess I can see that. Shawn also got drunk in "Family Trees," but Disney airs that one.

Also I thought the sexual content in some eps that Disney does air (ex: "Wake Up Little Cory" and "Dangerous Secret") was a little worse than in the episodes that don't air.
