“Promises, Promises” – Boy Meets World
Considering that one of the main plotlines of Boy Meets World is about Cory and Topanga’s relationship as they grow up throughout the years, it’s easy to assume that things might start getting hot and heavy as they got older.
Well, in the episode “Promises, Promises,” Cory and Topanga almost get intimate at prom, something that might be fine for any other network, but not the family-friendly show. So, it became one of the three episodes that were pulled from syndication.
“Dial M For Monkey: Barbequor” – Dexter’s Laboratory
Dexter’s Laboratory was one of the most popular shows on Cartoon Network in the 1990s but found itself in trouble during the segment called “Dial M for Monkey: Barbequor” that aired on May 19, 1996. In the episode, two superhero parodies named Silver Spooner and Barbequor make an appearance.
However, the show received complaints that the Silver Spooner was a stereotype. There were also complaints about the character Krunk’s supposed off-screen behavior. The segment was then removed on all formats of the show.
