Controversial TV Episodes of Popular Shows That Have Been Totally Banned

"Buffalo Gals" - Cow And Chicken

Cow and Chicken were definitely one of the grossest, most annoying shows out there. It was pretty gnarly, especially for a children's show. In the episode "Buffalo Gals," the creators of the show made fun of gay women by using commonly known (and harmful) stereotypes. The women rode motorcycles, played softball, looked "like dudes" and liked to chew on carpets. It was aired once in 1998 and never seen again. Rightfully so!
