Controversial TV Episodes of Popular Shows That Have Been Totally Banned

"Earshot" - Buffy The Vampire Slayer

Buffy the Vampire Slayer was met with tricky waters when they aired "Earshot." The episode follows a student who planned to harm his classmates. The story ends up unearthing the fact that he meant to harm himself, but that still is a dangerous message to bring out into the world. The episode was scheduled to air just a week after the Columbine mass shooting in 1999. It was aired at a later date, but the air around dangerous acts in a school was already hot and viewers weren't happy with it.
