Maddox's TV Tropes Sorter/Bowlderise/Western Animation/By Date

## Oldest to Newest

### 1941

1. The planned ending of the Looney Tunes cartoon *The Heckling Hare*. Most people attribute the cut to one of three things: an inappropriate line , concern over Bugs and Willoughby possibly being killed off, or for being an Overly-Long Gag (Tex Avery originally planned *three* fall sequences). As a result, the cartoon was cut short after Bugs' line "Fooled ya, didn't we?", but a little bit of Willoughby's line afterward is left in during the Fade to Black. This scene is currently deemed lost (though the transcript survived).

### 1977

1. An independent station in Atlanta that was owned by Pat Robertson's CBN organization acquired the *Fun World of Hanna-Barbera* and *Fred Flintstone & Friends* syndication packages in 1977. Because of the organization's ground rules on what they deem unacceptable (no supernatural stuff, hypnotism, etc.), *The Funky Phantom* was left out of the *Fun World* run and *Jeannie* and *Goober and the Ghost Chasers* were left out of the *Flintstone* package. Also as a result, two episodes of shows they did run were excised because of hypnotism scenes. Other shows were simply cut to accommodate a local host segment during the cartoons.

### 1992

1. *The Adventures of Blinky Bill* (plus the movie) wrecks the books' style and makes it a show about a happy-go-lucky young koala and his friends. Meanwhile, the 2015 movie and *The Wild Adventures of Blinky Bill* are more faithful to the original books.

### 1998

1. *South Park*
	* A dub by Audiomaster 3000 began broadcasting in Mexico back in 1998, though it was incredibly softened and censored in dialogue, with Mexican slang replacing profanity by order of the local network that aired it. Dubbing was halted after the second season. This dub is now considered lost, other than episodes of season 2 that MTV Latinoamerica had rerun from it later on.

### 2003

1. The re-release of *Knick Knack* made Sunny Miami and Sunny Atlantis' breasts significantly smaller, and their bras less revealing.
	* This was actually not from international releases or Executive Meddling, but the idea of the original creator John Lasseter.

### 2009

1. *Pororo the Little Penguin*: When the show was brought To ABC In Australia in 2009, the episode "Petty You Are So Cool" was banned due to a spider scene, and in "Loopy Has a New Friend," the word "coward" is muted, leaving it "You're a..."

### 2011

1. Following the Norway attacks, Channel 4's broadcast of the *Futurama* episode "The Cryonic Woman" have the part where Bender scans a severed arm with a career chip on it edited so that way the severed arm comes from a "chainsaw juggler" rather than the "Prime Minister of Norway." The Netflix streaming version in America once had the original "Prime Minister of Norway" scene, but after they added the rest of the episodes that concluded the series (from "2-D Blacktop" to "Meanwhile"), the new version where the arm's chip reads "Chainsaw Juggler" is used instead. The only way one can see the original "Prime Minister of Norway" part is on the original DVD release (not the rerelease).

### 2016

1. The Powerpuff Girls reboot
	* Ms. Bellum was Put on the Bus for "not fitting the message" of the series. Most fans took this as her being too much of a Ms. Fanservice for the reboot and the alleged Moral Guardians currently running the network, even though her personality was just the smarter Straight Man to the Mayor in the original series.
	* The violence is toned down. It's less graphic than in the original series and Word of God states that they want less fighting and more characterization.

### 2020

1. The *Bluey* episodes 'Teasing' and 'Flat Pack' contained the phrase "ooga booga" when they originally aired. After viewers sent complaints about the phrase's racist connotations, all subsequent and international airings have replaced them with more acceptable phrases .
2. *Miraculous Ladybug*: When Disney Channel U.S. aired Animaestro in May 2020, Thomas's allergic face was edited and the scene of him eating the macaron was cut.
