Same here.
Even if MJ is a pedophile, there are still more offensive episodes of the simpsons. Such as the pufferfish one.
The episode where Homer is at the mental institute is so funny but what made me lose it is when he calls home to try and say he’s coming back, only for Bart to answer and Homer to lose his shit and start threatening him…
pure laughter
there was a john jay episode though
Never forget that after he died they finally admitted to finding his secret CP room.

Wait, it this a legit debate? This episode actually happened…
It’s the first Simpsons episode I remember seeing
Community advanced DND episode was peak!!!
That episode getting removed from Netflix over some virtue signaling bs was one of the reasons I wrote off streaming and started hoarding content.
What, did they stop running the episode?
Yes, in 2019
Why?
All that disinfo about Micheal Jackson being a pedophile
In March 2019, following the release of the documentary film Leaving Neverland, which details allegations against Jackson of child sexual assault, “Stark Raving Dad” was pulled from circulation. Jackson was previously tried and acquitted of child sexual abuse charges in 2005 and denied any wrongdoing.
Hmmm that’s old news why pull the episode now? I mean whatever I don’t really care it’s just weird.
They pulled it years ago, this meme is just referencing it
The episode was pulled AGES after the allegations, though.
Fwiw, that song has been in my head ever since I saw this thread. Thanks everyone, I hate my life right now. 😉
Lisa it’s your birthday, happy birthday Lisa!
Easy fix
Baaaaaay Beeeeeee Shark-dadundadadada
Baby Shark-dadundadadada…
You monster.
If the episode didn’t happen, why do I have the song stuck in my head Bart?
Leon’s even got his own questline in Tapped Out. Weird the episode’s banned, but he’s still A OK in alt media.
It’s literally one of the best episodes of that season (although many of s3 were great!). I get why but wtf. Glad I have a copy 🏴☠️
My newest and favorite argument in favor of piracy. Disney doesn’t get to throw my hard drive in the memory hole
A shame, that episode was one of the better ones. What next, Sonic 3 being unavailable because MJ supposedly helped with the music?
No, they just wrote new tracks for the most recent re-release, Sonic Origins. Not because Jackson is controversial or anything, but because there was some kind of copyright issue.
Personally I never liked Carnival Night Zone, but the rest of the tracks were a downgrade.
Just to add cause I think it’s neat, the tracks aren’t actually new, but were used in the old PC version and even in the original beta. They’re still new to most people, but I think it’s interesting that these were technically the originals.
I agree though, they’re not as good.
I bet it’s probably more the race bits in the episode than MJ himself.
“the big white guy who thinks he’s the little black guy who thinks he’s the white guy” line
i just ripped that season from my dvd collection. i should seed it. 🫣
Here… You dropped this: 👑
One of the most well-known episodes. Who is saying this didn’t happen?
Nobody is actually claiming it doesn’t exist. It just isn’t available for streaming because everyone involved doesn’t want to stream it.
