[–] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 85 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (3 children) Why the fuck would they remove Big Gay Al's Big Gay Boat Ride? Also, cancelling Cancelled is peak irony. permalink fedilink source hideshow 6 child comments replies: [+] RowRowRowYourBot@sh.itjust.works 36 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent [–] Horsey@lemmy.world 23 points 1 year ago This is legitimately one of my favorite television episodes ever. Like, across all shows. It’s perfect in every way and such an amazing time capsule from the 90s. permalink fedilink source parent [–] andros_rex@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 child) Kinda amazing that they would pull Big Gay Al, when that episode was lauded for presenting a gay guy as basically a normal, reasonable guy. One of the healthiest adults on the show. But they don’t pull the “being trans is like wanting to be black to be better at basketball, or turning yourself into a dolphin”? There’s something so fucked about the removal of that particular episode. South Park can be straight up homophobic at points, why would you take down one of the more positive episodes? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 child) It's even blocked on southpark.cc.com! WTF permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] andros_rex@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago That makes zero sense. Like that episode won a GLAAD award. Why would you remove something that was pretty historic in portraying gay people as normal and healthy? I can’t really think of anything wrong with that episode, even by non South Park standards. This is really gross. permalink fedilink source parent
