The Amanda Show -- Episode 38 [BANNED EPISODE]

3 months ago

Reason for Ban: post-9/11

“The Lucklesses” that aired on March 17, 2001, was the outlier. The premise of the episode features a family with the worst luck ever (literally).

It starts simply by losing a board game, then escalates quickly to getting robbed, then to the entire family getting struck by lightening. Unfortunately, this family’s awful luck doesn’t end there. At the end of the episode, their home gets hit by a powerful asteroid that ends up destroying their entire house.

Tragically, six months after the episode aired, the attacks of September 11th occurred in New York City. As reported by E! News, the network decided not to re-air “The Lucklesses” after the horrific attacks took place, determining that it was too “violent” for viewers.
