This Arthur Episode was BANNED!  

What’s your favorite episode of Arthur?

They objected the episode cause the guy didn't marry his sister

I remember a bunch of memes about a "gay rat wedding."

I figured out Mr Ratburn was gay at like 10 lol. I'm telling you, Ratburn coming out as gay was a suprise to no millennial lol.

Y'all we all know Mr. Ratburn wants Arthur's dad, it was banned because he needs to be with Arthur's dad instead 🤭

Not to mention they're two different species

Of course it was Alabama lmao

If the reveal was that she is his sister and they’re still getting married, bet they wouldn’t object.

I wouldn't expect nothing less from a state where people go to their family reunion to find a hook-up

Anyone else noticed that Ratburn's husband, Patrick, looks suspiciously like Mr. Reed (Arthur's dad)? 🤔 Did Ratburn had a long secret crush on Mr. Reed but was bummed by the fact that the latter is still happily married & doesn't swing that way, so he settled for a look-alike to repair his broken heart & desires? *The only differences are that Mr. Reed is an aardvark, like Patrick is possibly a camel.

I almost ignored this because I thought it was an old recommended video 😂

I don’t see the big deal. It’s just 2 people getting married. If it was a straight couple, no one would bat an eye.

So same sex marriage is a no no, but marrying your first cousin is fine? Never change Alabama, never change…..

Didn’t an episode of Postcards from Buster get banned for a similar reason?

Arthur’s “The Great MacGrady”. By the way, you should do a short of why it got banned, and I already know it: it’s because of Lance Armstrong.

He's Back!

I've seen this on PBS Kids a lot of times before, and I kinda find it wholesome

And then the husband faded into the background

As a guy from Alabama I kinda get why the episode was banned but also this isn't the 19th century and it shouldn't have been banned they could've just not aired it on TV and made it for online only

Of course it was banned for that 😒 I swear the world is so close minded

Not a "Sweet home Alabama" moment

You’ve got the wrong episode this one should be praised for showing the value of accepting other people no matter what if any episode should be banned it should be Arthur’s big hit and DW and the beastly birthday because that had a needlessly terrible ending that made me cry so much

If it was his cousin though it’d be totally fine. 💀🗿

Breach of trust? But no one minds depicting str8 marriage? ... umm hypocrisy anyone?

This episode is on RU-vid lol. I watched it the other day

I was in the process of signing up for $10,000 worth of training at an AL electronics manufacturer. It's a week long course in the middle of nowhere, and being out in the woods away from society was actually not a drawback.. but when this happened that was what crossed the line. I chose a location in CO instead. It cost a lot more, but I'm not enabling crazy people with my employer's tax dollars, especially when I'm the one who has to be out there in the trenches with the tyrants. Around the same time, a couple from IL or MI had their kid taken away because the cops found a little weed in their car, and one of those awful abortion cases was in the headlines too. That state is a conservative mess right now, and I don't feel safe there even as a cis white male.

I think the better episode for this topic is "bleep"

Don’t know why people hate shows that show the same sex couples getting married 💀💀💀

I thought they already met ratburn’s sister in an earlier season

the fact i can watch this on my tv

I'm glad this got banned. I remember hearing about it.

I saw this episode on PBS kids before it got banned!

I still can’t believe they put that in a kids show. Mr Rayburn wasn’t gay the the whole time by the way. They added that in in 2020. Marc Brown didn’t write him that way.

This was banned? But I saw it on tv…

8:27 Ignorance of the law is no excuse unless you have David and Jane Read as parents

A show like this requires a suspension of disbelief. ANIMALS DRIVE CARS AND HAVE OTHER ANINALS AS PETS IN THIS UNIVERSE! Who watches this up until the gay rat wedding and then goes, "Ope! I'm done..." Why would this upset anyone? I can't...

It would be some mf in Alabama lol

Man I saw this coming a mile away even when I was 13 they were a lot of hints that mr ratburn was gay but yeah I don't see the big deal about the episode 😅

I actually watch this last year

17:30 is going to be the new said mom, said mom

Why did Alabama refuse to air it

Wait a minute how is it banned I keep seeing that episode all the time

This is actualy confirmed false. At least the marrying his sister part. The article was made to make fun of Alabama banning gay marrage but dont mind incest

Bro, it’s Arthur

STILL have not watched this episode and never will when this series started intimacy and romantic relationships were not of any concern to any of the characters nor the viewers going back to "Arthur and the real Mr Ratburn" Mr Ratburn was just a tough no nonsense teacher who taught the kids and had NO sexual inclinations he didn't care about such things and neither did the viewers of the show he cared about TEACHING his class that's it and this episode delves WAY OFF from that and if this is where the series was headed then it needed to end with things being brought onto the show that it was not originally based on and certainly certainly NOT the original books absolutely NOT the books that this show was made from THIS episode delves WAAAAYYYYYY off from the books. There was the old school 90's episodes of Arthur and then there are these new school episodes.

Damn.

And they say we’re the snowflakes lmao

Was this episode banned in many Muslim majority countries?

Hulk reference

There’s nothing wrong about this

If anything, the episode should have been banned for that horrid animation. Seriously, what happened? Time moves forward, and the show somehow looks worse

It wasn’t banned. I watched it on TV.

OFC its in Alabama ☠️

Mill Ratburn has two sisters?

So Arthur can have an entire episode dedicated to teaching kids about loved ones battling cancer, but gay marriage is just something they tack on at the end for brownie points? This show really went downhill when they went to Flash...

So Ratburn has two sisters?

So you can marry your cousin there abut not watch this episode Makes sense

wow.

I saw this on tv

This Was The Episode Of Arthur Where I Just Stopped Watching The New Episodes Because The Animation Got Incredibly Terrible And The Writing Is Completely Off, All The Voices Sound Weirder Than When The Series First Started, Idk What Happened To Pbs Kids But They Kinda Just Got Really Lazy With Their Show's , Also One Question... Why Are All The Kids Wanting To Object To Him Getting Married Like How They Know Marriage Works And Whenever They Find Out He's Getting Married To Another Guy And They're All Completely Cool With It And Just Are Like Okay Cool Even Though The Kids Have Almost No Idea What's Going On Right At That Moment Of The Show Seriously When Did They Learn About That? It's Just A Bit Surprising That They Already Knew? Right? 🤔🤔🤔

Just wish we had hints and not just make this outta nowhere

Good

That's horrible!

Can you say a a banded episode of wow wow wubbzy

Why didn’t they object?

I never knew if any of my teachers were married or had children and I think it should stay that way

The only time where Alabama has my respect.

Is it actually banned?

Well I don't blame them for getting this banned as this shouldn't be exposed to children on a kids show and yet people will come at me just for saying what's the right. I can't believe they even made mr ratburn like that

Fucking Alabama.

I don't think Alabama will be the only place that the episode would be going unerred in.

Good In happy it got banned leave kids out of your agenda

Na dudes it got banned cause of the shitty animation. What kind of dancing was that?!?!

++

Gay episode

Im tired of them trying to push this on kids

OK Patrick looks kind of ugly though honestly, I want to marry a fucking Twink or a slim guy than a, I don’t know what he is he an aardvark or is he a monkey? The only reason I didn’t like the episode was that I think Mr. Ratburn could’ve gotten better, but I don’t know I wasn’t a Ratburn simp.

Wasn’t he already married beforehand? Must’ve been a retcon to push the gay agenda cause I don’t really see a reason to suddenly make him like pp.

To bad it wasn’t banned everywhere else

Their gay in this episode, and PBS Kids don’t like gay in this channel and that why it removed!

Shouldnt be exposing kids to this kinds stuff..

Good. It's good they band it.

W For alabama 🗿

👋🦾🦶

My respect for Alabama 📈📈📈📈
