* {{Moral Guardian|s}} Jack Thompson got notoriously annoyed at the fact that a game pitched for a T-rating, ''VideoGame/{{Bully}}'', could have the option of [[GayOption making the protagonist bisexual]]. As in, he can smooch boys the same as he smooches girls, which is comparatively tamely. He attempted to claim that this constituted hardcore gay porn- in a children's game! Gasp! Never mind that most teenagers already know that yes, real life gay people exist, and it's mostly done for the benefit of the {{Yaoi Fangirl}}s playing it.[[note]]Not to mention that...y'know...the game is about bullies beating the shit out of other kids.[[/note]]

However, it's mostly for the word "sexy" being in the scene in GratuitousEnglish; we see ''all'' the other swimsuits she tried on, and even the scene where she is nearly walked in on while undressing (we see it from the inside; she stops when she hears a noise ''just'' before her shirt was about to show some {{underboob}}. This episode arguably had the highest "''how'' did that get [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar left in]]?" quotient of the franchise. (In fact, most serious contenders for that award are in that season.)

* ''OutlawStar'' was moved from the 8 p.m. time slot to midnight on Cartoon Network after the first episode because of a scene in which Gene Starwind and a woman he had met in a bar ran out of her room in their underwear after an alarm went off. (Note that ''Outlaw Star'' was never intended as a show for children, but evidently {{Toonami}} [[WhatDoYouMeanItsNotForKids thought]] [[AnimationAgeGhetto it was]].)
** Even in the later time slot it still got edited. The most egregious edit was not making Fred Lowe's CampGay nature (along with Gene and Jim's reactions) a blatant gag/plot point. It really explained why Fred ALWAYS loaned Gene money when asked.
** Episode 23 was too hot for the midnight time slot. Then again, it was ripe with fanservice and perversion.
