* BannedEpisode: After the documentary ''Surviving R. Kelly'' came out in 2019, [adult swim] started skipping the episode during their regular rotation. Ironically, this happened when Huey's TheReasonYouSuckSpeech towards R. Kelly and everyone dancing in court after Music/RKelly is found innocent went viral online. As of 2020, it has returned to rotation and HBO Max has the episode uncut and uncensored.

* DeletedScene: Rosa Parks was meant to make an appearance in the episode, [[ItMakesSenseInContext having a chicken leg hurled at her]] by the fat female R. Kelly defender. It was cut from the episode [[HarsherInHindsight since Rosa Parks actually passed away before it aired]]. However, you can actually see Sister Rosa walking peacefully in the background during the ending, then being hugged by the woman who slugged her.
