Trivia / Gargoyles S 1 Deadly Force

• Pop-Culture Urban Legends: Some early internet fansites are known to have claimed that the episode was pulled after Moral Guardian outrage, typically from prominent members of either the pro-gun or anti-gun wings of American Gun Politics. This was not the case. In fact, the majority of both factions praised the episode for its brutally honest approach, as even pro-gun lobbies are understandably very vocal critics of the way gun safety tends to be portrayed in fiction. It's a very rare thing to find something these two camps will agree on. This also extends to the show's uploading to Disney+; as of October 2021, it is fully available, and while it was originally uneditted, it has since been Bowdlerised to downplay the aftermath of Elisa's shooting, particularly the blood.
