Since October I’ve noticed that these episodes have been slowly picked off Paramount+ in Canada - in my province at least.

Given the current political climate I can at least think of a reason why they would ban the last 3 to theoretically avoid controversy (then again if they’re banning specific episodes due to antisemitic themes you would think The Passion of the Jew would be the first to go, but those are still up lol), but I’m sort of puzzled as to why the first 4 have been taken off? I don’t remember anything in these episodes that would warrant them being removed over any other episode. There are plenty of worse ones out there, why do you think they removed those?

    The only reason I could even think they would remove Two Days Before the Day After Tomorrow is for one line where Randy, Gerald, and Stuart are walking through the town in their expedition gear and they think they have hypothermia because of how hot they are - Gerald suggests taking their clothes off to fight the hypothermia by cuddling naked together and Randy replies - “don’t be a f*g”.

    cant think of a single thing otherwise that would get it possibly removed

      That word features prominently in the biker episode, and in Imaginationland, Butters’ radioname is “f***ot”. It’s probably something as petty as making fun of climate change politics.

      That’s the best line in the episode, and one of my top favorite episodes. Didn’t realize the word fag has to be censored nowadays. But why Cancelled and You got F’d in the A?

      The Jew gold thing maybe? A lot of these pulled episodes have anti-semitic stereotypes in them. Then again theres still MANY more in episodes not pulled.
