Teletubbies

Tinky Winky Controversy
In 1999, a controversy was made on the character Tinky Winky, as he was believed to be a gay (homosexual) role model for kids, due to the fact that he carried a feminine-looking handbag, and the fact that he was purple (the Gay Pride colour), with his antenna being shaped like a triangle (the Gay Pride symbol).

Ken Viselman of Itsy-Bitsy Entertainment (the company that licensed the show to the US) responded, saying "he is not gay, he is not straight, he is just a character in a children's series."

The Lion and the Bear Controversy
In April 1997, an episode called See-Saw had a sketch featuring a cutout bear and a cutout lion chasing each other. The sketch was panned for its disturbing imagery and upsetting music and voice work. Thus, any episode containing the sequence was pulled from airing internationally.

In 2000, however, an edited version of the sketch was made with toned down voice acting and music, along with several shots being struck off.

Can you add the Spongebob Squarepants spinoffs (Kamp Koral: SpongeBob's Under Years and The Patrick Star Show) to this wiki?

So, like, Marco Grouch literally sources IMDB for reception so one show can go on a wiki, example: if the Teletubbies reboot has 4.7/10 and the original show has 3.5/10, that means the reboot is better. Bruh!

I still feel like "Brum" and "Rosie & Jim" should have gotten the popularity that Teletubbies had instead.
