Controversial TV Episodes of Popular Shows That Have Been Totally Banned

"iRue The Day" - iCarly

This "controversy" was a bit much and mostly seemed like an overreaction from the network heads at Nickelodeon. "iRue the Day" involved a character, Nevel, who blackmails Carly and her friends after hacking into her website.

The episode was quickly put back into syndication.
