The decision to pull the 'Arthur' episode this month was not the first time Alabama Public Television has refused to air an episode of the same program over pro-LBGT themes.
Alabama Public Television refused to air an episode of a long-running PBS children’s program because it featured a same-sex marriage.
In a statement to the local news publication, Mckenzie justified the decision as one made to benefit parents whose children should be allowed to watch Arthur on APT without supervision. The decision was not the first time APT refused to air an episode of the popular children’s program over pro-LGBT themes. In 2005, the state network cut an episode which featured Buster — a bunny who’s Arthur’s best friend and also in Mr. Ratburn’s class — visiting a friend with two mothers co-parenting her.
The series centers around an eight-year-old anthropomorphic brown aardvark and his adventures as an adolescent in the fictional town of Elwood City.
