Dragon Ball has a scene in one of the earlier episodes where Goku gets desperate and confused when he finds out Bulma doesn’t have balls. In Brazil, the panty removing scene was cut, but him screaming and waking up Bulma was kept, with the chatter being fully nonsensical “I was hungry and looking for food!”

I also remember seeing that a country, I think Thailand?, censors even male pectorals, so a lot of DBZ fights had big blurs over the characters.

I’m old, and I saw the Breakfast Club back in the 80’s on like, channel 11. For years I couldn’t figure out why Principal Vernon and Carl the Janitor went from hating each other to being friends.

Years later I saw it unedited and realized they cut out the whole scene with the two of them bonding and smoking weed. So much made sense at that point.

The Invincible TV series is quite gory. Blood gets censored to be white in China which makes for some interesting scenes of hands dripping with white stuff. Or this:

Die Hard 2.

Original line: “Yippee ki-yay, mother fucker.”

Censorship line: “Yippee ki-yay, Mr. Falcon.”

There is no one named Mr. Falcon in the movie.

It’s a movie, but when Sigourney Weaver’s character says “Well, fuck that.” and it’s edited to say “Well, screw that.” without changing how her mouth moves at all is about the funniest one I can think of.

(Galaxy Quest is the movie)

South Park Season 1 Episode 7 (the episode where Cartman wears a Adolf Hitler costume for Halloween) was partially censored in Germany. Cartmans “Sieg Heil” was changed to “Wie Geil” (means “how cool”). I think the censoring there was actually funnier than the original.

The version of From Dusk Till Dawn that aired on German TV with age 16+ rating was half an hour shorter and was cut so badly, it hardly even made sense anymore.
It’s basically just a couple of dude(tte)s going to a gas station, then walking into a bar and starting to shoot at nothing for no reason.

In France, advertising alcohool brands on TV is heavily restricted. It wasn’t a problem in the Simpsons since Duff was not a real brand of beer.

When Duff became a real brand, French TV had to blur every Duff logo and beep out every “Duff” pronounced on screen. Some episodes became unwatchable, Duffman became beepman, every beer became blurry…

The most infamous would be South Park episodes S14E05 and S14E06 named “200” and “201”. The central theme of the episodes: Censorship. Something South Park had been subjected to ever since its inception. And this time, they centered around the limits of what is allowed around depictions of the Islamic Prophet Muhammad. For context: These episodes aired after controversies around such depictions in media around the world had people killed.

So in an attempt to protect themselves, the network engaged in censorship of the episodes and it is sometimes unclear, what was intentionally in there as a plot point from the creators and what was added by the network. Although some egregious examples are clear, such as the complete bleeping of Kyle’s “I’ve learned something today” monologue at the end. While Stone and Parker inserted clear plot points like characters like Moses of all people asking, whether something was OK to show or say. I’m still uncertain whether the huge censorship bar over the Prophet is a plot point, or censorship or both.

The kicker: Prophet Muhammad had been shown in earlier episodes already, without sparking controversy and in “200” and “201” they even reference those episodes. As expected, they received death threats after the airing of the episodes and later pulled all five episodes with Muhammad depictions from their streaming sites (Super-Best Friends, Cartoon Wars 1+2, 200, 201).

I read some years ago that in the Arabian version of Simpsons, Homer drinks lemonade instead of beer.

In the 1900s I worked at a physical media store. Someone complained about the Titanic playing overhead having boobies visible in it, and I was tasked with using a VHS splicer to remove the boobies.

The VH1 edit of showgirls. Movie was cut shorter… Meaning what actual plot there was was even more chopped up .

And when they couldn’t edit out the nudity, they “Ms painted” bikini tops on the actresses.

It’s absolutely hilarious to see https://www.reddit.com/r/Corridor/comments/1bs47qn/showgirls_movie_edited_for_tv_vh1_no_joke/

Here’s an example

There is a famous US tv edit of Snakes On A Plane where Samuel L Jackson shouts at a pivitol moment, “I’ve had it with these monkey eating snakes on this Monday to Friday plane!”

4kids animes replacing rice balls with donuts, sandwiches or cookies.

Attack on Titan, in the anime they decided that having a mother tattoo her kid was too much (in a show where giants casually eat people alive) so they made her do an embroidery with the same symbol instead.

During season 4 where the tattoo was relevant for the first time (and they included it in the show), it was fun watching anime-only watchers complain it was a total ass-pull with no prior setup.
