TinyURL because the original is too long; hope that's okay. If you Google the topic title, you should also be able to find it from al.com

I remember those being a thing when I was a kid. Kinda weird to think they're getting new episodes even now.

I mean, not a bad thing at all. Just strange to think about.

I remember the most memorable thing about Cyber Chase was that robot parrot thing that sounds a lot like Gilbert Gottfried.

EDIT: Fact checked, holy shit it really was Gilbert Gottfried lol.

God, yes. Off and on throughout the years I would hear his voice and be like "oh hey that dude voiced that bird on Cyberchase."

I didn't think the south could become even more of a shithole. I was wrong. Bama might as well have voted Roy Moore in with the shit they're pulling

Same, to be honest. At least people who know I'm from here - online anyhow - know me well enough to know I'm not like the rednecks down here.

It's similar with a lot of other online friends I know from down here.

Yeah having watched the episode ... this. Jesus fucking Christ, it was referenced for only like 60 seconds of screen time. There was no discussion about it, nothing.

Such an idiotic thing for people to get upset over, even compared to the usual shit.

Agreed. I guess young kids don't mind too much, and the cost-savings probably allows them to keep making episodes. I can't complain too much about that.

50 years ago, Mississippi banned Sesame Street for having the nerve to show black and white people getting along with each other.

Seems some things never change unfortunately -_-

>"We also know that children who are younger than the target audience for Arthur also watch the program"

Implying that ARTHUR contains mature content that young children need to be protected from seeing/knowing about

Oh wait. That's for real what these people think of gay people.
