Reply to comment by bolanrox in TIL part of a Teletubbies episode was actually banned in some countries for supposedly being too scary. by thedubiousstylus

There’s actually an entire episode that got banned in the 80s if I’m not mistaken. Look up Episode #847 of Sesame Street.

The Margaret Hamilton episode. It aired in 1976 when I was seven years old, and I remember watching it. I don't remember being particularly traumatized by it. I was mostly amazed that the sweet little old lady and the Wicked Witch of the West were the same person.

I guess a lot of kids were scared by that episode. I loved the Wicked Witch of the West and would have loved to see that episode but it was banned long before I was born (95) 😅
