10 Banned TV Shows That Shocked The World
2. Promoting Promiscuity & Being Blatantly Racist - All My Babies' Mamas
Proving that even the tawdry reality TV sausage factory has some vague standard of decency sometimes, this show starring rapper Shawty Lo and the 10 different mothers of his 11 children was supposed to air in 2013, following the ins-and-outs of their, ahem, unconventional family dynamic.
After public outcry over the show's perceived glorification of promiscuity and dangerous reinforcement of racial stereotypes, however, network Oxygen cancelled it.
Given that a petition calling for its cancellation received almost 40,000 signatures, it's little surprise Oxygen cowed to the pressure, especially as they're a subsidiary of the all-powerful entity that is NBCUniversal.
And with that, the world was deprived of yet another soul-sappingly inane, wildly offensive slice of "reality." Oh no. Don't go.
