10 TV Show Episodes You Can No Longer Watch
These TV episodes have either been lost, buried, or binned off forever...
Never has it been easier to fire up your chosen model of monstrous screen and dive straight into whatever binge-worthy TV series is currently on your agenda, with Disney+, Netflix, Prime Video and many more constantly vying for your attention as more and more new and old school content is pumped into streaming services by the week.
Yet, despite this embarrassment of riches when it comes to the streaming world as a whole, there are still a few specific beats of television that actually cannot be stumbled upon during a late-night surf of the tabs.
In some cases these episodes simply found themselves on the receiving end of some justifiable backlash due to the handling of a sensitive subject matter or just the generally unnecessary material they chucked into the small screen landscape. But there have also been those sacred editions of TV shows that unfortunately fell through the cracks long ago and have still yet to have been officially unearthed as of writing.
From iconic last-ever performances to deeply uncomfortable sequences that are likely better left untouched, these are just a few of the TV moments that are no longer officially available to watch anymore.
10. Buffalo Gals - Cow & Chicken
Children's cartoons have a funny ol' habit of unleashing some rather jarring material into the world from time to time. And that was never more evident than during a Season 2 episode of Cartoon Network's Cow and Chicken by the name of Buffalo Gals.
Containing a great many insensitive jokes at the expense of lesbians throughout, the overall presentation of the titular cartoon ladies on show as dirty and excessively gross inevitably led to the show receiving a decent amount of backlash upon its initial airing in February 1998.
Sure enough, this would mark the first and last time the controversial episode would ever air on TV, with the Orthodontic Police entry replacing it in subsequent timeslots and on streaming services going forward.
When a show comes equipped with painfully unfunny visuals such as said Buffalo Girls eating carpets and enjoying their favourite past time of softball, it's probably for the best that it never sees the light of day ever again.
