Are there any shows that got abruptly cancelled because the government didn't like something they said or did? (lemmy.world)

Not because of the acting or even the political beliefs of the actors, but because something that was said in front of the camera offended a government agent who got the show axed.

Not the Government but in Australia in the early 90's we had a one off special of Funniest home videos called Australia’s naughtiest home videos which was pulled off air mid show by the network owner Kerry Packer.
