For years, the edgy comedy of Married With Children pushed boundaries, but one episode got so terrible that it was yanked off the air entirely. Fans have been guessing about the renowned “lost” episode for decades, sharing tidbits and theories, and now they may finally see it after years in the vault.
The 1989 episode “I’ll See You in Court” was quickly canceled due to its explicit narrative. The plot centered on Al and Peg Bundy becoming embroiled in a scandal at a dubious hotel, and there featured a number of gags that were deemed “too hot for TV” at the time. Because network censors thought the show went too far, it was never properly rebroadcast in the United States.
Known to some as the “banned Bundy episode,” the episode became legendary among die-hard fans. The bootleg versions that circulated for years added to the mystery. However, because of relaxed laws and streaming sites that are eager for vintage content, I’ll See You in Court is now making a comeback to audiences in its uncut version.
Social media is alive with excitement as fans prepare to see the Bundys at their most outrageous. Some see it as a historical capsule of 1980s humor, while others think it shows how far ahead of its time the show was. Without a certain, this “banned” episode will be one of the most talked-about TV comebacks ever.
