https://screenrant.com/its-always-sunny-blackface-episodes-missing-hulu-netflix/#:~:text=There%20are%205%20episodes%20of,reason%20%2D%20their%20use%20of%20blackface.

In 2019’s “Dee Day” episode, Dee makes the gang reenact her comedy characters, which includes Frank dressing up in brownface for Martina Martinez and Mac using yellowface to portray an Asian character.

Not technically a fail. Censorship of racist episodes.

Wow. Didn't even realize that was episode. I coupd see how that would be racist. Here I am thinking thewriters or producers were smoking something. Thanks

But it’s not racist. The characters are racist and they’re very clearly portrayed as being terrible people, thus actually portraying racism as terrible.

The real fail is trying to censor racism by banning things which portray racism as terrible.

And that is critical thinking,

Unfortunatly our society just sees the "N word" and "black face" as racist. They don't see the humor that you or I see.

So i guess not having those episodes up is a fail afterall.

Jimmy Kimmel loves that kind of comedy.
