Why Fox Banned This ‘Married… With Children’ Episode for More Than a Decade

For a show that loved pushing buttons, Married… with Children still managed to have one episode that went too far for Fox, at least at the time. The Season 3, Episode 10 installment, titled “I’ll See You in Court,” was produced in 1989, and while the Bundys were already shocking some viewers in the late ’80s, the episode never aired on Fox during the show’s original U.S. run. Instead, “I’ll See You in Court” was briefly known as the show’s lost episode, though it eventually aired on FX on June 18, 2002, years after Married… with Children had ended its original run.

Let’s find out why the episode didn’t air and why it eventually was released.
