that ABC controversially pulled years ago has been released onto Hulu, the show’s creator,“I’m excited to share that ‘Please, Baby, Please’ is now available on Hulu,” Barris wrote in a statement posted to social media. “Following the re-airing of ‘Juneteenth’ and ‘Hope,’ I asked Walt Disney Television to revisit making the episode available. Recognizing the importance of this moment, they listened and agreed.
Just before it was set to air in February 2018, however, ABC pulled the show over what network representatives and Barris claimed were “creative differences.
“We have long been supportive of Kenya and team tackling challenging and controversial issues in the show and we have always traditionally been able to come to a place creatively where we felt good about the story he was telling, even if we felt it was pushing some hot buttons,” Dungeyin a conference call. “And he felt he was getting to share the story in the way it should be shared.
“He’d given his blood, sweat and tears to [the episode], which they had signed off on every step of the way—from the outline, to the script, to the table read, to the point where they actually spent the money and made the episode,” Anderson, who is also an executive producer of the show,in September 2018. “And I don’t know what those conversations were, but we entered into this partnership with the understanding that we would be able to tell the stories that we wanted to tell.
'Trump's America'. Lies and propaganda.

Wow! ABC, shame!
Shout out to the coward ass white people who deemed this controversial who are now shamelessly displaying BlackLivesMatter 🙄 blackish
I look forward to seeing the episode that was shelved.
They don't get points for releasing it now when it's 'trendy'. Sit the hell down ABC
For those of you who still can't recognize it, this is white power suppressing Black voices. White people don't like to face the reality of America. Its called white fragility.
Did it mention the Antifa violence?
It was shameful that it was never able to air when it was created and that ABCNetwork never apologized. I’m glad they’ve released it - but they should also air it on their network in a prime time slot. They did funnyblackdude wrong and he deserves a public apology. CENSORED
Blackish too truthful for ABC?! 🤨
