*In addition to destroying the Twin Towers and killing around 3,000 people, Osama bin Laden's 9/11 attacks were also responsible for the ban of the ''Pokemon'' episodes "The Tower of Terror" (due to the title) and "Tentacool and Tentacruel" (due to Tentacruel smashing a skyscraper), and the 29th episode of ''The Amanda Show'' due to the Lucklesses' house being hit by a meteor, though it was included in the Season 2 DVD release while the ban on the ''Pokemon'' episodes was eventually lifted. | |||
