Alabama Public TV will not air 'Arthur' same-sex wedding episode.
A week after the season 22 premiere of the children's show"Arthur" was lauded for how it handed the same-sex wedding of the show's character Mr. Ratburn, Alabama Public TV said it will not airing the episode because of the trust parents have in its station, according to the network's program manager.
“Parents have trusted Alabama Public Television for more than 50 years to provide children’s programs that entertain, educate and inspire,” Mckenzie told the outlet via email. PBS representative Maria Vera Whelan tells ABC News that each local public outlet can pick and choose what they believe works for their communities.
The episode that's being shelved was titled"Mr. Ratburn and the Special Someone," and Arthur's class spent the entire show coming to the realization that their teachers actually have lives outside of school.
