History YMMV / TheSimpsonsS10E23ThirtyMinutesOverTokyo

* AlternativeJokeInterpretation: When Willie checks the ''Up-Kilt'' camera and exclaims "AHH THAT'S WILLIE!". Was it an up-kilt shot of ''him'' that was obtained without his knowledge, or did the "model" (for lack of a better descriptor) have a penis?

* AngstWhatAngst: The Simpsons don't seem particularly traumatized by the fact that they saw Homer taking a major dump from a camera angle that was ''right under his bottom'' (other than the fact that they can be heard screaming when they saw it).

* ValuesDissonance: One way that host Chuck Garabedian saved money is a yacht with beautiful women, saying the yacht was cheap because “it smells like cat pee. And those beautiful women? They used to be men.”, which {{squick}}s out the audience. Today, the latter reaction comes off as horribly transphobic.

* UnacceptableTargets: The reason the episode was banned in Japan: Japanese culture forbids depiction of the Emperor in any media that isn't news or children's storybooks, so to see him be portrayed at all, much less in such an unflattering manner (Homer tosses him into a pile of soiled sumo mawashi), was a big no-no to them.

* CrossesTheLineTwice: "Ya see this tux? I got it cheap, 'cause Roy Cohn died in it!"
** For those who don't know, Roy Cohn [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roy_Cohn#Death died of AIDS]], but he was ''not'' a pleasant person when alive; that's probably the only reason the show got away with making that joke.

They used to be men.”, which {{squick}}s out the audience. Today, the audience reaction (and the joke) would be considered transphobic (not that it wasn't back then, but these days, there'd be vocal outrage over it).

** Also, having an entire episode with such broad Japanese stereotypes, these days, would have been scrapped entirely.

* MexicansLoveSpeedyGonzales: A handful of people in Japan who managed to watch the episode loved it and believed that it should not have been removed in the first place citing that it would still be protected by Japan's free speech laws (in spite of the scene with Homer tossing the Emperor into a sumo mawashi Dumpster).

Although, if this was an issue, they could have just skipped over his depiction and their arrest would still have made sense.
