Pop TV's hilarious comedy series Schitt's Creek may have swept the Emmys this year and is critically-acclaimed for its real, authentic portrayal of queer love, but that still isn't enough for some networks who seem to want to censor out some of the show's LGBTQ+ content...
Such was the case when Comedy Central India tweeted out a teaser of the season 5 episode "Housewarming" where the cast plays a game of spin the bottle. Notably edited out from the scene, however, was the exact moment when David (Dan Levy) and Ted (Dustin Milligan) swap a kiss, and obviously, fans of the beloved comedy are catching onto the censorship, including Dan Levy himself.
"You showed the kiss between two women, you showed the kiss between a woman and a man, then removed the kiss between two men?" the Schitt's Creek star and creator wrote in a quote tweet calling out Comedy Central India's edited video. "This is a show about the power of inclusivity. The censorship of gay intimacy is making a harmful statement against that message."
*sigh* THIS is why we can't have nice things.
Luckily, Dan was met with a lot of support from fans who let him know just how much the series still means to them! (Former Democratic presidential hopeful Pete Buttigieg's husband Chasten even chimed in!)
