Controversy
During airings of SpongeBob SquarePants on Channel 9 in, the National Council for Radio and Television started investigations regarding a claim made by one of its members, in which he says that "the show contains violent scenes for children." The reaction of audiences and fans of the show in Greece was rather negative, with people criticizing the fact that ESR was focusing on "mindless" children shows, and not on other "awful" at the time, shows on TV. Despite the Council taking action in order to ban the cartoon, the exact reason for the cancellation of airings there till this day, are unknown.
