H ong Kong's fans won't see the irreverent American family make fun of Chinese censorship after Disney beat Beijing to it by pulling a 16-year-old episode that might have displeased the mainland dictatorship. Local media in Hong Kong reports that "Goo Goo Gai Pan," an episode during the Simpson's 16th season in 2005, cannot be accessed in the area. The episode features the Simpsons traveling to Beijing and references Tiananmen Square with a sign stating that "nothing happened" there in 1989. The Simpsons once visited Tiananmen Square in Beijing, to see first-hand the place where nothing happened in 1989. pic.twitter.com/xn81MJ7rPZ...
