Rejected			Although this Academy Award nominated short by Don Hertzfeldt was licensed for broadcast, network censors objected to some of the content and requested that it be edited for television audiences (likely due to the phrase "Sweet Jesus" and Turner Networks then routine objection to using Jesus' name in vain). The short was never broadcast despite two attempts to make it happen.
