The original review contained a joke during the puppet show where The Critic said, "Yes, I think he entertains the autistic children." After an extremely negative backlash Doug Walker apologized and the joke was removed as it was considered low and unfair. The incident eventually took the number one spot in The Next Top 11 Nostalgia Critic Fuckups (2010).
The first and only episode where the Critic utters the N-word, albeit imitating Santa when he's first thrown into jail, saying, "whassup, my niggas?" to the other inmates.
