“You showed the kiss between two women, you showed the kiss between a woman and a man, then removed the kiss between two men?” Levy wrote on social media. “This is a show about the power of inclusivity. The censorship of gay intimacy is making a harmful statement against that message.”
Levy added, “I thought I made this pretty clear but for those who are confused, this is about a channel in India. Comedy Central in America is not censoring the show. They have been lovely and respectful. Thank you for your time.”

The final season of “Schitt’s Creek” was also just made available on Netflix, where all six seasons are now streaming in their entirety. Since the final season was uploaded, “Schitt’s Creek” has skyrocketed in streams. As of the morning of October 7, “Schitt’s Creek” is the second most-streamed TV series on Netflix (behind the streamer’s brand-new original “Emily in Paris”) and the third overall most-streamed program.
