And some other countries may follow suit.

Obviously, "The Simpsons" has made a LOT of nuclear references since Homer works at a nuclear plant . . . and you know, is somewhat lazy and incompetent.

The Austrian network dropped a 1992 episode titled "Marge Gets a Job" . . . and one from 2005 called "On a Clear Day I Can't See My Sister." Those deal with radiation poisoning and nuclear meltdowns.
