A famous episode of The Secret Affairs: Stepmother Friend’s Mom Daughter in lawSimpsons featuringthe voice of Michael Jackson won't be airing anymore.
The show's executive producer James L. Brooks told the Wall Street Journalhe would pull the episode from circulation, after he viewed HBO's Leaving Neverland.
Brooks made the decision with creator Matt Groening and producer Al Jean, who were in "one mind" about the choice.
The episode "Stark Raving Dad" first aired in 1991, where Jackson voiced a mentally-ill character named Leon Kompowsky. The song featured in the episode, "Happy Birthday Lisa," was written by Jackson, but was credited as "W A Mozart."
"This was a treasured episode. There are a lot of great memories we have wrapped up in that one, and this certainly doesn’t allow them to remain," Brooks told the news outlet.

Brooks acknowledged he will receive backlash from Jackson fans.
"I’m against book burning of any kind. But this is our book, and we’re allowed to take out a chapter," he added.
It follows radio stations around the world who have removed Jackson's music from rotation, amid the fallout from the accusations of child sexual abuse which were made against the singer in the documentary.
