“Seinfeld” (1998)
In the controversial episode of Seinfeld titled “Puerto Rican Day,” the main characters find themselves stuck in traffic caused by the Puerto Rican Day Parade. The storyline takes an offensive turn when Kramer accidentally sets a Puerto Rican flag on fire and attempts to extinguish it with his feet. The portrayal of this incident did not land well with many viewers, particularly the participants of the actual Puerto Rican Day Parade.
