I just found out today that N@N aired Wings eps from the last two seasons UNCUT. Does this make sense to anyone? I know it doesn't make sense to Three's Company Fans

Because N@N management is stupid. :lol:

probably because the last 2 seasons of Wings were made in 95-97, which is recent enough ago that the networks originally had longer commercial breaks during an episode, that Nick could air the entire show and not be pressed for any time, probably only 20-22 mins an episode. Whereas most TC episodes were 25-26 mins long unedited.

I didn't think that any network aired re-runs uncut anymore. This is news to me. I have no idea why this would be the case unless the shows were short enough not to have to be cut to fit in all the commercials (but that seems very unlikely).

OK, I posted before I saw Buffy's response. Buffy is probably exactly right.

thats all I could think of.
its not like they're playing favorites -- N@N obviously hates both shows
yet here at SO, they're 2 of the most popular.

a lot more popular than most shows.
Not as popular as "Three's Company", "Happy Days", "The Facts of Life" or "Mama's Family" -- but nothing is.

That's the only thing I can think of, and that does make sense.

Nick@Nite is operated by dumbasses
