I watched the Office Premeire again on Hulu.com this afternoon and noticed scenes I did not see on Thursday night. So why is that? Why the hell am I seeing a longer version on the internet vs on NBC?

But i thought there were only CUTS on CABLE? So now you only see a UNCUT episode on DVD and the Internet?

So that means that ratings can't be a true determining factor because most people are probably watching on the Internet like I will be next Thursday

For now, ratings still are a determining factor. As for the future, who knows what is in store?

Not sure about The Office, but I know with Parks & Rec they often put the "producer's cut" online & on the DVDs, which runs a little longer than the aired version.
