I'm grateful the show is being broadcast, but it would be really nice if it's uncut.

I doubt they are totally uncut (I haven't seen many of these in so long, I can't recognize specific parts that may have been clipped), but I would have to say that of all the networks that have aired this show over the years, this network may be showing the closest version of the complete episodes (the least cut, if you want to put it that way). This is just going purely off memory, though, as I do remember some networks really butchering the episodes badly in the past.

Season's 1-3 were completely unedited with the original opening credits. There were about 4 episodes from season 4 that were unedited but the rest of the episodes have been edited with the 23 second opening credits. The episodes run about 22:25 at most for seasons 4 through 7 while the earlier seasons were 24 to 25 minutes long.

They definitely run longer than they did on TV Land. TV Land butchered the series then ran advertisements during the ending credits
