Here's my thoughts on something like this, and this just doesn't apply to TVLAND, it applies to all networks.

IMO a show is made the way it was for a reason, for a network to take the show and butcher it because they feel something is inappropriate is just ridiculous to me! I for one don't want some network telling me what's appropriate viewing and what's not.

Take Boy Meets World on Disney, they cut out scenes and have banned episodes they feel are inappropriate for their network, but my feeling is that the show is not a children's show, and Disney shouldn't have picked Up BMW if they're gonna ruin the show, cause they're not consistent with what they edit, it's horrific

It's like when a network airs a movie, and they replace all the curse words with somehthing different, for me that ruins the movie, cause you know you can see the movie the way it was meant too, same with most tv shows.

I hope this makes sense

I agree 100%, TBS destroyed Good Times, TV LAND destroyed All in the Family and Sanford and Son and N@N is currently destroying Three's Company.
