So Rhino's listing of an approximate total running time of 455 minutes (which suggests 24 minute episodes) is wrong, apparently.

Our reviewer got this set, and indeed this set is edited it seems, and NO special features. The review will be posted shortly.

Yes it does. How can Rhino possibly say the set has the "original uncut" episodes? I'm still grateful to even have the set on DVD, but it would have been very nice to have the originals.

It's definitely false advertising, it can't be the complete first season if it's not uncut

Yeah I'll probably still buy it anyways, but this does suck

The thing that makes me mad is the commercial for the Too Close For Comfort DVD saying that the episodes are uncut
