And now i'm wondering if it will be included on the DVD season 3 set. I would be shocked if it wasn't. I have not seen this episode since 1989. This skipped episode from season 3 is-"A PLace To Die"

TBS aired that episode more than once. I have it taped from TBS. Also, that episode has aired in syndication, in Chicago, the series aired on UPN 50 and they have aired that episode.

I don't remember seeing in the fall of 2002. Well if they did air it I wonder why TV One would skip it. Well i guess it should be on the DVD in august

Yes A Place to Die will appear on the up-coming Good Times DVD; it is episode #16, so another excellent reason to purchase the DVD in August...

SOLOMON has a habit of thinking, "if he hasn't seen it, it was never seen." I think TV One even aired this episode, lol.

You maybe right. The channel did launch in Feb and I didn;t get it until April. So maybe the second time TV ONE aired season 3 they skipped because they showed it in Feb or March. Just like when TV One aired season 5 back in May, they aired Penny's Christmas but the second time they aired season 5 in July the episode Penny's Christmas was skipped.

I think the reasons episodes like "A Place to Die" and Christmas episodes are skipped because they are HOLIDAY-THEMED episodes. Nick at Nite does the same things as well, but still, all episodes should be shown, even if they are holiday themed.

I think you are right. TV ONE is skipping-the episode "A Place to Die" again tomorrow. So maybe it's because it's a New Years Eve Episode. What i find funny is that a station like TBS who chops up a episode so badly didn't skip the episode at all. Then you have a station like TV ONE that shows UNCUT episodes and skipped the episode 2 times. DAMMMMMM!
