Why isn't Nick at Nite airing "Paradise Lost" - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I noticed that Nick At Nite didn't air the episode "Paradise Lost" during the first go round, and they are skipping it again this month. Does anybody know why? Anyone have a copy of this episode?

Is this the one with Barry Williams?

I don't think so, the one with Barry Williams is when Janet goes to a party at Barry William's place and Jack mixes some tranquilizers that Terri gave him (to calm him for the plane ride) with booze and starts acting like a complete idiot.

Can you describe this episode to me? Because I think I watched every episode except this one.

The episode with Barry Williams is called "Up in the Air", not "Paradise Lost". Here's the description of "Paradise Lost" from the "3's Co." episode guide from the official site:

Synopsis: When a doctor going to Europe offers to let the trio rent his gorgeous beach house, they jump at the chance. Mr. Furley and Larry, both distraught at the news of losing their friends, get drunk together and devise a scheme to keep them from moving. Larry suggests that they "divide and conquer" - telling each of the trio that the other two don't want to move and are only doing it to keep the peace. Mr. Furley throws a bon voyage party where he and Larry appeal to the trio not to move. Furley changes his mind and wants them to go when he sees and falls for Terri's friend who comes to look at the apartment. All of this trouble to no avail —the doctor cancels his trip at no one can move anywhere!

OK, the first time, I thought the episode was skipped due to scheduling glitch, but now we know for sure. Why is Nick so hypocritical? They aired an episode of The Jeffersons awhile back where Florence the maid and Ralph the doorman were smashed. Also, Tootie from the Facts of Life gets drunk in an episode. And not to mention that Jack is flying after mixing tranquilizers with alcohol in "Up in the Air". If Nick would post the guidelines of what is/isn't appropriate for viewing then we would have a better understanding.

This episode will not air on N@N because of the scene with Larry and Furley drunk, this is 1 of the 2 episodes N@N will not air, well they might air it later but not now. The other is Going to Pot, both are still not scheduled the 2nd time around.

Going to Pot WILL be airing this time around!!! But Paradise Lost will not still...

I will update the TC Schedule on my site later today (around 4PM/ET)

So the reason N@N isn't showing "Paradise Lost" is because characters get drunk? N@N aired "Day of Beer and Weeds", in which Jack gets drunk off of Mr. Roper's beer. Why would they show that episode and not "Paradise Lost"? It doesn't make sense to me.

Wow, "Going to Pot" will be aired. That's great as it's very funny. IMO Furley has one of the funniest lines by saying, "It's not just pot (for cooking). It's the highest quality. It's from Mexico." It's been awhile so the quote is probably not 100% correct. Feel free to correct if anyone knows.
