I have noticed that Nick at Nite has shown the very begining of all the episodes.. (which TBS never showed).. BUT Nick at Nite always CUTS/EDITS out about 3 minutes of the Middle of EVERY Episodes!!!?????????

* WHY is this.. when they said when they first got the 3's company shows for nick at nite.. THEY put a press release out that THEY would SHOW the WHOLE Episode.. more then you ever saw in syndication.. (more then TBS)..

BUT they are NOT!! I great example of this is the Episode ( actually one that almost EVERYONE has said is the BEST one) The Episode where Jack is affraid to fly with Janet .. so they give him drugs... and Jack is REAL Crazy/Goofy.. REAL FUNNY... ( Greg Brady is in this one as a doctor)..

WELL in the MIDDLE THEY CUT OUT about 90% of the funny stuff Jack does in the middle of the episode!!!!!??? (which actually ruins the whole series for me on Nick at Nite)

WHY are they doing this??? They do it to every episode ( they show you MORE of the very begining or VERY end).. BUT CUT OUT SOME IN THE MIDDLE ( I guess to sell more commerical time)

* Does anyone know IF Nick at Nite has brought up WHY they are doing this??? and or IF they are going to SHOW THE FULL 100% of EACH Episode?..( any comments you have heard?? any press releases).

** It make NO sense.. it's like they don't even watch what is going on in the story.. THEY just cut where ever they want..( just to show more commercials in the middle).

Has anyone elese notice this??? I think the TBS station shows us all the funny stuff..

whats your opinon

Most reruns are missing at least a minute or two, so stations can insert more commercial time and make more money. It's really too bad.

I noticed the other night, when they ran the episode where Jack gets the fake mustache, that they completely cut out the scene where Jack goes to the salon and tries out different mustaches. That's probably the best scene in that whole episode.
