Episode 24 of Season 2 - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I beleive the title of episode 24 was called Bad Timing. However, CTS in Canada, has recently been running the entire series from the start, yet skipped this episode, I believe. Now, I know in the original airing, their was a parental advisory, but considering the show still had a PG rating and under, does this not sound unfair in sensoring it? Has anyone else had this episode skipped? And how can I get it, I'm trying to watch the whole series from start to end...

Hi. That episode has aired in the US--actually with the original opening title of Valerie--not the Hogan Family.(The only episode that holds that distinction) I don't think that it should be censored as today's shows are a lot worse with their content. Where to find it, hmmmmm...I don't have it but maybe someone around the internet does. Keep checking around and Good Luck!

So, the director of programming at CTS in Canada sent me a reply to the angry email I sent him about episode 24. In it, he claims that because the series originally aired in the US in prime time, he feels a different audience is watching it when it airs now at 4:30 p.m. However, if this episode has now been deemed worthy of censoring, how many others will be done? Future episodes are coming up which deal with sex, drugs, AIDS, etc. so does that mean all these episodes will be deleted as well?
Any comments, or does anyone want to help me send email to CTS. If yes, I'll post the directors email address next time.

In the USA, the episode has not been skipped, at least to my knowledge, so I don't know how to help you there. But I am offering to help you out in one way. I have this episode taped and would be willing to dub it for you. My system is NTSC (USA version) so I don't know if your VCR is compatible but if it is, then I'm willing to help out. Let me know, OK?

Take care!

That was the episode about David and condoms I think. I have that one, taped of NBC in it's original broadcast. I remember that Mark wasn't on that one.
