GI on tv - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

lm · 01-30-2009, 02:36 PM

MickeyMac's respond to my last episode discussion has prompted me to resurrect an old question I asked. I watch GI on DVD and, years ago, I did so on network tv--I don't have cable. What I would like to know from you cable watchers is two things:

1. Are certain episodes hardly ever played. (In the first season, for example)
Can you tell me some examples of these?

2. Are PARTS of episodes left out? For example, is the final scene of Matchmaker aired (where G/M are walking together) or the fake G/M wedding scene in "Mr. and Mrs." If so, can you tell me some examples of parts?

If you can't help me specifically with this, is there a site that can tell me what episodes are/have been aired. But, I'd love a head start with some info if you can help. Thanks!

TVLand/Nick at Nite and TBS aired them in order. The episodes had almost the exact same cuts on both networks. I do remember there was a scene from Castaway Pictures Presents that aired on TBS but not on TV Land. It was the Skipper rescuing everone off the boat. Most everything else though had the same cuts.

I know TVland cuts out scenes so they can make room for more commericals.
