Default Original Season One Cold Opens

For those of you who live in the US, I thought you might like to see the original cold opens used in the four season one episodes that they edited to put Steve Urkel in. The episodes are in German however. In case you forgot what they were, I put the ABC Family cold opens link below.

Exclamation

When I saw "Season One" I thought that they had finally come out with the first season DVD ...

I've said it before, but boy am I glad, that we don't edit episodes here in Sweden.

Hey guys, someone was nice enough to translate the cold open. They said it wasn't perfectly translated, but I tried reading their lips in the scenes and it does pretty much look like they are saying that. Here they are:

Rachel's First Date:
Judy: Bye, Dad! See you!
Carl: Where are you going?
Judy: We've got a surprise for Rachel.
Laura: She needs something to get dressed up and I found something for her.
Judy: That's not true! I found it in my stuff.
Laura: Well, okay, whatever. But I'll give it to her and tell her you found it.
Judy: That's all right with me!

Body Damage:
Laura: That was a great meal, Mom.
Judy: I've got to go, too!
Harriette: Hold on for a minute! Your father must be here any moment, we have to go to the P.T.A. meeting. I've got to leave now, you children do the dishes.
...
Eddie: Well, she can't refer to me, 'cause... I am no child!
...
Harriette: I was referring to all of you!
...
Laura: I'll wash up the dishes.
Judy: I'll dry them.
...
Eddie: And I'll mop the floor...

Mr. Badwrench:
Eddie: Rain Man... Ghostbusters... A light dawned on a pig...
Judy: Time's up.
Laura: Dragnet (literally: Wet cops do not bite)... Dragnet!
Eddie: I though we're guessing movie titles and not sayings...
Laura: Now it's your turn, Spielberg.
Eddie: Allright, here comes a real movie title.
...
Judy: Go!
...
Judy & Laura: Batman!
Eddie: There's not a single line drawn.
Laura: Just a lucky guess.

False Arrest:
Rachel: Celery... lettuce... carrot stripes... are you going to feed rabbits?
Harriette: That's for Carl. I'm going to put him on a diet, as from today.
Rachel: Does he know?
Harriette: No!
Rachel: Then I'm out of here!
...
Laura: Mom, did you wash my leotard?
Harriette: It's lying on the table over there. And next time don't wait three months until you bring it back home. It went to the laundry room on its own.
Eddie: Mom, can I have thirty dollars for a band jacket?
Harriette: Wait a minute! You're not in the school band.
Eddie: I know. But Marsha Johnson is and if I wear the jacket I can sit next to her at the football games.
Laura: Forget about it, Romeo. She's going out with Billy Jones.
Judy: Yuck! There's clumpy peanut butter on that sandwich!
Laura: Meat loaf? I can't eat that, I'm a vegetarian!
Harriette: Since when?
Laura: Since yesterday! When Barney McGwire laughed so hard the Bolognese sauce came out of his nose.
Harriette: Laura! Ugh!
Eddie: What's that? Mustard? Mom, there's mustard on my sandwich! I hate mustard!
Hariette: Hey, where are we? A luxury restaurant? You make your food by yourself, I have to check on the laundry!
Laura: I just want an apple, nothing else.
Eddie: I'm leaving everything behind, I'm going to eat at the cafeteria.
Judy: I hate clumpy peanut butter!
Eddie: Bye, Mom!
Laura: Bye, Mom!
Judy: Bye, Mom!
Harriette: Bye, kids!
Carl: Harriette, is my food parcel ready?
Harriete: Yeah, it's already lying on the table.
Carl: Is this supposed to be everything?
Harriette: That's the new diet you're going to start today.
Carl: Allright, if I have to... but with this huge portions I'm not sure if there will be room left for dinner.
Harriette: That's the attitude, honey!
Carl: See you!
Harriette: Okay!
