DVD on ME TV

[treky]

last week,ME TV showed the episode THE SAM POMERANTZ SCANDALS (they acctualy want us to think that Rob, Laura etc. put together an ENTIRE show in just one afternoon? ) anyway, whenever they show that one in sydnication, the opening scene is when Rob, Laura, Buddy, Sally, Pickles and Mel walk into the hotel lobby, and the scene before that when they're in Robs office talking about it, is only on the DVD. But ME TV showed it!!

So, my question is for those who have had ME TV for a while now-do they show ALL their shows uncut like that; as far as you know? I know they speed up certain parts of some shows.

Most of the shows on MeTV are in fact the original full-length network versions. They are sped up from 25-26 minutes to fit 23 minutes (51 min >>> 46 min for hour shows) and the audio is pitch-corrected so it isn't even noticeable. A few of their shows like The Brady Bunch, Happy Days, and I Love Lucy are the same syndication cuts that have been used for decades. But it all depends on what is available to them. MeTV really tries to obtain the best possible prints they can and air them in a respectable manner. Wonderful network.
