Edits on DVDs? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Hello -

does anyone know if there are edits on the DVDs?

I'm up to Season 7 and noticed that "Mike The Pacifist" is only 22 Minutes long - is this edited and if so at what point is it edited?

I haven't heard of edits for All In The Family. Is this the only episode you noticed ran short?

If it's 22 mins long then it's definitely edited which sucks for fans

I just checked the episode "Mike, the Pacifist" and my player gives me the runtime of 23:52. I'm not sure if that's edited or not, could go either way.

Any episode that wad produced in the 70's wad 25 mins and longer. Which means "Mike the Pacifist" is edited

Svenfan1234 · 02-25-2016, 09:38 PM

No, it isn't. It probably just ran short

TVFactFan · 02-25-2016, 11:37 PM

All sitcoms in the 70's were 25 mins long, the ep is edited

Svenfan1234 · 02-26-2016, 11:52 AM

Sigh. Not all shows were 25 minutes or longer. Some scripts were shorter and thus were around 23 or 24 minutes. This episode is NOT edited. Syndicated episodes are 22 minutes and this is almost 24. It's definitely not edited. Just ran short is all.

It can only be confirmed with a CBS version of this episode

Not even DVD

And do you have one? Even sitcomsonline said it looks unedited and syndicated episodes are roughly 22:30 and this is 23:52. I think it's safe to say that it is unedited. Good day sir or ma'am.

I'll have to watch this episode on the DVD and see if I notice anything where something might be cut. While it's possible some episodes simply run short, I do suspect that some of the All In The Family DVD episodes are edited versions. I don't believe that the series was released on DVD fully uncut. There likely are little snippets missing here and there, generally not really noticeable unless you're watching real close, or an expert on all the episodes and would know for sure if something was cut.

Svenfan1234 · 02-27-2016, 11:09 AM

They are all uncut episodes.

Do you know this one hundred percent for sure? Are you an expert on all the episodes?

That's a troll and don't take the person seriously. I'm about to report the person to the administrator

That poster is a stupid troll at that. It took me 15 years to find out the first ep of the Jeffersons was edited on DVD which I always assumed was uncut
