I know there were not any for Three's Company for a fact. I think The Brady Bunch had teaser scenes though.

You know this is a question we may never know the answer to because most of us were not around to know if All in the Family had teasers. Or any other 70's sitcom. Plus teasers would never be on a DVD or Columbia House Tapes.

I have original ABC airings from seasons 6 to 8. And unedited episodes from seasons 3, 4 and 5 -- and they do not have any. A person I know also has season 2 unedited, and they also do not have any.

UNEDITED and Original ABC Airings? Pav have you ever been into tape trading? Because I would really like to see Jack's phone scene with CHrissy.

The unedited episodes are from overseas I think. I believe Israel, I got them in a trade a few years back. I also have the first 15 Three's a Crowd episodes, 13 of which are from Israel too. Thanks to TJ for those! I do not have the time to make copies right now, but PM me and I will give you an email address on who has these as well.

Sadly.

Why would teasers never be on DVD's if they are supposedly on there UNCUT?

Oh I didn't think they would bother putting teasers on a DVD.

Teasers, are IMO, funny parts of the show and are critical. Cutting them out is like cutting out the whole point of the show, to be funny.

Not many shows have them anyway. Only older sitcoms I can think of are Welcome Back, Kotter and The Brady Bunch. Recent shows, from the 90s, usually had them.
