I remember that episode! I really need to pick up the DVD's someday. I heard that they suffer from editing but beggars can't be choosers, right?

Only two episodes have suffered that flaw (which i was supremely pissed to find out) it was parts 1 and 2 of "Darkly Dawns the duck". There were a number of scenes deleted, including the kick ass capture sequence of DW knocking some bad guys out of a truck and into a trash can etc.

I don't know why it was edited out when they left out much more serious episodes like "Time and Punishment" and "Dead Duck" (where Darkwing actually DIES and goes to both Heaven and Hell, and is chased by the Grim Reaper) were left in totally unchanged. Disney really made some crappy decisions on these DVD sets.

Including Rescue Rangers but regardless, it's worth facing a few botched editing mistakes to get a series as wonderful as Darkwing Duck apart of your collection. At least I think so

I can't see anything being edited out for content. Maybe the cuts were ones made for syndication. The Simpsons will cut some stuff out just to shave off a few seconds so maybe Disney did the same thing?

Not sure, there were quite a few scenes removed and I remember them all on TV. I bought a VHS tape of those first 2 episodes off Amazon last week and got to see all of what was removed, which included:

-The bike chase sequence in the beginning
-Some bad guys twirling guns
-A bad guy screaming "were all gonna die"
-Extended scenes with Bulba in jail
-Extended jail scene with Darkwing and a prisoner
-Bulba making a crack how ugly the Thunderquack looked
-Bulba making a crack at Darkwing's ego

That's the jist of what was censored, it's annoying as hell the fact they blocked some of this stuff out. Some I could see but the intro. sequence with the motorcycles and stolen cars was amazing and it SUCKS big time they cut it.

It is not just TV to DVD that gets cut,

When I saw SpaceBalls (Mell Brooks) in the theater, there was a good 5 min scene that was cut out of the film, (maybe it was a Utah version?)

Smallville: Bizarro

I taped it from yesterday. I got to say I had all hope lost for this show after some pretty confusingly stupid plot points, and butt backwards weird episodes but this picked me up. Both Bizarro and Supergirl have been introduced now.

Despite obvious physical differences, I rather liked this portrayal of Bizarro, and Supergirl's actress isn't bad looking for a nobody. I'm getting sick of all these twists and turns with Lana but for the moment, this series has my hopes up again. I just hope they don't drop em again.

The last episode of Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law. It kinda made me sad to see it end. I mean I knew it ended, but seeing it do so was sad. I will always remember the times we shared.

Spin City - Goodbye (Part 1)

Part 2 is on later today! I remember when it first aired.

Spin City lost all appeal for me when Fox left. It just felt like a different show...
