How dare they begin cutting scenes from episodes! This is just enfuriating!

I hope they don't do this when they show "When Aliens Attack"...!

Yeah but it wasn't syndication, it was a second broadcast by FOX (the network). So, what did they cut?

I only think that they cut scenes the second, third et cetera time through. I'm pretty sure that it runs intact the first time.

What did they cut. I watched my tapes to much that I only 1/2 pay attention to the repeats cause I've seen em like 7 times.

I think they cut Fry drinking from the slurm can after Lela kept slapping it. I think that was longer.

Lyndsey Nagle: Do I detect a note of sarcasm?

Frink: (with sarcasm detector) Are you kidding me? This baby is right off the charts, mm-hai.

CBG: A sarcasm detector, that's a real useful invention.

Maybe this would be a good time for someone with all of the episodes taped to begin a "What was cut for syndication" list.

BTW, Jason? Have you given any thought to shortening your .SIG file?

	I assume you're talking about the repeat of "Fry and the Slurm
Factory (1ACV13)," but after timing my tape of the second airing and
comparing it to the times in the episode capsule, I can say with
certainty that they are exactly the same length.
	Either your local station made some snips of its own, or
whatever cuts they did make were replaced with new material of equal
length.
