Fans complain that local TV stations are editing out too many lines from syndicated Seinfeld episodes to fit more commercials, making scenes nonsensical and the show unwatchable.

Now, tonight, on 43, "The Block", a station here in Cleveland, they are showing the Bosco episode. George is having dinner with Mr. Peterman. They cut out the line, from George to Peterman, "How about sports, you follow sports?".

However, they show the next line, where Jerry is sitting at his couch, and the T.V. says, "You gotta love sports!"

The last line MAKES NO SENSE WITHOUT THE LINE FROM GEORGE!!!

What the hell is going on with this editing? They are making these shows unenjoyable to watch!!!!!!

Does anyone have a set of the episodes, unedited? :) Seriously!!!

I've noticed that too. It seems a lot of programs in syndication are taking out another minute or so for commercials. We had the Bosco episode here in Philly tonight (on the Fox affiliate), and I noticed that myself. They're doing that with The Simpsons as well. Tonight, they carved up one of the Halloween specials.

So how long are these episodes in original?

Where I get them, they all seem to be 22 - 23 minutes, stripped of commercials.
