Some of my favorite moments are often lost in syndication. I'm lucky enough to have taped every episode (missing a few) when they originally aired. So often after watching an episode in syndication I go back and watch my original on tape.

One of my favorite was cut from the "Secrets to a Successful Marriage" episode.

What are some of your favorite moments that have been lost in syndication?

It would have to be the scene in "Grade School Confidential" where Bart has to hang out with Agnes. They didn't cut the scene out, but they trimmed the funniest lines from it.

Mr Burns sends out the flying monkey..(I believe it was the Pin-Pals episode)

and "Truckasaurus:The Movie"

Not sure if you're talking about the same episode, but in "The Last Temptation of Homer" (a.k.a. Homer Loves Mindy), Burns sends the flying monkeys from "The Wizard of Oz" after Homer and Mindy when they order room service while staying at a Capital City hotel on company business. This scene has disappeared from syndication. Sigh.

In the ep where Homer goes to clown college, then later dresses up like Krusty to get free stuff, Homer goes to the Italian restaurant and the Luigi says: "Come with me Krusty you do not have to sit with this'a scum." The other people in the restaurant get annoyed. END SCENE. Now, the line they cut out was Luigi's: "I only call'a you scum compared to Krusty." To which the people in the restaurant agree and continue eating. Damn you Ebay! I mean, syndication cuts!

One of the Halloween episodes benefits from cuts.

In the sketch where Bart has a Siamese twin Hugo, the original episode shows Dr. Hibbert mentioning the separation process for Siamese Twins. The next scene shows him drop his paper cutter as if to insinuate that the twins were just separated, but he then holds up a pair of birth certificates. In syndication, his raising of the certificates was cut.

certificates.

That's benefical? I liked it when it was funny gag instead of that horrific act.

My personal most wanted scene is Kang and Kodo's appearance in THOH IV. It's my altime favorite THOH and also my favorite episode. How could they cut K&K out of a halloween special? -Anthony Regina

frank habetsMichael J. Astrauskas

Actually, I liked the original better -makes for a good spoof of B-horrors where Siamese twins separations are on the gruesome side (DePalma's Sisters, Henenlotter's Basket Case, Kaufman's Troma's War, to name a few). The joke here is that they *weren't* chopped by a paper cutter, as one would expect from the genre. But, hey, it's still funny the other way too.

In "The Last Temptation of Homer," there are two hilarious ones when Homer tries to watch TV with Marge to calm down:

Narrator: [The male Burmese fruitfly has over 1,000 sex partners, with virtually no guilt. Homer: Ah!] Sexy Womyn: Just do it! Homer: Ah! (Runs out) Sexy Womyn: [Examine your scalp for ringworm. (From the National Ringworm Association--The Other NRA)]

not really a fav but one i noticed the other day while watching the "mr. sparkle" ep was that they cut out homer dialing about 50 numbers to call Japan.

"He lied to us through song!, etc" is cut from syndication. But my favorite is where Nelson has to step in for Lisa on the Kidz Newz. He clears his throat, collects Lisa's copy sheets, and then starts making armpit farting noises while looking at the camera. Then, he turns to camera two and starts the farting noises again. The camera two part is cut in syndication, which is a crime against humanity...

THOH V in the episode where Homer travels back in time. He tries to escape "Big Brother" Ned, and gets chased by dogs:

Homer: Oh no, they're gaining on me! Wait...I have an idea! [reaches into sweater, pulls out a string of wieners] These wieners will give me the quick energy I need to escape! [eats them]

The opening scene with Bart and Homer from the same episode is also really funny.

That has to be the #1 worst cut, followed closely by Burns' flying monkeys at #2. Also... Homer teaching the kids about turkeys:

I'm pretty sure the end of a scene between Homer and Scorpio is cut from "You Only Move Twice" - the "do you have any sugar?" bit.

Scorpio digs the loose sugar out of his pants pockets. The next is cut: SCORPIO: Want any cream? HOMER: Uhhhhhhhh no.

I can't remember off the top of my head, but 22 Short Films is butchered also.

It is indeed cut and one of the funniest things in the whole episode in my opinion. But unfortunately the ends of scenes are easy prey for syndication cuts.

I like the cut of Homer saying "I wanna be rich like these guys. They're not as rich as they should be...etc." Gracie Lady: "Shh". "Don't shush me you rich bastard!"

When they cut the Troy Mclure drinking lines in the Brad Goodman episode. I think it sucks. The whole scene is cool! They chopped out the lines about the can of fortified wine etc.
