    Disgusting!

    We'll see how it goes.
    Nothing new there. They've been doing it for the last ~19 years that they've been running the simpsons, every episode is cut. They have never ever shown a full episode. Ever. It's so refreshing to watch old episodes on Fox8 these days and seeing all of the parts you never knew even existed.

    But heck, even channel 10 was cutting even further. For example, they'd cut the scene of scratchtasia in the simpsons, then the next time they showed the same ep, that scene was cut even more.

    I don't even put the tv onto ch. 10 anymore, nor have I for the last 6 years or so. Ch 10 can go DIAF. I'd rather pay the $50 or so a month for uncut TV. And hosted shows can be good, Maude & Kyle on Nicklodeon are great. Plus there's a few good channels on TVU.

    While I agree it theory about the cuts to the Simpsons, they have surprised me. I remember a couple of months ago watching "Separate Vocations" (when Bart goes good and Lisa becomes a rebel, from back when the show was good) on channel 10 and was surprised to see scenes (extended car chase, Lisa being offered smokes) that I'd never seen before in an episode I've seen many times before. I was like, this never happened before?!?

    Its annoying though. The last time I bothered watching toasted TV, it looked like they kept the host chit-chat to bewteen the shows. Obviously they don't anymore.

    What the heck is that chick from puzzle play doing on toasted TV now?!?!? Where's Pip? (disclaimer, I only know of puzzle play because in the morning just after I have gotten up, I expect to see a proper news programme and foolishly think that 9 am would be agood time for the news..)

    Disappointed about the butchering of the episode.
    I expected it, but am still disappointed.
    At least the kiddies watching it for the first time won't even notice, and when they buy the DVD to keep, it'll be full of surprises for them.

    The reply I got was something with far too many exclamation marks, and something about the new male host we are supposed to vote for. It looked like an automatically generated e-mail, even though it said they read every e-mail. Will post once (if?) I get a real e-mail.

    They're shocked that an adult is actually watching their show & they're jumping out of their skin in appreciation for it?

    I don't agree with cuts at all. They already make the show only 21min long so the commercials can fit.
