Edited for Syndication	comment	When a show is sold to a foreign country, things may well be changed for a foreign audience. That is, things apart from the obligatory dubbing or subtitling. This is especially prevalent in anime exported to America and other western countries for broadcast, though it's lessened over time. Sometime in the '70s or '80s, television standards in America changed to include more commercials for financial purposes, so shows made before a certain point might be edited to add several extra minutes of commercials (also, US local TV and off-prime network TV has always included more commercials than prime time network TV, so programs originally made for prime time are almost always trimmed for syndication to non-network stations, or non-prime time re-runs on the network). This might also happen to BBC shows exported to the US or Canada, unless shown on commercial-free public or pay television, or run in a longer timeslot with adverts added to make up time. Occasionally this is done where there is no clearance for footage to be re-used and an alternate clip may be shown. A similar phenomenon where chunks of screen time are removed for other reasons falls under Bowdlerise, though some scenes which are "edited for syndication" (read: the ones that are cut for reasons not pertaining to length or copyright/licensing issues) are cut because a scene is considered so violent, vulgar, blasphemous or sexually charged that it has to be cut or toned down in reruns on television, so bowdlerization and Edited For Syndication can go hand in hand, depending on the circumstances behind a given edit. A Sub-Trope of Deleted Scene.

Edited for Syndication / int_100aff60	comment	Police, Camera, Action!, a British Edutainment Show and documentary, has been heavily edited when it reaired during 2007-2014, with the following episodes changed significantly: The original episode "Police Stop!" from 1994 is retitled as "DANGER! DRIVERS AHEAD" on-screen and the show re-titled to Police Camera Action! with a lot of the original links removed, in an attempt to make it flow better; in this one, Alastair Stewart the presenter is very Mr. Exposition at the end of each sequence. "Safety Last", from 1995, has three pieces of footage edited out, including a jaywalking scene involving a Peugeot 205 and a woman on a bicycle nearly hit by a pickup truck; in re-runs, these are not shown. "Out of Control" from Series 4 in 1997 had a scene of go-karting removed from re-edits and some footage cut for rights reasons. This means the show has five presenter links (two before commercial break, three after) rather than the six presenter links originally. (three before commercial break, three after) "The Wild Side" from Series 5 in 1998 had a scene edited out where there's a Metropolitan Police control room in 1996 with a man viewing the footage from the helicopter, presumably due to likeness rights, and a mock hostage situation as a training exercise in Wales, and instead of being two presenter links, it's one sequence rather than two. "Rust Buckets" from Series 6 in 1998 had a scene edited out where presenter Alastair Stewart takes a 1970s Renault 5 to a crusher in a salvage yard in Watford, and then a clip from Touchdown Productions of a Ford Laser in unroadworthy condition is cut; instead there's only two presenter links in Part One before the commercial break rather than three presenter links, and the episode is 21 minutes long without commercials, rather than 24 minutes (full runtime with commercials is 30 minutes, whichever version was aired). "In The Driving Seat" from Season 7 in 2000 has some footage cut out towards the end, although it's shown before the commercial break, yet not aired in re-runs. "Getting Their Man" from Season 9 in 2001 replaces the end music with "The Stripper" by David Rose instead of Hot Stuff by Donna Summer.

Edited for Syndication / int_164e185	comment	From 1999 to 2001, the BBC aired two versions of Noddy's Toyland Adventures: one that was just the 10-minute shorts by themselves (which was the original show that premiered in 1992, running in repeats), and the other being the 30-minute Canadian version of the show, The Noddy Shop (an edit originally meant for the North American market). In Malaysia, it was more clear-cut- the original Noddy's Toyland Adventures aired on Metrovision as one of its original launch lineups in 1994. In 2000, long after Noddy's Toyland Adventures had ended (and one year after Metrovision declared bankruptcy and ceased broadcast), government-owned RTM-TV2 brought in The Noddy Shop. The Polish dub of The Noddy Shop made the Anything Can Happen At Christmas special a two-part episode.

However, it comes with a price that one of the segments on the episodes would be cut out (eg. Mr. Lazy's segment in "Chores", Miss Calamity's in "Movies".), so they would either pick the whole intro or the whole episode depending on the situation.

Edited for Syndication / int_1bd69d53	comment	When The Adventures of Pete & Pete was still being aired as shorts, several half-hour long specials aired during that time. When the series became Half-hour fulltime, those specials were re-edited to appear as standard episodes, adding the title sequence and song "Hey Sandy" and re-scoring the episodes with the standard cues. This is most jarring with "How We Spent Our Summer Vacation".

Several parts of the framing story and half of the short cartoons would be cut, though on each episode, two versions of the rerun would exist: one with Troubles the Cat, Samuel and Nina and a Big Bag Beat music video, and another with William's Wish Wellingtons, Slim Pig and Koki. As part of this, Tobias Totz and His Lion was completely dropped from the reruns.

Edited for Syndication / int_21b21f35	comment	The Comedy Central run of BoJack Horseman shortens the theme song, and cuts a few lines short (for example: in the premiere of "Our A-Story is a D-Story", they cut the second part of Bojack saying, "That son of a bitch. That literal son of a bitch," regarding Mr. Peanutbutter, as well as the second half of the Aryan gang member telling Todd, "You dance like a white man, and I love it." The jokes still work without the second half, though they become more subtle). Occasionally this weakens the impact, however, especially for dramatic lines; in "Horse Majeur", when Mr. Peanutbutter talks about the dream where Diane is suddenly gone and his life goes on without her, they cut the part where he admits he feels relief in the dream.

Edited for Syndication / int_22f240e4	comment	The Cannon half of the Cannon/Barnaby Jones Crossover "The Deadly Conspiracy" originally ended with McKenna going the Destination Defenestration route via Parks, thus setting up a Cliffhanger to lead into the Barnaby Jones part. For syndication the episode climaxes with Corcoran trying to kill McKenna but ending up getting killed himself, so it can be shown as a one-parter... but the Barnaby Jones version continues on the original path (beginning with a Cannon recap) even in syndication, which can be awkward for anyone watching the episodes back-to-back.

Edited for Syndication / int_261c8d3f	comment	Syndicated episodes of The Simpsons are often butchered. Mostly these cuts are for time constraints, though there have been times where episodes were edited for content. In "Marge Gets a Job", references to Bart having Tourette's Syndrome [and Bart's subsequent barking and snarling of "Shove it, witch!" to Mrs. Krabappel] were redubbed with "rabies". Show creator Matt Groening expressed disdain for this practice on the show's season one DVD set. The opening credits of most syndicated episodes are also cut down, usually deleting Lisa's sax solo and Bart's chalkboard punishment gag and skateboarding through town the cutting straight to the "couch gag" (in most syndicated episodes, the couch gag used is the one from season five's "Rosebud"note The "Mr. Burns loses his teddy bear" episode where the family rush to the couch, only to find an exact clone of them already on the couch). Re-runs of the episode "The Itchy & Scratchy & Poochie Show" use a completely different couch gag. The Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band cover pastiche in the original is replaced by The Flintstones gag from a few seasons prior, although the audio from the Sgt. Pepper one remains.note "The Itchy & Scratchy & Poochie Show" marked The Simpsons surpassing The Flintstones as the longest-running animated series The FXX version of The Simpsons (first seen on the "Every Simpsons Ever" marathon) airs the episodes the way they are on the DVD (with a lot of scenes that were edited on free-TV syndication returned after years of being omitted). However, a lot of episodes that had content cuts haven't been reverted back to the way they used to air note (with some exceptions: "The Telltale Head" doesn't have that extra scene where Bart tells the town that they've lost their sense of town pride and citizenship that was included in the free-TV version, "The City of New York vs. Homer Simpson" has the World Trade Center scenes and references reinstated, the Superbowl commercial on "Sunday, Cruddy Sunday" has the tagline "The Catholic Church: We've Made a Few...Changes" instead of editing it to remove "Catholic", the Try and Save detective's line about being at home with a pack of cigarettes and a short length of hose if he wants smoke blown up his ass in "Marge Be Not Proud" is there, Milhouse does tell Bart that he got the wicker basket with the monkey in it from "Pier One" instead of "Trader Pete's" on "Home Sweet Home-Diddly-Dum-Doodly", and "Marge says "Eh, BFD" in "All's Fair in Oven War"), meaning that Burns says "I guess there's nothing left for me to do, except kiss my sorry ass goodbye" while Bart says, "Bad influence, my butt" on "Homer, Defined"note the original version had it the other way around, the original "Tourette Syndrome" line on "Marge Gets a Job" is replaced with the "rabies" line (yet Bart's faking his Tourette-style twitching and muttering "Shove it, witch" and muttering "Tourette syndrome" are still there), Mr. Burns still calls Smithers "Chinese" instead of a "Chinaman" on "New Kids on the Blecch" and Homer remembers that Barney's birthday is on the same day as Lassie the Dog's (July 15th) instead of Adolf Hitler's (April 20) on "Viva Ned Flanders". note This wasn't for censorship reasons like the other edits, but rather a case of being Distanced from Current Events. The first rerun of this episode aired on the exact date of a tragedy that happened to be on April 20th. Interestingly, just how much of an episode FXX will cut seems to be dependent on the day and time its airing: when the channel plays marathons of the show on Sundays, the episodes are almost always uncut and feature every joke from the original Fox airings, while they use the syndicated versions when the show airs on weeknights. One channel in Ireland cut out the famous Land of Chocolate sequence from "Burns Verkaufen der Kraftwerk", but it was brought back later. It's unknown if this was either intentional or a mistake. "Lisa Gets an A" was edited to cut from Homer yelling, "Why, you little—" at Pinchy to Ms. Hoover distributing the test scores. What it skips over is a pivotal moment where Homer goes from raising Pinchy with the intention to eat him to truly bonding with him. ("I Can't stay mad at such a helpless little mammal.") Of course, the DVD/FXX version retains the full scene. There are occasional syndication cut-induced plot holes, such as Marge having a hole in her hair for one scene during "Sideshow Bob's Last Gleaming", attributed to part of a megaphone blasting through her hair. Two versions exist of "The Great Phatsby": the original hour-long version and a two-part version. Notably, Disney+ had the latter version on launch day before switching to the hour-long version in January 2020. Towards the end of "Team Homer", Homer tells Marge: "We were so close to winning the championship. Now, thanks to Burns, it's never going to happen. And I spent so much time building that trophy case." The scene then cuts to the trophy case with an Academy Award in it that Homer has stolen, with Don Ameche's name being crossed out. In the original broadcast, it was Haing S. Ngor's name who had been crossed out. Ngor was murdered between this episode's original air date and the subsequent syndicated broadcasts (including cable, streaming, and home media releases), and his name was changed to Ameche's because the producers were afraid it would be implied that Homer may have murdered Ngor to steal his Oscar. In the episode "Take My Life, Please", a man says that he is going to "think of all the women [he] could've talked to but didn't". The syndicated version cuts out the part where we actually see him doing so, in the form of a poem.

Edited for Syndication / int_27b0262b	comment	Two different versions of MythBusters were broadcast in the United Kingdom. On the Discovery Channel, the show is practically identical to the U.S. original except with an Anglicized voiceover (being more metric friendly, and replacing American terms with British terms where appropriate). The version shown on the BBC is edited down to 30 minutes with a more humorous voiceover. Meanwhile, down in Australia, MythBusters is repackaged and condensed for use as a segment on the gee-whiz science show Beyond Tomorrow (which is another production by the same production company as Mythbusters). The latter program is then turned around and re-broadcast in America on The Science Channel (owned by Discovery Networks, who make MythBusters in the first place), complete with the "new" version of MythBusters. (At least it still airs in full on SBS.) Some of the American DVDs contain the 43-minute episode that you saw on Discovery... but some contain the full 50 minute episode that Beyond Productions made. The cuts in the US-aired versions are all about the commercials. Sometimes the American version (and, presumably, other versions) will accumulate so much material that some of it has to be edited out just so that the episode will fit in the time slot; these usually include a quick sting at the end with Adam informing the viewer that they can see the stuff that didn't make it to air on the Discovery channel website.

Edited for Syndication / int_2abd5315	comment	The British version of Whose Line Is It Anyway? had a game cut from each episode, due to added commercials when shown in America (first on Comedy Central and later on BBC America). Some language and raunchier jokes would be censored; a notable example is a season 9 Film Dub which was removed entirely thanks to featuring footage of about a dozen topless women. Additionally, during the last few years of Comedy Central's airings and BBC America's run with it, the networks only aired episodes from seasons six onward—probably to attract fans of the American version, since those episodes are from when Ryan and Colin became regular contestants.

Most of the edits are surprisingly graceful, but some â€“ especially in the last couple episodes (including Kamina's talk with Simon and Viral's family in the Lotus-Eater Machine and the Big Bad's impossibly huge explosion) â€“ can really screw up important moments, as can some incredibly inappropriately timed commercial breaks. Though to be fair, there was almost nothing unimportant in the last couple episodes.

Edited for Syndication / int_3589079d	comment	After the fiery talk show Hot Seat with Wally George was cancelled in 1992, it spent a decade in reruns. Originally, all the reruns did was dub a new theme song in and change the copyright year to whenever it reran. The edits got much heavier by 2000; The intros and credit sequences were replaced with completely new ones, yet another new theme song was dubbed in, and some episodes even had their segments moved around. The commentary, audience questions, and ticket plug were all removed, basically boiling the show down to just Wally grilling his guests. To fill out the runtime, clips from other episodes (deemed "Golden Oldies") were edited in. The show returned for another round of reruns from 2020 to 2021. These reruns would air the show as it originally aired, albeit with the top and bottom of the picture cropped to simulate widescreen. Also, the addresses and phone numbers during the ticket plugs were blurred outâ€¦but not muted in any way, so you could still hear Wally and the audience's "999-5000" call-and-response routine.

Edited for Syndication / int_35e05f2a	comment	RWBY is a web-original series with 15-minute episodes, but when it was licensed for Japanese television, it had to be recut into more standard 22-minute episodes. This was especially a problem for Volume One, where the episodes ranged anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes. As such, the first Japanese episode actually covers the events of the first four webisodes, and in the process cuts the character-establishing scenes for most of Team JNPR, who serve as secondary protagonists to the titular Team RWBY. The sole exception is Pyrrha Nikos, seemingly because her first scene further establishes Weiss Schnee's initial Ice Queen personality.

However, the American syndicated airings on the A&E Channel contain scenes which weren't broadcast during its initial broadcast run (for instance, a longer gunfight between Jack Bauer and the Drazen family in the first season finale). Every re-airing of the premiere episodes of the second and third season is edited down to the normal 42-or-so minute length as the originals were about 9 minutes longer as they did not feature any commercial interruption. Further, there is one instance in the Season 2 premiere in which some events occur in different orders.

Edited for Syndication / int_492240cf	comment	MADtv (1995) first aired in syndication on local TV stations, under the title, "The Best of MADtv". Only the first two seasons aired. The show then got picked up by Spike TV (back when it was TNN — The Nashville Network, a channel dedicated to everything that most people would consider "redneck" or "trailer trash") and aired the first two seasons, followed by seasons 3-5. The local station and TNN cuts of MADtv were 30 minutes long (MADtv runs their show for an hour while SNL runs for 90 minutes [an hour and a half], and, much like the reruns from Saturday Night Live, the ones for MADtv only had the best material from a given episode while leaving the weaker, less funny stuff on the cutting room floor). The TNN reruns were off before anyone noticed (that was when Viacom had "refocused" the network and eventually turned it into Spike TV) and eventually the show found its way to Comedy Central after E! acquired the rights to air Saturday Night Live (MADtv's long-standing rival). Comedy Central aired seasons 1-7 of MADtv in their full, hour-long version [with some bleeping and/or muting for obscene language], and as the years went by, seasons 8, 9, 10, and 11 were added as well (seasons 12 and 13 were only shown on Comedy Central's Canadian sister channel, Comedy Network, and the final season [season 14] has yet to be aired on either channel). In 2008, Comedy Central phased out the first seven seasons of MADtv in favor of the episodes from seasons 8-11, and those episodes have been running until 2010, when MADtv was dropped from the syndication schedule in favor of reruns of reruns of canceled Comedy Central original programming, exports of canceled animated comedies (i.e. Futurama, The Goode Family, and Sit Down, Shut Up), more movies, and more stand-up specials. MADtv even parodied the practice to hell and back, with a PAXnote PAX was a channel featuring religious and family friendly programming, hence the joke. As of the late 2000s, PAX is now Ion Television and very rarely edits programs. version of an episode of The Sopranos that removed all the swearing, sex, and violence, bringing its 40+ minute run time to just under three minutes. Once upon a time, it was merely a commentary on how the frank, HBO-style depictions of sex, violence, and foul language would be edited on any channel that wasn't a premium cable channel. Now, the idea of an edited for syndication Sopranos is a reality, only it's syndicated on A&E and a bit more well-done than what MADtv showed.

The first season, before the show was expanded to either 90 or 120 minutes as part of The NBC Mystery Movie franchise, consisted of six one-hour episodes. For syndication, these were chopped up and combined into 3 90-minute episodes, each of which haphazardly combined the plots of two separate episodes with hasty re-dubbing and re-editing. On DVD, these cuts are not restored. Quincy, M.E. reversed this problem; the first episodes were part of The NBC Mystery Movie in its final season, and these 90-minute shows were later cut for 60-minute slots in syndication.

These scenes are thankfully restored on the DVD sets. The same is mostly true for other Disney Afternoon shows that were edited in reruns (such as TaleSpin and Darkwing Duck). There are many lost commercial break fade-in/outs, but the only actually censored episodes are "Dirty Rotten Diapers" and "Double Darkwings". Disney's streaming of Disney Afternoon shows unfortunately seem to have taken a step backwards regarding this. DuckTales (1987) and TaleSpin appear to completely be the Toon Disney cuts; Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers seems to be completely uncensored, except for "Puffed Rangers" (which was heavily redubbed from its original airing to avoid Chinese stereotypes and jokes).

However, half-hour shows (like pre-Dave Red Dwarf or Catherine Tate) aren't cut - instead, they become 40 minutes and three are shown, which gets them back to the "on the hour" schedule. BBC America used to run BBC shows in a 40-minute format. The remaining 20 minutes of the hour would be filled with short-subject films or previews for other shows. They quit doing this and began just hacking into the sitcoms to make them fit the 30-minutes-with-commercials template. "Red Dwarf" was shown in its complete format the first time BBCA aired it. By the time is was ready to repeat the show, it had edited all of the episodes dramatically.

Edited for Syndication / int_73d7930f	comment	Pretty much every American TV series sold into syndication suffers from this. Since the shows are routinely syndicated to local stations throughout the country, each will make cuts to fit commercials from local advertisers. Therefore, people in different markets can get different scenes/lines cut. Also occurs when a US series is sold to another country. British channels often have breaks where the US version didn't, whereas the parts with two seconds of black screen (where the US version would have had a break) are intact. For example, the re-runs of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, where a few episodes even have a break after the Cold Open, the result being that part 2 opens with the titles.

Edited for Syndication / int_746814ae	comment	In addition to the routine international cut mentioned above, there's an isolated instance of an episode of Arthur being given an alternate title. The episode "When Carl Met George" has the alternate title "George and the Missing Puzzle Piece". One could argue that the production team anticipated that the original title would be misconstrued as homoerotic, and wanted to be prepared. More specifically, they probably didn't want a repeat of the Postcards from Buster "Sugar Time!" fiasco. note Not every PBS affiliate agreed to air the latter, as it featured a family headed by a lesbian couple.

The original "Rise and Shine" opening and closing sequences were not restored until the series was relaunched in syndication in the 1990s and subsequently released to DVD. And even then edits remain; all references to sponsorship (especially by the cigarette company that sponsored early episodes) remain excised. When MeTV started broadcasting the series in September 2019, they originally used "Rise and Shine" to open and close the first two seasons, but in October 2020, they switched over to using the "Meet the Flintstones" intro and closing credits as well.

Most egregious in the episode where Hawkeye and BJ try to top each other in pranks. A scene early on has a wounded soldier offering Hawkeye a cigar, which Hawk, Properly Paranoid at this point, refuses and proceeds to "disarm", fearing BJ had put the soldier up to giving Hawkeye an exploding cigar. This scene is cut in syndication, but a callback at the episode's climax, where BJ assures Hawkeye that the incident was innocent, is left in, likely confusing viewers who haven't seen the full version.

Every new segment (i.e. when returning from a commercial) starts with a 2 second Black and White still shot of how this segment will end. When syndicated, you'll get at least one segment per episode that doesn't end with the preordained image, and then doesn't start up with the customary lead-in after the commercials. In Australia, they've apparently figured out how to make their own in house. You can still tell though, 'cause the DIY ones aren't still images. Which, if you're familiar with the show, is possibly even more jarring. The popularity of the series in Britain means that episodes are rerun on several channels, often in the daytime, and the daytime screenings are noticeably edited for gore and violence.

Much like the Animaniacs example above, the final word in the aforementioned verse is also slightly pitched up to make the fact that the theme has been shortened seem less obvious.

Edited for Syndication / int_8fda4aad	comment	Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood has live-action segments where children discuss the theme of the episode, such as showing kids how to make a birthday cake, how toilets at school work, and how baby animals are fed at zoos. Netflix prints of the show omit these segments. Oddly enough, unlike most PBS interstitials, these segments did show up on international Disney Junior feeds. For the actual show itself, the specials Meet The New Baby and Tiger Family Trip each have two versions: the original Three Shorts cut with the titular episode of each special and the two eleven-minute episodes that are a part of the special's plot, and a two-part cut with the main story and the eleven-minute episodes that support the plot being two separate episodes. Amazon offers both versions of Meet The New Baby note Strangely enough, the hour-long version is retitled Big Brother Daniel on the service to match up with the DVD release of the special, which includes an additional episode while they have the first version of Tiger Family Trip, for instance. While the hour-long version of "The Baby Is Here" has rarely been aired, the way Tiger Family Trip airs on PBS stations tends to depend on the scheduling of the local station airing the episode. note There are three ways that this happens: The first is to air the the hour-long version in one day. The second is to air the two-part version over two days, with the second slot for Daniel showing a completely different episode. The third, and rarest variant of this, is one episode of the two-parter airing without the other part being scheduled in the week ahead.

Edited for Syndication / int_9888f901	comment	Daria's run on The N suffered from this, removing any and all scenes of cursing, sex references, or darkly humorous content — and episodes that couldn't be cut without turning the episode into a lopped, cropped, and chopped mess were simply left unaired (i.e., "My Night At Daria's", where everyone thinks Daria and Tom slept together after they both fell asleep while studying in Daria's room). One episode, "The F Word", was even renamed "Fail". The three worst parts were that the cursing was cut on a random basis (one character might say "damn" in one scene and then cut in the next scene or even later in the same scene), some cuts ended up causing plot holes, and that The N would air Degrassi, which has a content level higher than Daria (Daria is TV-PG with Degrassi at TV-14) uncut. Reasons are unknown, but it's speculated that it only happened to Daria because it's a cartoon and networks don't treat animated shows as fairly as live-action shows — at least in America. Reruns on Logo replace the original music with soundalikes like the DVD release. The N's repeats (2002-2006) kept the music due to the music rights being different for both the broadcast and retail releases of the show. By the time Logo got the show (2010), all of the rights had lapsed and cut out the ending credits, instead opting to run them over the last minute of the episode, which seems to to be the norm for most Viacom owned networks as of recently. However, all of the content The N had cut was retained. The home video version of Is It College Yet? removes several lines and an entire scene from the original MTV broadcast.

Edited for Syndication / int_9e5f03e3	comment	FOX sought to test the waters in the late 90s with a thirty minute re-edit of Ally McBeal for a quick cash-in for syndication at the height of the show's popularity. Effectively they purged the first two seasons of all courtroom related scenes/drama material in order to present it as a comedy show, which created episodes that had huge plot holes, such as the elimination of Lucy Liu's character's entire introduction episode and having her just randomly showing up in the cast without an introduction. Incidentally this half-hour version never saw syndication.

Edited for Syndication / int_a183d57f	comment	When Futurama moved to Comedy Central, many of the earlier episodes had scenes cut, or moved around, presumably to make room for more advertisements. Most notably, the four post-season-four movies were cut into four episode-length segments each (also cutting out scenes in the process), creating a fifth "season" of sixteen episodes for Comedy Central to broadcast, which is the version of the movies available on Hulu. Occasionally this cuts out plot-important elements (for example: "Less Than Hero" cuts down the scene of Bender joining the team and giving Fry and Leela their outfits and the scene of Leela warning Fry not to give away their secret identities in case their loved ones get hurt, the latter of which sets up the main conflict of the episode).

One episode skips the last question of the show entirely but strangely doesn't skip the pre-question status mention.

Aside from cutting various scenes for time, all references to God were removed. Parental complaints led to such references being reinstated in the second and third seasons. A particularly egregious example from this version of VeggieTales occurs in the episode The Toy That Saved Christmas. They cut to the ending straight after Mr. Nezzer's Heelâ€“Face Turn, completely leaving out the entire climax.

Edited for Syndication / int_abfcff6a	comment	Rocky and Bullwinkle has had a variety of edits over the years. There were two primary syndication packages, the 15-minute "Rocky and His Friends" and the more common "Bullwinkle Show", the later of which, ironically, only includes Rocky and Bullwinkle segments from the last season that was titled The Bullwinkle Show, but all of the segments that originated on Rocky and His Friends. Cut from syndication as well as the VHS releases are the Bullwinkle puppet sequences (some were included on DVD as bonus material as opposed to part of the main program) and the commercial intros (which were included on the DVDs). In the original broadcasts, the show's structure was: Rocky and Bullwinkle, Fractured Fairy Tales/Aesop and Son, Bullwinkle's Corner/Mr. Know-It-Al/Bullwinkle Fan Club, Peabody's Improbable History/Dudley Do-Right, and Rocky and Bullwinkle. The Bullwinkle Show syndication package follows this format a little, but also includes either Bullwinkle's Corner, Mr. Know-It-All, or the Fan Club at the end, before the credits. Last season reruns actually include three Rocky and Bullwinkle segments and only one non-Bullwinkle supporting feature (though all four parts of the last storyarc, Moosylvania Saved, are shown in the same half hour). Additionally, installments of the various supporting segments are often not the same as originally paired together on television, with them usually being shown out of order (Mr. Know-It-All and Fan Club segments were added in season three, but this syndication package includes those segments in earlier episodes). Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network both aired reruns with their own special opening sequence (both of which reuse animation from the show). Nickelodeon's reruns featured episodes from both syndication packages but also showed three Rocky and Bullwinkle segments an episode, while Cartoon Network's broadcasts titled it "The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show", cut out the opening for the first "Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle" segment in the episode, but was otherwise the same as the "Bullwinkle Show" syndication package. The Buena Vista Home Video releases don't include the Rocky and His Friends or The Bullwinkle Show openings (instead starting with the opening used for "The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle" segments), and at least two chapters of each "Rocky and Bullwinkle" storyline are edited together into one, cutting the next episodes "titles" and the recap at the beginning of the next episode. In some cases entire chapters were omitted for time.

Edited for Syndication / int_aca7b22d	comment	American airings of The Amazing World of Gumball severely shorten the opening theme sequence to only showing the title card, eliminating the psychedelic visuals. This was done in order to fit more commercials (which is normal for modern broadcasting practices) to maximize profits. Several times, though, re-runs of the first season episode "The Quest" showed the full opening, but consequently eliminated the episode title card. Several other American reruns have had the full opening shown, usually due to a movie on Cartoon Network running short and needing as much filler as possible to pad out the timeslot.

Edited for Syndication / int_b0fc9724	comment	There are at least five syndicated versions of Saturday Night Live: The NBC Rerun: This is the version that airs during the weeks when SNL doesn't have any new episodes, usually between new episodes, during major holidays (Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter), or when the season ends or is on hiatus because of a writers' strike (as was the case for seasons six, ten, thirteen, and 33). It's 90 minutes long (just like a typical first-run episode), has the phrase, "Previously Recorded From An Earlier Broadcast" during the opening credits, and has dress rehearsal scenes (and, in some cases, sketches) to replace the live show footage (either for content reasons, to fix a technical error or missed cue, or to make a sketch/segment funnier after flopping badly on its first-run). This cut is the same one that airs on the West Coast. The 60-Minute Rerun: This is the version of SNL that aired on the cable channels Comedy Central and E! Entertainment. It's Exactly What It Says on the Tin: a rerun of an SNL episode cut down to roughly an hour (minus commercial breaks). This version includes note (what most fans consider to be) the best and funniest sketches from a given episode, but excludes the sketches that weren't as good and the second song by the musical guest is cut for time. Originally, Comedy Central aired Saturday Night Live episodes from the 1970s to the 1980s (barring the Jean Doumanian episodes, except for the Bill Murray/Delbert McClinton episode, and the last episode of season six, which had no host, but included guest appearances by Chevy Chase, Robin Williams, and Christopher Reeve, with a musical performance by Jr. Walker and the All-Stars), but after a while, those got phased out for the episodes from the mid-to-late 1980s to the 1990s (seasons 12 to 25), then those got phased out for episodes from the 1990s to the early 2000s (seasons 21 to 27). After Comedy Central picked up MADtv in place of SNL, E! aired the 1990s to the early 2000s episodes, but also added episodes from seasons 28, 29, and 30. NBC is now airing one-hour cuts of their SNL episodes at 10:00pm Saturday nights (provided a sports telecast doesn't run over) starting with episodes from season 38 (2012-2013 season). In the 2014-15 in honor of the show's 40th season, one episode per week from each season will air with an hour-cut version in this timeslot. The VH-1 and VH-1 Classic Reruns: Similar to the Comedy Central and E! reruns (in which the show is condensed to one-hour, leaving in only the best sketches, Weekend Update jokes, and one musical performance), only the episodes that air on VH-1 and VH-1 Classic are from seasons 24 to 38, with some "Best of" clip show episodes and the occasional behind-the-scenes special about the show's history. The "Best of" clip shows and the "behind-the-scenes" documentaries are the only 90-minute reruns of SNL ever aired on cable TV. The Nick At Nite Rerun: These were 30-minute reruns of SNL that aired in the early-to-mid 1980s, often with an hour-long syndicated cut of SCTV: Network 90. The episodes used were from the "Not Ready for Primetime"-era (fall of 1975 to spring of 1980), though episodes from seasons four and five were shown more often than seasons 1-3. The HA! Network Rerun note The HA! Network was an early cable channel which premiered in 1990 that was like Comedy Central in its early days — nothing but comedy movies, stand-up specials, and old reruns of sitcoms and sketch shows. It and HBO's Spirited Competitor The Comedy Channel merged in 1991 into Comedy Central when it became clear that there wasn't enough demand for two different comedy networks, and HA!'s format sprinkled with HBO's TCC programming basically formed the nucleus of their schedule for years.: A season seven SNL episode hosted by Susan St. James was the first program that aired when The HA! Network premiered. It (and other episodes) aired pretty much the same way as an NBC rerun (full 90-minute version with dress rehearsal footage added when necessary), but HA! Network only aired SNL episodes from when Dick Ebersol was executive producer (between 1981 and 1985), which was when the Susan St. James episode aired. The Comedy Network Rerunnote The Comedy Network is essentially Comedy Central in Canada (meaning whatever Comedy Central airs, Comedy Network airs). The only difference is Canada has much looser standards about profanity: This edited version of SNL is similar to the NBC rerun (airs for 90 minutes with little or no edits), only Comedy Network airs all of the season six episodes produced by Jean Doumanian in addition to airing the good (or So Okay, It's Average) episodes from both Lorne Michaels eras (fall 1975-spring 1980 and fall 1985-present) and Dick Ebersol's era (spring 1981-spring 1985). The Xfinity Streampix On-Demand/Hulu/Netflix Version: Like the Comedy Central/E!/VH-1 version, in that only the best material is shown and everything else (including musical performances, though seasons one to five had the musical performances intact, possibly because they were cleared for DVD release) is edited for copyright reasons, time, or just not being funny or memorable with viewers, only the episodes range from lasting 15 minutes to 58 minutes, depending on how much has been edited (the second time Kathleen Turner hosted SNL in the late 1980s has a streaming version so short, the only material in that episode is Kathleen Turner's monologue and Weekend Update with Dennis Miller). Also, the season 30 episode hosted by Kate Winslet with musical guest Eminem is not there.

It proved so successful that The BBC wanted to air the second season on its mainstream service BBC One. However, the creators were more extreme in their material for this season (Crosses the Line Twice in places). Before production, orders were received on high to record Bowdlerized versions of some scenes, on basis that "you can't say cock on BBC One". Results included the cutting from BBC One transmission of a scene involving a carer performing a particular act on an old woman ("it's on the DVD", apparently), and "What that boy (Daffyd) needs is a nice big cock up his arse" being rerecorded as "What that boy needs is a nice bit of bum".

Edited for Syndication / int_bc848d30	comment	SpongeBob SquarePants: The first airings of Season 1 in Italy removed the singing scenes from "Ripped Pants" and other episodes. They were kept in DVD releases and in later reruns. A thirty-minute version of the hour-long special SpongeBob's Birthday Blowout, which cuts most of the animated scenes, was aired in October of 2019. The official SpongeBob YouTube channel features several five-minute edits of some of the show's most popular episodes, mostly from the early seasons. Since 2014, all the episodes from Seasons 1-3 are sped up slightly, to make more time for commercials. This did not affect its Nicktoons airings, however. Later prints of the You Wish! version of "Shanghaied" cover up the phone number used for voting on the original airing with a disclaimer reading "Yikes matey! Original 800 number as aired has been retired to Davy Jones' locker!" and cuts out Patchy reading the number. This is because Nickelodeon let the number go after the original version of the special aired, and probably didn't like the idea of younger fans of the show seeing the original version of the episode and calling the number only to end up hearing something inappropriate (a lot of retired 1-800 numbers have ended up being used for things like adult entertainment lines once the original owners let go of them), hence why they covered up the number on screen and excised Patchy mentioning it.

Edited for Syndication / int_c4282b71	comment	My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: The Japanese broadcasting of the first two seasons (which are all Japan got at first until the Channel Hop from TV Tokyo to Dlife) had a longer intro and closing credits, plus a short segment hosted by Suzuko Mimori before the end credits, meaning that episodes had to have entire scenes and sequences cut out in order to fit these new additions. The initial Italian airing of Season 1 had every episode split into a two-parter to fit more commercials in, as Italian law forbids commercial breaks during cartoon episodes and each episode of the series is 22-minutes long. The original Croatian dub that airs on HRT 2, while otherwise not heavily edited, similarly has every episode split into two parts, possibly to accommodate the "Juhuhu!" block made for younger children that airs early in the morning. The newer dub by RTL Kockica - on the other hand - evades this due to commercials always taking place inbetween shows (not counting movies).

Edited for Syndication / int_c826a423	comment	Italian airings of Baby Looney Tunes for years kept everything as it is, but since 2017 they started removing the songs that are usually played between each episode, repacking every 10-minute short as a standalone episode with opening and closing themes in order to cram more advertising in between (again, this is another way to circumnavigate the law forbidding commercial breaks during cartoons). This was also how the series was first shown on Cartoonito in the United States when the American version of the block in September 2021, with five of its standard segments airing together to make a 75-minute broadcast of the series. However, on November 2, 2021, the block started airing the show in its original format so that it can run on the clock, and the series stayed that way until leaving Cartoonito the following April. Discovery Family, who got the broadcast rights to the series in May 2023 following the Warner Bros. Discovery merger, not only cuts out the music videos, but also presents the series with PAL speed and audio in order to increase the show's commercial break length. This thankfully doesn't affect Boomerang's concurrent airings of the series, however.

Edited for Syndication / int_ca5d97f1	comment	When Monty Python's Flying Circus was aired on ABC in 1975, it was heavily condensed, rearranged and edited all to hell for content, completely destroying the sketches — leading to a situation where the group had to go to court to prove their own material wasn't funny when treated thus and get it taken off the air. Apparently the trial was hilarious. In The Pythons Autobiography, Michael Palin describes trying to tell the judge about a sketch set in a courtroom where the judge keeps interrupting the prosecutor to ask questions about the witness's gaiters, and having the American judge keep interrupting to ask what gaiters are. A side effect of this dispute was that the Pythons obtained the copyright to their own series, something that has never happened with any other BBC show. The DVD releases are not on BBC Video or its partner comany 2\|Entertain, and the packaging doesn't credit the BBC at all. The DVDs A&E distributed in America have some sketches missing. For example, the episode "How Not To Be Seen" had one of its cartoon segments cut short to remove scenes of Jesus crucified to a telephone pole. The episode with "A Book At Bedtime" originally opened with a choreographed party political broadcast. Time-Life, the original distributors, accidentally erased this opening so upon changing distributors it now opens with a quick captioning gag. The first A&E DVD release omits the ending, the preview of upcoming BBC comedies. The notorious "cannibal undertaker" sketch was apparently cut from the BBC master tape. The version appearing on PAL DVDs appears to be a reverse-standards-convertednote A piece of software developed by the Doctor Who Restoration Team for remastering episodes where the only surviving colour source was a videotape that had been converted from PAL to NTSC using analogue equipment. The program analyses the analogue-converted signal and effectively reverse-engineers the conversion, resulting in far better picture quality than a straight reconversion NTSC version. In Terry Gilliam's "Black Spot" animation the word "cancer" was redubbed by a completely different voice saying "gangrene". On Gilliam's disc on the Monty Python's Personal Best DVD box set, the word "cancer" has been reinstated from the soundtrack of the film And Now For Something Completely Different.

Edited for Syndication / int_d4efb984	comment	The Golden Girls has suffered from this trope a lot. It's often Adored by the Network wherever it airs, and has appeared on no less than three different channels. Its original home in syndication was Lifetime, which ran it constantly; these episodes were largely intact, with few edits. In the New Aughts and Tens, it began airing on Logo (a nod to the show's LGBT Fanbase) with more cuts, but never to the point of being noticeable. The worst offender, though, is Hallmark Channel, which edits out not just a few jokes, but entire plot points and resolutions, leaving most episodes feeling half-complete. To give just one example: in "'Twas the Nightmare Before Christmas", the girls miss spending Christmas with their families, but a long sequence in a diner helps them realize that they're with loved ones—each other—after all. The Hallmark version cuts out almost the entirety of that sequence, making the "revelation" seem rushed and tacked on.

Edited for Syndication / int_d9c602eb	comment	The version of South Park that aired in over-the-air syndication and on WGN America is rated TV-14. You might ask, "How do you tone down a series like South Park to TV-14 levels?" Simple: extensive bleeping of curse words, trimming scenes for offensive dialogue that can't be bleeped, and in scenes vital to the plot, replacing them with black screens with humorous short descriptions of the offensive scene (e.g., "Red Hot Catholic Love"'s Running Gag of people defecating from their mouths). Furthermore, due to Parker and Stone having final say over the "censored" cuts of their episodes, certain episodes (such as "It Hits the Fan") were withheld from the syndication package. Ironically though, certain other episodes with questionable content have been heavily featured in syndication, including: "Jared Has Aides" (formerly banned from Comedy Central for mocking AIDS, as well as Butters getting physically abused by his parents for making a crank call) and the seldom-broadcasted "Death" (formerly banned by Comedy Central for the subplot about Stan's grandfather badgering Stan to assist him with suicide, as well as the gang talking about huffing gasoline, smoking crack, and watching porn).

Most of the cuts are just nips and tucks to long bits of dialogue, but there's a particularly egregious one in Episode 13, not only losing the scene where Motti conspires with Tarkin to overthrow the Emperor, but violating the show's format whereby major scene transitions are always accompanied by music. Second when NPR decided to lengthen the closing credits. The cut material includes a rather touching scene in Episode 2, where which Leia tells her father about a pleasant stroll she took on Alderaan.

Edited for Syndication / int_f6c05e8e	comment	Friends is edited when it is aired on Nick at Nite to fit in more commercials, which often results in several jokes missing from many episodes. Additionally, the more risque jokes are often edited out as well.

Edited for Syndication / int_f7355f1e	comment	An episode of Remington Steele actually used this practice as a major plot point: The killer du jour had used a co-worker as an alibi, noting that the two had watched a classic TV show together at the time of the murder (unbeknownst to the co-worker, the culprit had used a VCR and reset the clocks; but it turned out that due to syndication, the scene the two had watched together had been cut.

Edited for Syndication / int_f7c1b2d3	comment	The original airing of the Only Fools and Horses episode "Thicker Than Water" included a brief exchange where Del reminds Rodney that Reg was not aware if Grandad was alive or dead in the eighteen years he'd been gone, and Rodney comments that they never seem to know either. Following Lennard Pearce's death less than a year later, this exchange was removed from the episode and was not restored for any subsequent repeat airings or home media releases.

Edited for Syndication / int_f7d8fd70	comment	Like many BBC shows, The Goon Show was cut for overseas transcription versions, losing a good deal of politically-incorrect material gags in particular. For many years these were the only versions of most episodes that were available for broadcast, but subsequent CD releases have restored almost all of the cut material from various sources.

Edited for Syndication / int_fc5cca12	comment	Wishbone: When some PBS stations started airing reruns of the series in the mid-to-late 2000s, some of the "Tail End" segments were either shortened or cut completely, and the credits music changed from an instrumental rearrangement of the theme song in a higher key, to a regular instrumental of the theme song.

Edited for Syndication / int_fe30da6	comment	WKRP in Cincinnati is notorious for being heavily edited in syndication; the original series largely used music which was popular during the specific years (late 1970s) in which the series was made, but these hit songs were only licensed for use in the television series over a short time-frame and then removed. The Season 1 DVDs, to fans' dismay, had more music edited out. Which resulted in future DVD releases being abandoned until Shout! Factory picked up the complete series with a majority of the original songs restored.
