Because you've been watching too much ITV?

Re: Free TOS
Has anyone noticed that some scenes from the reruns have been deleted? For example in the TNG episode "Gambit" a deleted scene is where Koral poured the blood wine he was given by Data and Troi onto the briefing room floor. I guess the deletions are to allow more time for commercials. I'm sure there are more examples but this ones always comes to mind.Lt. Staplic wrote:I've seen all of TNG, DS9, VOY, and ENT.
TNG was on all the time on some sci-fi channel when I was a kid, so I've seen that one over and over.
DS9/VOY watched their seasons over the course of a couple summers. Spike had two episodes on every day mon.-fri. at like 4:00-5:00.
ENT was recently on the sci-fi channel in four hour blocks that me and my dad would watch after we ate.
TOS is the only one that I haven't seen all of, and I don't think I probably will...I just can't get into them when I see them, and that isn't very often, their not on any more, and my Internet is to slow to load vids.

Re: Free TOS
I haven't though I've never seen an orrigional episode.
In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

Re: Free TOS
I have one question. How long has TOS been locked up for?
They say that in the Army,
the women are mighty fine.
They look like Phyllis Diller,
and walk like Frankenstein.

Re: Free TOS
In Voyager's pilot, I noticed a couple of sceens deleated from the re-runs that were in the original release. IIRC, that's why Voyager had 38 and not 40 torps, because Paris advised Janeway "We're holding our own Captain." and showed a few seconds of the battle, and IN said battle, Voyager let loose two torps as well as phaser volleys.

Re: Free TOS
You mean they were actually keeping track of torpedoes fired?

Re: Free TOS
Well this is lovely. Time to catch up on missed episodes! Plus, I can convert them to iPod =)
Don't you hear my call, though you're many years away, don't you hear me calling you?

Shocking, I know. I wonder if this was during the brief period Ron D Moore was with the show.You mean they were actually keeping track of torpedoes fired?
