This is the entire show, 24+ minutes, not just the out take..........................ENJOY!..............
What bothers me is that apparently if you watch the episodes now (via DVD or on a nostalgia channel), chances are that the small bits of popular rock songs of the time that played on the original cuts of the episodes are now covered up by musical noise as copyright lawyers apparently demanded this. I am a bit sensitive about this as it is nice to watch TV shows and movies done in their originally produced formats and not chopped up for timing and ad space issues or even censored (for PC or the aforementioned reasons).
The DJ booth scene with Johnny had Pink Floyd in the background........................
I heard the music mafia wanted too big a royalty/fee for use of the clips, at least on tv series DVDs.
Perhaps producers started taking future DVD opportunities into account when creating shows/epis since then.
Watched the old ‘F-Troop’ series a few years back on some cable channel.
The opening theme song has been deleted and replaced with and instrumental version, because the term ‘redskins’ is in it.................
Why don’t they make shows this good anymore???
Everything Hollywood does nowadays is PC and political propaganda oriented................
I’m on the side of Bailey.
People have low standards.
Bummer about F Troop.
At least OTR Fort Laramie shows no one cares to purge, yet.
No doubt snowflakes will want OTR gone some day.
Watch this many Thanksgivings. Very funny!
They won’t show Death Valley Days because Ronald Reagan is in it................
I’d invite both of them over. We could discuss it all over dinner.
One classic instance (even though it was not related to censorship or legal issues) was the Star Trek episode “The Cage”(the one with Captain Pike and rejected because it was too cerebral and too good for TV). Gene Roddenberry thought he had at least two original full colour and original sound and dialogue prints of that episode and as it turned out the one he gave to have chopped up and glued into the TOS two parter “The Menagerie” was the only one he actually had (though he had a black and white rough cut he showed at conventions).
And it was not until the mid to late 1980s that a colour negative of “The Cage” was discovered in Paramount Pictures’ archives (along with the master tapes of Alexander Courage’s original soundtrack music), so we could see original colour footage of scenes deleted to make room for “The Menagerie” scenes. One main thing missing was original dialogue sound from Malachi Throne playing the original voice of the Talosian Keeper, as Malachi’s voice was removed because of his playing Commodore Menendez in “The Menagerie” and Vic Perrin’s was used (with the voice pitch altered) in the version(s) we are familiar with today. And it would have been nice for that to have been restored in recent years as Malachi only passed away a few years ago and maybe his voice could have been added back to a more original recut of that episode.
Based on a true story (happened at a station in Denver in the 1960’s!)
The “Arthur Carlson” station manager who was responsible later ended up in Pittsburgh. I have a friend who worked for him.
Classic... thanks for sharing link...
Wow! Thanks for that tidbit of trivia. Now I can impress my Trekky friends with somee thing they may not know!............
Yay! One of my faves!
It’s been years since comedy was funny.

“Redskins” and “pale face” still in this one.
A classic episode from a great sitcom.
