It wasn't a W/T scene per se, but it was an important scene to Willow's 
future. In 'Dopplegangland', after Willow's whispered aside to Buffy, "And I 
think I'm kinda gay," FX cut the next two lines;

Buffy: Just remember, a vampire's personality has nothing to do with who they 
were before.
Angel: Actually(Buffy gives him a withering stare)...That's a good point.

They also cut Xander's reaction to Giles' observation that 'Something strange 
is going on"; "Can you believe the Council let this guy go?"

Yeah, I'm not happy with these cuts. FX seems to think it's more important to 
sell toilet paper or remind us when Ally McBeal is on than to maintain the 
integrity of their shows. A sad state of affairs.
