Re: OT: The butchering of Bargaining Pt 1 on Aust TV

["russianknife" <russianknife@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hey all.

So I guess this is going to be an intro post as well as a very OT 
reply, I never really got around to introducing myself, I've only 
been on the list for about a week or so.

Anyway, as a fellow Aussie, I managed to get pretty damn peeved at 
channel seven as well. I've seen the UPN ep, and you're right, they 
did some serious butchering.

I didn't notice the drug references cut, but it was about 11 o'clock 
at night, and how am I meant to be alert then (and what's with the 
10:30 timeslot anyway? I know they've used it for a while, but it 
sucks!). As for the rest... I haven't seen any other UPN cuts, if 
they've done the same thing in every other ep, then I'm feeling kind 
of gipped. 

If you find anything out by ringing channel 7, let us know will you?

*Imagining beating channel 7 over the head with a big stick*

Sorry about the rant,

Pedder.
