Movies Edited for Television

My feeling is simple... If you can't air it without cutting it, don't air it. This isn't like it was when we all only had the "Big Three".

The funny thing is, my wife and I are big Goodfellas fans, so whenever it's on TV she puts it on...which annoys me, I tell her we have the freakin' DVD and can watch it whenever we want and it's complete with no editing. But she says it's different when its on TV ... Sure it is, we've been quoting lines from the movies for 20 years to each other so we know it by heart.

I think I read the edited TV version of Goodfellas was personally made by Scorsese himself.

I actually get a kick out of edited for TV versions of movies, especially the ones done in the 70's just as long as I have the unedited versions on hand.

Sometime check out Showgirls on something like VH1, where they computer generate bras for the girls in many of the scenes.

especially editing Blazing Saddles farts out and replacing them with burp sounds
