This is going to be hacked to pieces by the way.

It's just taking me to the main reddit.

I did some reading though and I'm (still) confused; why is the series suddenly being edited and censored?

It's the cast's collective choice. They're censoring themselves. They also claim they'd made this decision prior to Trevor's death.

Interesting. Why?

"-The big one: is it censored?

There’s no bleeps no blurs on the show itself. Something did have to be blurred in the bonus material, but that literally can from Shout factories legal department. Actually though, now that I think of it I wouldn’t be surprised if there is still some bleeps in season 5.

-what about omitted sketches?

As we said before, we aired on the side of caution with the streaming sketches and with the DVD we feel more freedom to have it be more complete. That being said, there’s still a few sketches we still felt were better left off.

-How could you do that if Trevor didn’t have a say?

This is an extension of a conversation that had been on going from before he died.

-Oh, I’m sorry for trying to use your dead friend against you like that.

Thanks for saying that, most people haven’t been empathetic enough to notice how out of line a statement like that can be.

-Which Sketches?

I don’t want to get into it. I think there’s 3 or 4 (out of hundreds) It’s not any big ones like Whale Tail, Scotty or Grapist. The problem is if I do get specific, it becomes all about the argument of how what we’re doing is stupid because X, Y, or Z. Or people do that thing where they compare the ones left on with the ones left off, which doesn’t make sense to me because it’s like “are you saying we should have left off more.” It’s bad take.

-When’s the Blu-Ray coming out?

Shout had no plans to put one out. This is it.

-Why didn’t you choose to do a blu-ray then?

It wasn’t our choice, it was Shouts. And their choice wasn’t between blu-ray or DVD, it was between dvd or nothing.

-Why?

Blu-rays are expensive to make.

-Why?

I’m not a Blu-ray scientist. Bottom line is this is what we are making and to get it to be the whole series and get a physical release at all this is how we had to do it. Knowing that we can’t make everyone happy I still tried really hard to accrue as much material for this as possible."


UPDATE 10/2: Apparently the Banned Sketches will be sketches that IFC refused to air:

Heads up: The first pressing of this is missing sketches that were not intended to be omitted. They're currently planning on fixing later pressings and getting fixed discs out to people who bought the first press: https://www.reddit.com/r/WKUK/commen...about_the_dvd/

EDIT: double-post

[Nailwraps]

Thanks for the head's up on that! Makes me more confident now that at least for 95% of the series will be uncut for DVD.

But as soon as someone gets the replacement discs, we need a list of what was officially omitted. It's still a shame 3-4 of the sketches were removed because of changing times. Even if they were there, you think anyone would care, especially when it's a show targeted to adults?

This is streaming on Prime, with warnings, but I dont know if its missing anything

Update on the missing sketches: For people who bought the original pressing, they are going to send out a bonus disc with the missing sketches, plus a cut of the complete Civil War on Drugs series of sketches. You should be getting a replacement disc automatically if you ordered through the Shout website and if you ordered from elsewhere you should be able to get the replacement disc through this form: https://shoutfactory.com/pages/wkuk-make-good-disc-form

Future prints of the set will have fixed discs with the unintentionally missing sketches back in. (There will still be ~5 sketches that will intentionally be omitted).

It looks like Shout has sold through all the misprinted copies and have a fixed version up on their store (as "The Completer Edition").
