Just out of curiosity what are the sensitive issues that caused the DVD to be edited?

I don't actually know what was censored (I never saw it that way) so I'm doing a bit of guessing, but the show would be considered very non-PC these days. For one it was violent -- lots of bad guys get killed. And two, it wasn't "racially sensitive" by today's standards. Bad guys were almost always non-white, and our heroes pick off brown-skinned baddies by the score. Hadji was one of our heroes, but other than him. life was pretty cheap if you weren't part of the Quest family group!

Haven't seen it in years -- but I LOVED it growing up in the 60's and early 70's. It was my absolute favorite. Love to see it again in all it's non-PC glory.
