It's why they should just do a DVD release instead. The show has never gotten a complete uncut DVD release in the united states before.

The problem is that the cuts are really minor and there are lots of DVD sets available. Kino's product would probably be more expensive and only appeal to a very small number of people who absolutely have to see the boobs. I love the show, but I wouldn't cough up probably more than $100 to get an additional 27 seconds of video.

It's not just nudity that was cut. A few episodes also had violent content and profanity removed. And the Comet airings are even more censored than the Canadian DVDs were.


Also i'm shocked at how incompetent the distribution on streaming is. Until recently you could stream and buy episodes on Amazon. Now they have gotten rid of almost all the episodes on Prime and the only place where you can stream them is on Roku. Also a planned revival was cancelled during the development stage so i'm guessing Bezos despises the show and wants nothing to do with it after Amazon bought MGM.
