The Muppet Show on DVD

[Jarleboy]

I hope we can one day get these shows on DVD or Blu-ray. Not holding my breath, though.

Tomorrow's the big day. It will be interesting to see what we actually end up getting.

I always loved that Madeline Kahn episode. It’s sad how underrated she’s become.

She died way too young.

Surprisingly, the Brooke Shields episode didn't make the cut but that was thankfully released on DVD.

It's disappointing to see things cut and missing. I suppose we should have expected some of this.
Regarding seasons 1-3, as these were released on DVD, is there a comparison lists anywhere as to which episodes were cut on disc, but are complete on D+? I have the uk releases of the first two seasons, and I expect they're the same as the American DVDs.
I'm wondering if the Chris Langham one is absent on account of his conviction. It would seem to be the most likely reason.
Is the Spike Milligan episode included in the UK Season 3 dvd set? What about the other cuts, are the episodes complete on the dvds?

Entertainment Weekly article on the cuts and missing episodes:

While more than 100 of the beloved series' 120 episodes are now streaming in full on Disney+, eagle-eyed viewers may have noticed some edits and omissions when the show debuted on the streaming service Friday. Most notably, two episodes from season 5 — featuring guest stars Brooke Shields and Chris Langham — are entirely absent from Disney+. (The first season's episode featuring Kaye Ballard was also missing when the series debuted on Friday, but has been restored; a Disney+ representative said its omission was simply a mistake.)
