I've been rewatching Buffy these past few months(with my mom sweatdrop ) and it was goin good, a lot of comercials but I tape it anyway. I thought that they might have skipped an episode(the one with the Cumash tribe warrior), but one or two hadn't gotten taped so I thought maybe I was just on crack. Then tonight we watch my very favorite Buffy episode-that's right kiddies, Once more with feeling. This being an episode I have seen many many times I know every line by heart, and I was squirming in my seat because I'd been wanting my mom to watch it so badly. We get to the second song(I've got a theory) and Anya's part about bunnies, big explosion, then come back to "This is just too creepy..." ect, like at the end of the song. I imediatly jump up and yell at the tv "Oh my god they cut it! How could they do that?!"...The episode goes on and I notice several other little changes, nothing super important, but nothing that needed to be cut for content. They did however cut out the line about Xander not having to be Sweet's queen gonk Anyway I've come to realize, if the cut this episode, they must be cutting all the episodes! Oh I'm eaten up with twitchy anger stressed Does FX cut up stuff often to sell more comercial time? Grar, I knew TNT did it, but not to tv shows scream Anyway I'm sure I had a point here...Oh yeah! Don't watch Buffy on FX if you can help it, also please mail them a dead fish.

If you watch the proper tapes when starting the episode it states that it is the 'extended edition'!! Also I have noticed the same on British TV a lot of the time it is done because of the time it is being showed like unsurprisingly 'Samshed' is quite regurlarly cut short. But also one of the reason they cut episodes short is because of the slot time allowed for a episode like over here on 'Tabula Rasa' the bit where Anya rants about British language: ANYA: What capital? I never know what you're talking about. Loo, shag, brolly, what the hell is all that? In my opinion best part of the episode has been cut!!!
My advise is to watch the official tapes/DVD's & look out for them coz they normally are the funniest bit's!!!

odd thing is, they cut different parts of the Once More With Feeling episode whenever they show it...its bizarre...i have the dvd sets for all 7 seasons and i watch them on FX at work in the mornings so i have noticed they cut things here and there every now and then...this last showing of Once More With Feeling was cut up more than any other time ive seen it

Yea, I'm not surprised. Most TV networks cut some parts out of a show or a movie for commercials and such. Too bad for me, I have to watch Buffy on FX because I have a good handful of episodes I've haven't seen yet, and I'm trying to watch them all. So I won't know if I'm watching edited crap or not. gonk

I''ve only seen the episodes on FX so I wouldn''t know (I need to buy some of those DVDs!), but I know that FX skips one episode per week. They normally show two episodes starting at 1PM, but on Wednesdays they only show one episode. I don''t know why they skip one, though. This week I think they skipped Wrecked and went right from Tabula Rasa to Gone.

Dawn: I gave birth to a pterodactyl. Anya: My god! did it sing? I was incredibly dissapointed when I heard the absence of that line. One of the funniest in both series, honestly. Download Bearshare, the free version. I've gotten Chosen and Once More with Feelings and I'm quite sure they have most episodes downloadable in MPEG form, including the 'previously on Buffy the Vampire Slayer' clips and it isn't cut at all.

well, heres a dead-obvious clue that they cut episodes, the began the summer with season seven (at least when I got back from the dorms), and they're already back to season six in just over two months... two eps a day, five days a week, 10 eps a week, average 25 eps a season, they should only be on season four, maybe early five...
