Where does to banned episode fit into the series cronology? Was it part of season one/two, or did it come later?

Not sure... since it was never aired it is hard to figure out where it is supposed to go... It kinda stood on it's own.. I don't think Peter is a Fisherman yet... does that help?

yea... I kinda have the feeling that they are doing that with the second set (R1) also.
Because it never aired it can go at the end of the set, since they go by broadcast order most of the time.

I have an early copy of the R1 set, and I think too much weight is being put on the omission of an Osama gag, as well as the Weinstein episode.

They make it sound like it's a Madacy release.

I was hoping the problem had to do with the NTSC-to-PAL conversion and that the region 1 would be better, but Wayne says it's just as bad.

On the fence here... The review over at HTF mentions that these jaggies, "from someone close to FG", are a part of the network masters and there's nothing that can be done. On the other hand, Josh and the folks at DVDFile are telling us that the transfers are horrible... The folks at IGN mentioned that there are jaggies o' plenty and the DVDTalk review also mentions the jaggies but says they are merely "a problem". Sigh... I was REALLY looking froward to this set but now, I don't know... I may just cancel my pre-order. $30 isn't much in the grand scheme of things, but still, I don't really want to shell out for a set full of video issues... Even if the show is THAT good, and it is... I'm torn here...

you guys are putting WAY too much bearing on the osama bit (its like 10 seconds and if you really need to see it you can download it) and the banned episode (of which you can also download) there are 28 other hilarious episodes on this dvd and its worth every single penny.
