Something you all are missing - it's possible that the cut footage no longer even exists. John K. said as much in his response. These may be the most complete versions of these episodes possible.

I'm as surprised as you are that there are still some edits in the cartoons. Blame Nickelodeon years ago! Don't blame the producers of the DVD.
We put back every scene that I was aware was missing. Nick must have cut more scenes out long after I stopped watching the show.

Maybe I will consult with you to restore the episodes you found that still has cuts and we'll put the missing scenes on a website for you, or run them ouncut on Spkie.
If every show is not completely intact it's because long ago Nick misplaced or lost the originals, but I restored the ones I knew had cuts, ok?

To deliberately market something with this shows history of being cut as uncut and not taking the steps to honor that and and being completely oblivious to what they even might be trying to restore and then giving conflicting reasons behind it seems odd to me.

I was pissed, there's this video store by my house that releases everything the weekend before it comes out for close to the sales price. But, they hadn't gotten R&S yet.
DAMN!
DAMN!

What do you expect from a website that spells its own TV show Fraser, "Frasier"?

Any word on availability of these sets in stores? The bonus disc at Best Buy? They had maybe 20 to 30 sets at the Best Buy I just went to, with maybe half of those containing the bonus disc. I'm wondering if they are going to go fast like the Friday the 13th boxes.

Can someone give more information about the bonus disc. I've heard it described as a 'preview' of Season 3. Running time? Does it have complete episodes? Which ones?

I picked it up and came to work, so I won't know 'til later, but it says on the box that it contains two episodes from season 3, which my guess is, it will run just under 30 minutes.

ok, i hate to say it, but i'm with the naysayers on this one. R&S fans have long suffered for this show, and this "uncut" set being cut is just the latest example.
i also think John K.'s response smacks of BS. in particular, he's discussed the whistling old man in past interviews. i remember him specifically citing this scene as an example of how cuts could actually make the material creepier. if i remember, the old man whistles some Grieg tune.
i'm an R&S fan from the very start, but i've had about enough of waiting for John K. to deliver. i was far too excited by the news of the Spike show, and look how that turned out. he simply ramped up the adult content so high that airing yet again came to a halt. and the ones that did air? that Bakshi two-parter is *terrible* IMO. only Ren Seeks Help has any consistency, and that one is more horror than comedy.
APC led me to one conclusion: Nickelodeon may have actually had a legitimate beef with John K. back in the day. if the material he was delivering was anywhere near APC, then how could anyone have expected Nick to air it?? Film Threat and other sources made it out to be an unfair battle against the playful spirit of a master animator, but i think there was much more to the story.
i'll never forget eps like Stimpy's Invention, but i simply won't follow John K. to the ends of the earth. i've been burned too many times by his distorted take on his battle vs. corporate TV.

As I go through this set, I have the biggest, stupidest, shit-eating grin on my face.
These are so much fun, and to miss out on the whole thing just because of a couple minutes that are likely gone forever, seems rather foolish to me.
Just reflect on this: I hardly even notice the cuts, what I notice A LOT more is the tons of re-inserted footage.
You guys are looking at this as a glass 1% empty, instead of 99% full.
You've been warned. Your souls are at stake!
