      @@bettyglitter4760 well, these scenes aren’t included on the DVD set as it was removed to avoid any lawsuits from microwave companies, even though there was a time where people believed that microwaves would be dangerous to anyone with a pacemaker, and perhaps there were some people with pacemakers who had problems as a result of using a microwave, which is where all that dialogue came from. Though by the time this episode came out, people with pacemakers had no problems using microwaves. It’s a shame that the episode isn’t complete on the DVD set. Especially since reruns of the show are edited quite a bit anymore, which is probably worse than the cut of the episode as is.

    • @zrobeast
      @zrobeast 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      It's not just Golden Girls, but a lot of shows that end up in syndication have a lot of small scenes removed to make room for more commercial time (or in this case, due to a lawsuit from microwave manufacturers due to a myth that has long since been disproven if other comments are correct). I've been re-watching some of my favorite Simpsons episodes on Disney+, and have seen jokes that I'm 95-100% sure I never saw before since most of my time watching the show was syndicated, and a number of them are pretty great (although there are a few that didn't hit me as much as I'd like).

  • @kitzi79
    @kitzi79 7 ปีที่แล้ว +269

    Actually, kids, the reason why this scene was cut is the same reason why every episode of the Golden Girls (and other older shows) aired on TV in more recent years is missing scenes: Greedy TV broadcasters. I can still distinctly recall how this show used to begin immediately following the intro music -- but NOWADAYS, the broadcasters have tacked on an extra 2-3 minutes of ads after the intro, before the show itself gets going... So that's 2-3 minutes of EVERY DAMN EPISODE getting cut, and it's often painful for me to watch because I actually REMEMBER the hilarious lines/scenes that are currently being removed or hacked to death. It's really a sin; this is just too brilliant a series to ever be defaced in such a callous, money-grubbing way.

      Yes, I've noticed this. Some of these time-saving "hack jobs" are so
      awful and awkward, too, completely not in line with the fluidity of the show.
      Even viewers who haven't seen the missing parts should be able to tell when
      cuts have been done, at least sometimes. Like when one of the Girls is
      shown seated in the kitchen eating, drinking or talking with someone, and the very next scene suddenly has them about to sit in a chair on the lanai/patio, mid-speech with another character. It's a damn shame, alright!

      Actually the reason this scene was cut is because the microwave production industry threatened to sue Buena Vista if they continued to show this scene because according to them and the settlement between the two groups there is no evidence that microwaves disrupt pacemakers. The microwave industry felt this could and would hurt sales and threatened to sue. To avoid a financial settlement, Buena Vista agreed to remove the scene from reruns and home copies (DVDs, Hulu, and Amazon)

    I remember the (now cut) dialogue about the microwave. They may have gotten a lot of flack at the time (or later due to technological advances or better understanding after 30 years) for the joke since microwave ovens, when used normally, do not interfere with pacemakers. It's still nice to see all of the jokes in proper context. :)

      DarkWillUser that's true. But a lot of DVDs use the syndicated episodes instead of the full episodes that were originally aired. I've bought DVDs that were like that; instead of the episode being 24-25 minutes long (as they were in the original tv broadcast) I found some DVDs had the syndicated 22-minute episode) I protested because I don't like being ripped off. The video above with the missing scene is because TV stations will cut scenes when shows go into daily syndication to add more commercial time. And a lot of times, the companies that make DVDs will use the syndicated episodes - because they think everybody is too stupid to notice

    In addition to this deleted scene, I am aware of two more: In the season five episode about the president visiting, the DVD episode is missing a line from the security official wherein he referenced the house having four senior citizens and Blanche, in an attempt to feel younger, corrects him and says, “Three senior citizens.” The man reacts by saying something like, “Yeah, right.” In addition, season four has a missing scene. In the very last episode of season four when they contemplate selling the house and moving out, they cut a scene out right after Blanche receives a phone call from the prospective Asian buyer at the end of the episode. In the original airing, Dorothy yells at Sophia to come into the living room while Blanche takes the phone call, and Sophia responds by saying words to the effect of, “Wouldn’t it be easier to put a dog collar on me?” I remember seeing that scene years ago during a rerun on TV, but it’s missing from my season four DVD set.

      I also recall a scene in that episode where Dorothy walks out into the living room in her wedding dress that same episode, but it was cut out. I hadn't even known that scene existed. It sucks how so many scenes and lines are still cut out from this gem of a series.

(in german it was transladet in "Dann mach doch in der Mikrowelle Popcorn"). It didnt made any sense so I always thought it is one of Sophias weird jokes :-) Thanks for sharing this with us, Attmay!

      Some people claim it was because that's not true, but apparently, it used to be true. I've seen prepackaged sandwiches in grocery stores in metal containers with warnings that say "safe to use in any microwave after 1980." It's plausible the girls believed it and that that microwave is a pre-1980 model, considering how the kitchen's color scheme feels like a holdover from the 1970s. Does anyone even know what brand of microwave it was? The low resolution of SD tape obscures any identifying marks.
      But of course, that still doesn't explain how a first season *Simpsons* episode could get away with building a whole episode's plotline (Krusty Gets Busted) around that same assumption when GG had to be cut. And also put that in the context of other Disney cuts over the years. Coco (RIP Charles Levin) was supposed to have more scenes in the pilot, but they got cut and who knows if they can ever be retrieved at all.

    As a hardcore "Golden Girls" fan, I can't thank you enough! This is simply miraculous. Where did you get the missing footage from?? Better yet, how the hell did you even know that a random 30 seconds were cut to begin with?! It suddenly makes sense why Sophia's "Who's for popcorn?" line got such an uproarious reaction from the audience! Do you know of any other edits made to the episodes on DVD? Unfortunately, as I was only 4 when the show went into syndication, I've only seen whatever prints are shown in reruns and on the DVDs. "Beep Beep/Tom Tom" is indeed the shortest episode on the season 5 set, but "The Mangiacavallo Curse" is a close second, running only 22:50. Could that one be edited as well?

    Usually scenes are cut from the DVD releases because of rights. In this case, they might have had to pay Goodwill or Cheez-Whiz royalties, or got permission, to publish just saying the name. It was a different world in the 80s, and on TV. Broadcasts weren't considered "published", just aired. Huge difference when it came to things like rights and royalties.
    On a side note, does anyone remember the episode where Dorothy says to Rose "KINDA pregnant? That's like being kinda Spanish!" Rose replies "Emilio Estevez is kinda Spanish". Rose line about Emilio isn't on DVD, nor is it on the reruns airing today. What's up with that?

Back when they first cut out the scene there was still that "scare" and uncertainty about them as they were still rather new and not everyone had one yet. So sadly they cut it. The entire scene was setting up the joke for Sophia's line which now is just random.

    Actually what Blanche was talking about is completely common. The doctors often stop your heart to operate on a section that needs to be operated on. And oftentimes when that happens you Astral project to a different plane of consciousness. Of course for the pacemaker the heart should remain beating. It's possible that they may have hit a complication and had to temporarily stop the heart which caused her to have that experience. Also, the microwave is correct. It is too dangerous to use the machine if someone in the house has a pacemaker. And good luck with the TSA.
