I was mainly implying most CBS sets in general. It seems that in those in cases, they don't even try, and I hate it when apologists (not gonna say who they are), try to justify their actions.

If they go the extra mile, what stopped them here? I think it's safe to say most people would have taken fewer bonus items if that could have left a bigger budget for making sure NOTHING was cut. Sure strikes me as funny how an episode can appear uncut on a public domain set yet the official company can't do the same.

And yes, we know how bad CBS has been in cases where they truly made no effort or didn't care like "The Odd Couple" in particular, which I wish had generated as much of an uproar as "The Fugitive" did.

I'm sure what stopped them was the CBS legal department. Sometimes it's not a question of money, but of tangled rights or other messy legal issues. And a lot of the bonus extras were were done despite the budget limitations because the guys putting this together just wanted to do it right, whether the budget permitted it or not.
