I have not seen this mentioned so I thought I would post it for those who are interested in this popular 80s sitcom.
Mill Creek Entertainment will be re-releasing The Cosby Show on DVD starting next year. S1 and S2 will be released on January 21. However, it appears that season 1 will contain edited episodes and not the original uncut prints. actual run time for S1 with the uncut episodes is 575mins., Mill Creek's release is listed at 546mins.
I am disappointed and a bit stunned that they will not be releasinsg the original uncut episodes considering the uproar that resulted from the original release of S1 which also contained syndication prints. The same thing was done with Roseanne but when Mill Creek re-released it last year, S1 did contain the original episodes- why the heck can't they do the same for this show?! If they can release S2 with the original versions then why not S1 as well?!?
I urge everyone interested in these releases to contact Mill Creek and voice your displeasure with edited episodes and urge them to acquire and release the original uncut versions.
