Hey JohnMor, is the Disaster 75 sketch on the previously released discs from CH or GR?
You think there is anything else cut on the Time Life discs that we haven't discovered?
I imagine now that the only change in disc 10 is the finale being restored, and maybe another musical number if there was one.
is the No Frills Airline sketch on disc 10 too? Was "off we go" the only cut in that sketch?
Yes, "Disaster '75" is on the CH discs (can't remember which volume number though [I'm still at the office].) I watched it on that fairly recently, which is why I hadn't watched it on the TL set yet.
Yes, the "No Frills Airline" sketch is in the Sammy Davis, Jr. episode. I am pretty sure (99%) that the only cuts were the finale (in its entirety) and the one line of Carol singing "Off we go..." in the airline sketch. Everything else seemed to match the CH dvd of that ep. The "Off we go..." line is a great joke, but the sketch still is wonderful even if that hasn't been restored (which hopefully it has), but I'm VERY glad the finale is back, as all those Harold Arlen songs are terrific.
As for other cuts, I'm not sure. I hadn't gotten to everything in the "Carol's Favorites" set because everything seemed to be there. I didn't know about the cut in the "Diasaster '75" sketch on that set until Time-Life John posted about it. In fact, I may dig both versions of that ep out tonight and watch them and see.
