By the way -- as recently as a few years ago, when the series aired on cable they were still using the 1986 Colex pre-edited syndication versions of the shows mostly; IFC seemed to have the mostly uncut MTV/Nick versions. (The series simultaneously ran mostly uncut on MTV/Nick while "edited on video" episodes were shown in syndication.)
Since the release of the Blu-Ray set, the shows have been shown in remastered versions -- which I believe was a huge part of the reason the Blu-Ray set was released in the first place. (It helped to fund the HD remastering of the shows, which they were going to do anyway.)
Recent showings on Antenna TV seem to originate from the remasters, although they have been edited.
