60 Is my local station cutting the episodes? (Simpsons)
Probably not, unless you're watching the syndicated versions of the
episodes, which are edited. Episodes broadcast in England and Australia
are routinely censored to abide with younger children's viewing guidelines
because of the time slots used by these countries. In Germany, the series
runs now, usually without its end credits, at a late time slot. The
abridgement of the title sequence in the US is done by the Fox network.
Canadian viewers, who don't get the episodes through Fox are usually
granted the pleasure of a full episode each week.
In Belgium, the commercial broadcast station VT4 airs uncut
episodes of The Simpsons on an irregular, but usually daily basis.
Only the episodes 8F15 and 2F09 were edited. Thanks for Werner
Peeter for supplying this information (corrections are welcome).
