The bits of season five that made it to the cutting room floor instead of the screen, if you happened to be watching in UPN-land at least...

 

Cutting Room Floor

Nip And Tuck


The two minute edits which the last third of season five suffered when first transmitted by UPN are reasonably well known and documented, but there were also a number of episodes earlier in that season which had odd lines deleted here and there by UPN which showed up when they were broadcast elsewhere. The transcripts below are of the scenes and scene fragments that are missing from those UPN broadcasts, based on a comparison between the first airing on UPN and the full version of the episode.



Serious Scissor Jobs


From The Disease onwards, all of the remaining episodes in season five were transmitted in edited form by UPN in order to slice two minutes off the running time, having originally been filmed for a broadcast length of approximately 44 minutes. The transcripts below are of the scenes and scene fragments that are missing from those UPN broadcasts, based on a comparison between the first airing on UPN and the full version of the episode.



Cuts Unknown


At least one extra scene has been reported as showing up in reruns of Dark Frontier which did not appear in either the first airing on UPN or the video release of that episode. Presumably it was edited out as part of the process which that episode underwent in order to make it into a double length episode (the format the video release also took), and was later reintroduced when the episode was split back into its original two-parter format.
