They'd chopped out the plot point, which resolved something. I was not a happy camper.

I get 3 OTA PBS Stations here (9,22,54).
This is the 21st C. We have DTV. They all have Sub channels.
Frequently they run 4:3 on one, while running 16:9 on the Main (usually the dot 1 ). They could run the untouched version on a sub channel so parents could filter.
BTW My pet peeve: "Reformatted to fit your (4:3) screen"
That destroys many wide 'effects' the director was presenting.
