On streaming or dvd
I had this thought while watching saved by the bell.
It’s weird enough that the miss bliss year is retroactively season 1, but it’s also kind of weird that they took off the part where Zack introduces the episode. It obviously wasn’t on nbc and it’s not on streaming. So it’s just lost to time unless you can find one of those substations that okay the original syndicated airings.
Also, where the hell is We love Lucy? It’s not decades tv, they don’t play it on the local fox channels anymore. Last time I saw them was tv land where it reverted back to the Lucy-desi comedy hour with all its original bumpers and into put back in. But they don’t play them anymore either

Wrestling has loads of lost promos for local events that aren't on the Network and only exist on either home recordings or presumably the WWE vault.

The original season finale for the 1985-86 season of SNL involved the cast (save for Lovitz, who Lorne saved) getting caught in a burning room, with a "who will survive" cliffhanger. This isnt on the Peacock version (they just use generic credits over the NYC skyline).

Doctor Who had an introduction narrated by Karen Gillan as Amy Pond that was placed at the beginning of episodes on SyFy and I think in Canada? I read it on TV Tropes and I know Netflix had those intros, but not the DVDs, iTunes or YouTube. Not sure about Max.

I was gonna mention the "Alistair Quince" introductions for the first two seasons of Mama's Family (back when it was on NBC and not first-run syndication), but apparently those segments were restored for DVD releases. Now I feel embarrassed. Nickelodeon created special openings for when they were airing reruns of Animaniacs and Pinky & The Brain which basically boiled down to intrusively grafting orange splat logos into the original openings wherever they could. For a variety of reasons these have never been included in home video and streaming and is one of the few examples I can think of of nobody really wanting them to. In 1974 CBS broadcasted a Planet of the Apes television series, which was quickly canceled due to low ratings. A few years later someone got the idea to edit some of the episodes together to make a series of TV movies. Roddy McDowall was hired to reprise his role from the show of Galen (as opposed to Cornelius or Caesar, who he played in the movies) for a few short wrap-around segments to tie things together, which included dialogue that technically resolved the series ongoing storyline (two then-modern day astronauts trying to find a computer they could use to get home). Neither these TV movie edits nor these exclusive wraparounds were ever included in any official home video releases or streaming. The original season finale for the 1985-86 season of SNL involved the cast (save for Lovitz, who Lorne saved) getting caught in a burning room, with a "who will survive" cliffhanger. This isnt on the Peacock version (they just use generic credits over the NYC skyline). I was actually going through SNL on Peacock a few weeks back and it's amazing how many episodes from the 80's and 90's are completely shredded in editing. Some have only 20 minutes or less available. I know a lot of this is music rights, but man, WTF happened with Kathleen Turner in season 15 that they can only give us 15 minutes of her episode?

I think a lot of this boils down to:
A). Legal / ownership issues when the material does still exist.
or
B). Syndicated prints / tapes being lost with no official studio-owned copies existing anymore so that all that exists are copies recorded Of Air onto Betamax or VHS (or whatever) by people watching at home.

This isn't 'network specific', but a decision by the show producers (I guess)...
On the first few seasons of "The Carol Burnett Show", the episode would end with Carol and the cast and guests on stage, Carol sings her goodbye song, the guests sign her guest book, etc.. Nine times out of ten, everyone on stage is wearing a costume from a skit that isn't on the show. This makes me think that they filmed enough footage for an hour long show and picked the funniest bits for broadcast... but where is the footage from the rest of the show?
(unless it was a running gag where everyone gets dressed in crazy costumes just to shoot the ending)

The Saban Dragon Ball Z dub, obviously won't be released officially anytime soon but it had a way to censor Gohan's behind in one episode (by putting torn pieces of Vegeta's clothes into the offending body part)

Stretching, but...the proper Stiletto voice now being the primary version of Danger Mouse seen on streaming, etc. The ones with Cockney Stiletto are now the rare ones!

I also think Danger Mouse had segments in its syndie version that weren't seen on Nickelodeon. DVDs too. I guess this is kind of syndication, but...The Raccoons and the Lost Star as a two-parter, as it was seen in the US in some markets, is very rare too. With it we lose a bumper for part two with Kevin Gillis narrating, along with the Part One end credits (which have a part of the LS score that I have yet to hear in the clear). Part Two has a cold open/recap. The DVDs North America did get of The Raccoons eliminates the cold opens in favor of a static title screen with Len Carlson commentary. Some 80s cartoons are great at preserving their commercial bumpers (Transformers, G.I. Joe). Others (He-Man)? Not so much. Has any Disney Afternoon collections included the general TDA opening and theme that starts the block? Club Mario.

The original airing of The Snowman featured the author Raymond Briggs introducing the story. In every other version it’s either David Bowie (DVD) or cuts it out entirely (repeat broadcasts)

Did the DVD release of He-Man 2003 include the end-of-episode PSAs (yes, they did those even in 2003, guess it was too much of a tradition to stop)?
Also, while most DVDs do include the theatrical trailers for movies, they (for obvious reasons) dont include the advertisements for tv airings of the movie, which would be a nice bonus, but it would involve having to deal with the owners of the networks. Here's one example to show what I mean:

This isnt on the Peacock version (they just use generic credits over the NYC skyline). SNL Season 11 endingI wonder why Lovitz was the only one pulled out? Nora Dunn and Dennis Miller were two people that remained on the show (I think Al Franken did as well). I guess that was just part of the actual cliffhanger.

I guess that was just part of the actual cliffhanger. Because Jon Lovitz is so lovable. And seriously, who would want to save Dennis Miller from anything?
