Or maybe they do, but it is impossible to find any copy of them because they have been widely censored/banned from airing.
This is essentially a thread about recent lost media.
What made me think of this is Sinead O’Connor tearing up a picture of a certain leader on SNL. Perhaps this one actually can be found on YouTube, but I haven’t looked for it and was just reminded of it when reading an article.
Another SNL one was Martin Lawrence giving a very explicit monologue on SNL about female hygiene habits. The only Lawrence monologue that survives has been heavily edited since first airing.
For a non-SNL one there is Chris Rock throwing out an unintentionally disastrous/hilarious first pitch at some MLB game.

The Full length version of the Ren and Stimpy Big Baby Scam cartoon, complete with the family bath scene. It's not even complete on the DVD set.

Lots of stuff from Beavis and Butthead isn't available thru legal means. Thankfully the fully uncut King Turd bootleg set isn't hard to find.

The Chris rock one is on YouTube Cool, I was looking for that one for a long time and it used to not be on there. I’ll have to watch before it gets taken down.

The unedited version of Sinead O'Connor was on a 25th Anniversary DVD set.
And actually, this wasn't banned or anything, but there was a commercial for Dunkin Donuts that scared me as a kid that I haven't been able to find anywhere. It had the devil driving around in an Edsel throwing fire at popsicles and stuff like that on a hot day. Eventually, the coffee coolatta was too cool even for him and he crashed. Been trying to find this for years.

I remember after 9/11, the Simpsons episode, "The City of New York vs. Homer Simpson" hadn't aired on first-run syndication for the longest time. It did come on the DVD set, and at some point, I believe FXX has aired it at some point.

There's an old skit from In Living Color with Keenan Ivory Wayans playing Billy Dee Williams in a malt liquor parody "Bolt 45".
When his date drinks it, she passes out, and then Keenan places her on the table. Far as I know, it aired only once due to controversy and is only available on YouTube.

I don't believe The Postcards from Buster episode of him visiting a kid with two moms was ever shown again after its initial airing.

I think on occasion you'll find unedited fire-era episodes and video segments on YouTube, but some come and go. I assume the original cuts of Rocko's Modern Life episodes are out there too. One of the early Robot Chicken's with the Voltron Got Served skit's original music? Wayne's World movie: "No Stairway?" with the actual Stairway to Heaven riff. This is "since the '80s," but the scared straight episode of Fat Albert with the original dialogue.

OK I agree about all but the Stairway and Fat Albert moments. Have yet to see either online, but we'll see. The same might be true for everything we can name. If not online, in someone's collection. Unless there's a case where the master tapes no longer exist intact (as Mike Judge has claimed about Beavis and Butt-head) Going back ANOTHER decade, here's one that seems to be gone forever: the Wicked Witch of the West (yes THAT one...) on Sesame Street. Margaret Hamilton's Mister Rogers episode are readily available of course.

While it might not be publicly available, I've gotta believe that either PBS, the Jim Henson Company or the Children's Television Workshop has to have this in their archives somewhere.

That Next Gen Trek episode with the references to terrorism in Ireland was banned in the UK for years on the BBC at least.

The "Springfield's Most Wanted" special aired before the premiere showing of Part 2 of "Who Shot Mr. Burns?"
But, I'm sure it's out there on YouTube.
