I’d bet most of you future magistrates and noblemen may not have enjoyed the show, but anyone have any information on whether it will ever grace my television again?

Does anyone know if the Season 2 disc will have the never-aired “When You Wish Upon a Wienstein”?

I have the R2 season 1 & 2 discs and it’s on the season 2 disc. The episode was not aired because FOX thought it was to “offensive”.

You read that right, _ **FOX** _ thought it was too offensive. :rolleyes:

And ‘Weinstein’ was relatively tame - compared to, for instance, that episode where Peter discovers his black roots. I mean, that had the “Day in the life of an Irish man/woman” scene and Quagmire “Jackpot!” scene.

The DVD is coming out April isn’t it?  
Also the episode are playing on Teletoon every night.  
Weinstein was tame. There has been far worse on the show. In Weinstein it was just playing the Jewish stereotype a lot, but it wasn’t offencive IMO.  
God I miss that show… Stupid Fox…

It reminded me of Carrol O’Connor in _All in the Family_. In Weinstein, only Peter is an idiot like always.

One possibly offensive (well, dirty) scene was Quagmire getting his keys out of his pocket for Lois.
