They’re making new Ren and Stimpy cartoons, so anything is possible I suppose. ;\> ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by GMRyujin \* > \*\*You may be right. I think there was another scene that got cut in that episode. The stewardess comes into the cockpits and the pilots are laying there dead, with knives in them and blood everywhere. The stewardess screams and the pilots start laughing. Not sure on the episode, but I remember the scene. \*\* The episode is **Dammit Janet**. Lois gets a job as a stewardess and the pilots fake their death. ---

I didn’t even notice the absence of the Osama Bin Laden scene in “Road to Rhode Island”, even though it has been my favorite episode since it originally aired. It was a good joke, but I agree with their decision to cut it. ---

Little note for people who don’t get these specialty channels: Family Guy is airing at 2:30 pm weekdays (it follows Futurama at 2:00) on TBS. ---

I don’t remember the OBL scene when I saw the ep originally so I guess I didn’t really miss it when I watched the ep again on DVD, but it still pisses me off that it would be taken out. I hate that kind of revisionist shit. ---

I looooooove the Family Guy. I even have the Osama episode with Osama in it. I used to tape the Family Guy episodes. ---

I don’t care _why_ it was taken out. It still sucks. ---

_sigh_ I wish they would make new episodes. I am a Family Guy fanatic. In, fact, I shall go watch an episode right now. Woo! [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/could-family-guy-return/187469.md?page=1)
