Message: [QUOTE="Egg (McMuffin) Man, post: 79600, member: 212119"] He's talking about the English DVD set. The segments got cut for the same reason that they're cut from the Japanese DVD sets: licensing. They need permission to put those segments on the DVD release, just as they need permission to put the challenges. Usually some of them will get included as extras on the DVDs but otherwise the DVD version is different from the broadcast version as they just focus on the challenges and anything else (segments, interviews, bonuses, etc) are extra features. This is also why they released a "Tamage Special" DVD (a whole dvd dedicated just to that one segment). But the English DVD cut them entirely. The English DVD did a lot wrong though, Kotaku had gold handed to them on a silver platter and they really fucked it up. But it happens to games too. Some challenges have never made it onto DVD or were put on DVD very late because of licensing. For example, the Actraiser episode is from 2005 but that challenge didn't get released on DVD until the most recent box set. [/QUOTE]
