Not recently. But when I bought the DVDs of Star Trek: The Original Series, I discovered just how much had been cut out for syndication.

In particular, I remember a scene from the beginning of "Space Speed" with Kirk and Spock discussing how they found the Botany Bay. The syndicated version opens with Kirk saying, "There it is" as the Botany Bay appears on the viewscreen.

Most all these shows I've only seen in syndication. I feel like I'm missing out on a lot.

That example was memorable to me because it was a larger cut than usual. Most syndicated Star Trek episodes have a number of small cuts, but in "Space Seed" they lopped off the first half the teaser.
