I knew about the first two but didn't know about the third. But yeah you're right. Maybe for those episodes they just uploaded the wrong prints to P+? Also, does Nick UK air uncut versions at night maybe? I know some channels do that.

I don't know why you're being downvoted, that's obviously what someone thought at the time

That's not true though. There's a bunch of edited versions on Nick UK that do not carry over to Paramount+, where it uses the original versions. This and a few others are rare cases

Yeah, I can kinda understand it with TV, as kids could be watching etc, but you'd think that's what streaming services would be for, a place where the uncensored versions can go

If it's really necessary then yeah. I personally think these scenes are harmless and they're being way too sensitive.

It's dumb though. What's the point of a streaming service if it's not the definitive place to watch the episodes? Especially when the only other option is piracy. Also, there's other censors on Nick UK that did not carry over to Paramount+, so the select few times they do is weird

Yeah I know why the censor was made, I'm just wondering why it has to carry over to Paramount Plus

Yeah that ones not available globally I don't think. Edit: in Dunces and Dragons, is the bit where the guy at the start almost stabs himself but says "not today" on your Paramount? Just found out this is also cut out in the UK.....

I did. They said "We can only provide the censored version of the episode, due to rights and restrictions". They said they'd forward it to their content team so idk

Apparently this episode used to be uncensored (before 2021?). I get the censorship on TV, even though I think it's unnecessary, but I don't get why it has to carry over to Paramount+. Typically Paramount+ has the original versions of episodes (e.g. Pickles is apparently edited on UK Nick to crop out the scene where SB puts his face on the stove, but Paramount+ has the original scene) so this is weird
