I love this topic, because it gives me the chance to mention what i always thought was the most hilarious case of editing for t.v. Years ago, when the original Ghost Busters came to t.v., there was an incident of imaginative t.v. dubbing. The original dialogue went something like this :
Dan Akroyd:" Dickless here made us release the ghosts. "
Mayor: "Is this true?"
Bill Murray "Yes, its true, this man has no dick."
The dubbed dialogue was:
"Walley Wick here made us release the ghosts" "Is this true?" "Yes, this man is some kind of rodent, I don't know which."
That killed me, "this man is some kind of rodent, I don't know which" remains, to this day, one of my favorite sayings.
