Currently on TCM On Demand


Oddly, they have this PG-13-rated film as TV-G!

reply

I just watched the film "On Demand," not having seen it since around 1990.
I had forgotten the son's last scene with his boss, but it is obvious he told him off (after saying, "And it is fine." several times), but the look on the face of the boss.
TCM, who I thought never cut the films shown, obviously cut that dialogue.
No idea now exactly what he said.
Maybe cutting this one line made is TV-G?

I thought the whole "Who wants someone to sit on their face" scene at the beginning immediately took it past a G rating!

Nothing was cut. This is the original scene. It may have gotten the PG-13 rating in '84 because of having a gay man (Fierstein) in it. Remember that was the Reagan era.
