I'm not sure on this, but I believe the first time it aired on ABC was in 1998, probably around January. I might be way off, though. I do know that the same version aired on FX not too long ago (3-4 months). I have it on tape somewhere, some of the redubbed dialogue is truly hilarious, but I can't remember any off the top of my head. I do remember that they changed the scene where the 2 contestans get knocked out, Jay refers to it with saying "fat chronic blunt", ABC changed it "fat karate punch." Or something of that sort.

: : Is it just me or does the mallrats version of ABC suck ass with all the good scenes taken out and voices dubbed over for Jay and everyone else! Especially Jay, it sounds nothing like Jay. More like a toilet being flushed repeatitly while someone kicking a young squirrel's offspring in the kneecap no less. I feel pity for all those people in the world who had to miss out on the orginal and better version. First Mallrats, then Clerks:The cartoon! How many more times must ABC screw over Kevin as well as a number of other filmakers who have aired their movies on the network before they realize...hey that's not his voice.
: : P.S.(Apoligizes to the people who had to do those voices.)
