Man, I feel your pain on this one. I had a similar nightmare with an old binding machine I picked up at an estate sale - the roller kept grabbing the cardstock at a weird angle and folding the corners. I spent a whole Sunday trying to get through 30 copies of a poetry chapbook for a friend. Had to use a butter knife to gently coax each page through without smudging the toner. That GBC 180 is a beast when it works, but when it decides to act up, you're basically doing a manual assembly line.

Yeah that "director's cut" idea makes sense. I heard somewhere that Gilligan tinkered with the color palette for the blu-ray release and those versions ended up on streaming. So your memory might not be totally off, the show could look slightly different now than it did on cable.

and now im scrolling through old photos of my cat from 2013 like its a crime scene investigation, trying to figure out what triggered this weird nostalgia vortex lmao
