Although always disappointing, this is very old news. At one point during Columbo's run on the CBS Late Movie, episodes that originally ran two hours in length were being edited to run in an 80-minute slot.
Rod Serling's Night Gallery anthology ran for an hour for its first two seasons, but in syndication was offered as a half hour. As a result many segments were butchered in order to run within the allotted time.
