Do the Paramount+ Star Trek episodes have missing scenes?
Paramount+ splits some episodes like Encounter at Farpoint, All Good Things and Caretaker into two 45 minute long episodes. Does anyone know if the split episodes are missing any scenes?
I'm asking because IMDb says this about Encounter at Farpoint:
"The two-part version, which is the one usually shown in syndication, is missing several short scenes. One scene cut has Riker being shown a recap of the Enterprise's encounter with The Q."
Syndication is not the same thing as streaming so I don't know if Paramount+ is also missing these scenes.
I am in the US and subscribed to P+, and I just checked: Paramount+ presents Farpoint as a single episode (noting in the title that it is Part 1 and 2) and includes the recap scene at 38 minutes into the episode.
Apparently Paramount+ only has the two-part versions when accessing Paramount+ from Amazon Prime. Or maybe it's because I live in Australia. The P+ website shows Encounter at Farpoint as a single episode. https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:T-p6Q4jkSGcJ:https://www.paramountplus.com/shows/star_trek_the_next_generation/episodes/&cd=25&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=au
