Yes. Older shows are the wrong length for today's cycle so bits get cut out. I've seen episodes of MASH and Friends (not even all that old) edited really badly so that a character says something that is nonsensical in relation to what was said before, but it's because part of the conversation has been removed purely to accommodate modern timing. Butchering shows to allow more time for crapality adverts is my biggest peeve.
