I think the better question is why add those deleted as opposed to others because not everything that gets deleted gets put back in /is included in the final package? I know in S3, David does commentary on Ep 3 because he directed it. I think I heard that the game of Thrones commentary from last season, it involved some of the actors that featured in the selected episode(s) doing the commentary alongside the director etc.(06-27-2017, 04:04 PM)rpmaluki Wrote: They were posted on this site last year.

Thanks, now that I have a choice, I may watch them someday.
A question: Was there an accompanying commentary that indicates why the scenes were deleted?
But there's no such scene showing Nick being romantic towards Eve that's included in the S5 or S6 packages because it would contradict the show. For a weekly show, the stuff that's added is typically complimentary with the aired show that gets wilted down to fit a specific period of length/rating. Directors have multiple reasons for cutting scene but at the top of the list, is time constraints. Another thing, the last two seasons heavily feature a domesticated Nick and Adalind, it was never necessary to show everything they did while living at the fome hence the deleted scenes, they left enough clues to viewers on how things were for/between them within the actual shows that aired. It's like when saying something in ten words or less as opposed to using fifty words instead without losing the context of what you're trying to say. A script is stuffed to capacity the director edits that down to the required length but without changing the original vision unless specially stated that they changed something in the scripts. We know they did that in S5 with Eve and I'm willing to add that the halted Nick and Adalind's domestic bliss when the changed Eve's story in the second half of the show. When S6 started, it was as if the suspicious between Nick and Adalind in the latter half of S5 didn't even exist.
It's in feature films where they can afford to have something different to the final product made specially and is always stated as an alternate scene as in the case of Will Smith's I am Legend, where the producer went out of their way to show a vastly differing ending probably to see which will be most well received by the audience. They stuck with the everybody lives option while also showing a non happy ending outside of the final cut, adding it as an alternate ending, independent of the final cut. Alternative scenes aren't the same as deleted because they are contrary to what we saw.
