sooo funny. i was watching the night they did the rehearsal of it but were not allowed to use it. Craig did a very funny cold open anyways and kept harping on how he hoped "someone" would leak the rehearsal taping onto the internet - which happened a few weeks later - then they finally got the permission (I'm guessing from Orbital) to use it. Top notch stuff from Craig. *on edit - added the video of the widescreen official airing of the lost cold open.
