We know that most of the time a lot of moments in tv edits are just so ridiculously comical, but this has a very clever difference that I actually enjoyed better in the edit than in the original film.
During the reveal towards the end in the mansion, everyone is calling Christy a bimbo over and over again. She gets fed up and throws a vase at Vera. In the original Vera quips back - "that was a very expensive vase, you bitch." That's pretty funny, but the tv edit is so, so much better and far more clever: "that was a very expensive vase, you bimbo."
How perfect was that, really?
That is up there with the "Christopher Columbo" edit in National Lampoon's Vacation.

my all time favorite is Tremors, when the megaworm hits the aquaduct, Kevin Bacon usually drops the "f-bomb", the edit became "fooled you!"

Sometimes, the edits are actually better.

I remember Michael J. Fox's character in "The Hard Way" getting up one morning saying "slug in a ditch" instead of son of a bitch. That was pretty funny.
