The home video version of The Fugitive from 2001 onwards has been digitally altered to remove the sight of a crew member's head from the train crash scene. I'd have to check the next TV airing to see if WB are supplying the new master for telecasts. 

Allegedly, the fight scene between John Candy and the drunk clown during Uncle Buck was edited by Universal for profanity after complaints from parents. The original theatrical prints were recalled and replaced with what's now the standard version. Perhaps John Hughes fans can confirm the accuracy?
