The episodes were believed to be lost until YouTube user retunerman uploaded the first episode of the first season in the form of 3 separate parts on June 27, 2008.[1] Dailymotion user Peters200 combined the 3 separate parts in the full episode and uploaded it on January 2, 2018. To this day, the episode The Facts of Life is the only known full episode to be found. Graeme Wood, a TV enthusiast, published some of the TV schedules that the lost episodes of the show were published in, the first one being published by him on April 16, 2018.[2] Somewhere in 2022, retunermans videos were deleted[3], and the Dailymotion version was deleted at a unknown time, only making the theme song and end credits available for the first episode.[4]
