The 2001 PBS series '''''Sagwa, The Chinese Siamese Cat''''' only had about a quarter of its 40 episodes (79 segments) released on VHS and DVD, with the rest remaining unreleased and, over time, lost. The show was removed from most PBS stations by late 2008, although it did continue to air on TV Ontario in Canada for a few years.
'''''Sagwa, The Chinese Siamese Cat''''' is an animated educational show created by Amy Tan and produced by CinéGroupe and Sesame Workshop that originally aired on PBS and TVO-Kids from September 3rd, 2001, to October 5th, 2004,<ref>[https://www.pbs.org/about/blogs/news/amy-tans-sagwa-the-chinese-siamese-cat-produced-by-cinegroupe-in-association-with-childrens-television-workshop-and-ifx-productions-is-coming-daily-to-pbs-kids-january-19-2000/ A PBS press release announcing the series.] Retrieved 15 May '20</ref> with 40 episodes made (79 total segments). It followed the misadventures of Sagwa, her two siblings, and occasionally their friends as they went to various locations and learned more about their family's history, China's residents, and themselves.


A few episodes are still available on [http://www.tfo.org/fr/univers/sagwa-la-chatte-siamoise TVO's French website]; however, the videos are region-locked to Canada.
The show was very successful and popular during its run, winning four awards and generally getting good ratings on the network. Consequently, the show frequently re-ran on most PBS affiliates until 2009. The show was re-broadcasted on TVO until 2013, on the Knowledge network until 2014, and for a short time on TFO in early 2017.
 
==Availability==
Despite the show's popularity, less than half of the show's episodes were released on any official home media. Additionally, 16 segments (five of which were also released on home media) are available on [http://www.tfo.org/fr/univers/sagwa-la-chatte-siamoise TFO's French website], but they are region-locked to Canada.
 
However, many fans of the show have collectively uploaded nearly every episode online, primarily on YouTube. The entire Portuguese dub is available on YouTube. Only 4 episodes in their original English dubs are unaccounted for.

Status: Partially Lost

Sagwa, The Chinese Siamese Cat is an animated educational show created by Amy Tan and produced by CinéGroupe and Sesame Workshop that originally aired on PBS and TVO-Kids from September 3rd, 2001, to October 5th, 2004,[1] with 40 episodes made (79 total segments). It followed the misadventures of Sagwa, her two siblings, and occasionally their friends as they went to various locations and learned more about their family's history, China's residents, and themselves.

The show was very successful and popular during its run, winning four awards and generally getting good ratings on the network. Consequently, the show frequently re-ran on most PBS affiliates until 2009. The show was re-broadcasted on TVO until 2013, on the Knowledge network until 2014, and for a short time on TFO in early 2017.

Availability

Despite the show's popularity, less than half of the show's episodes were released on any official home media. Additionally, 16 segments (five of which were also released on home media) are available on TFO's French website, but they are region-locked to Canada.

However, many fans of the show have collectively uploaded nearly every episode online, primarily on YouTube. The entire Portuguese dub is available on YouTube. Only 4 episodes in their original English dubs are unaccounted for.
