The famed Australian children's group The Wiggles have had multiple TV shows since 1998 with a new series being produced ever so often with some gaps in between releases. Some of their TV shows have different runtimes depending when and where the show aired. The show's episodes have been shortened down from 22 minutes to 11-12 minutes, replaced some effects, and basically extended their episode count from a typical 13-26 episodes to 26-52 episodes.
However, now that the shows are available on iTunes, DVD and have been officially uploaded to YouTube (only Series One[1] as of January 2021), their original 22-minute forms were used and most of these versions have never resurfaced since their airings.
Series 1
Series One would be the first series to air on Sprout after being pulled from Playhouse Disney after seven years and replaced with Imagination Movers. The show aired on Sprout from the original count of 13 episodes to 26 episodes that mostly consists of an original episode's content in one episode and the rest of the episode's content in the next episode. These episodes are the rarest to come by with only two episodes surfacing in their entirety.

18 minute versions from GMTV
The second series first premiered in the UK before it aired in Australia and the United States. It aired on ITV's GMTV[3] (now known as ITV Breakfast Broadcasting Limited) and was 18 minutes long, unlike Series 1 that ran 22 minutes, and these versions of the episodes were only made for GMTV. When the show aired again on Nick Jr. UK in 2004, their 21-minute versions made for Australia and North America were used. Various shots and scenes from different episodes, including their earlier audio mixes, have popped up on the spin-off videos The Dorothy the Dinosaur and Friends Video (released in May 1999) and Captain Feathersword the Friendly Pirate (released in May 2000). Only one DVD with an 18-minute version of the episode Play was released in the UK in 2005, the rest of the 18-minute versions of the second series are lost. There have been rumors that the original GMTV versions of the episodes used to have songs from the videos The Wiggles released back in their early years. In addition, to the intros and outros being shortened.

Series 3
Series Three (entitled "Network Wiggles!" or "Lights, Camera, Action, Wiggles!") first aired in Australia in September 2002 on ABC1 and unlike the previous shows, the 52 episodes that premiered were 11 minutes long, making Series Three the first Wiggles TV show to premiered with 11-minute episodes. These versions of the episodes also aired in Canada on TVO in January 2003. When the show premiered in the United States in October 2003, the episodes were re-edited to fit the 22-minute runtime and the total of episodes the series has is 26. Some scenes and shots that were shown in the 11-minute episodes were edited out of the 22-minute versions to make way for other scenes and shots that were filmed for the 22-minute versions. Though the 11-minute versions have aired on Sprout in the United States. The 11-minute versions have been released as special features on various home media releases of many Wiggles videos, although there are still many episodes that have not been given this treatment and a lot of the 11-minute episodes are not accounted for.
