: : Hello everyone!
: : I just had an idea I'd like to present to everyone. I would really like Ocean Girl to move back to playing every day of the week here in Canad rather than just 2 nights a week. If I started a "petition"-type thing, to send to YTV asking them to either get rid of "Interent Tonight" (the show that plays in the OG time slot the rest of the week) or move it to another time slot, would you guys sign it for me? Even if you do not live in Canad, would you just put your name and email address to help the Canadian Ocean Girl fans?

: Well, I don't want to sound discouraging, but I don't think it is in the cards. The last time the issue was visited, OG lost to this show because of circumstances that I'm not allowed to mention. (the person told me off the record)

: The problem is that this is the second year that they have aired Ocean Girl and there are only 78 episodes. They have run the entire series over 4 times, and I'm sure that has something to do with it.

: The only thing I think might be worth considering, is when the end of this year comes around (the end of the year comes in the 1 week of September for TV) wait and see if they pick up the series again. I doubt YTV will pick up Ocean Girl for another season. However, there are a few places to consider contacting. Family Channel Canada DID run Ocean Girl before, and they might just run it again if the interest is there. The other possibility would be Public Television or CBC.

: Until then, unless they run out of episodes of this Internet Tonight show, I doubt you will see it on more often. We can always hope though.

: Regards,

: Savant

Okay, well thank you for the information. If you could find out in any way if they are to change the schedule, I'd be most grateful if you would post the information here on the messageboard...Thanks
