: Can someone (i.e. Savant) please confirm that this is true. Is YTV going to continue airing ocean girl, even if in an unnaturally late timeslot? I just watched the last episode for the second time. I know Ocean girl is campy and I know it will eventually lost its novelty but I still can't get enough of it. It's like Drew Carey that way I guess. Oh well, on the upside if YTV airs it at 2:00AM that's approx. primetime in Australia right?

OK, here is a copy of the message I posted to my mailing list this past week...

As I promise, I try and stay on top of the news for Ocean Girl. As
requested by a list member, I was asked to find out more about the Ocean
Girl schedule on YTV for the fall.

If you live in Canada, you have been watching Ocean Girl on YTV for the
last year. As I said before, I expected that they would not continue to
show Ocean Girl when the new fall schedule came around.

Well I was part-right, part wrong. In a statement from YTV Viewer
Relations Department, they said: "Although our Fall schedule hasn't been
released, we can tell you that 'Ocean Girl' will continue to be part of
our schedule." However Ocean Girl will no longer be shown at 11pm on
weeknights.

Since I am able to get the 'inside scoop' I found out the story on the
time slot. For those who complained about the change in time slots from
10pm to 11pm, you are NOT going to like this...

Effective Monday, September 13 Ocean Girl will be showing on YTV
weeknights at 2:07AM. (I guess their schedule runs a little long at
night, thus the 7 minute delay in the show starting) So it is supposed to
start around 2am anyway, 3 hours later than it does now, which is the main
thing to know. YTV runs 24hours a day now, which they have been doing for
the past few months.

Bottom line though, Ocean Girl will continue to be shown on YTV in Canada.
So if you need to round out your tape collection, you have another year to
do it. You'll just have to use the timer on the VCR unless you are a
night owl.

Remember, you heard it here FIRST.
