I thought that perhaps in Australia the rules of when to release video tapes was different.
Since series 4 was shot in 1997 which is only a few years ago, the actors would still be paid
residuals as the series is in syndication. Once the videos are out the actors would be paid according
to the signing agreement for the videos. The release of videos may have something to do with signing
contracts.

Thats really dumb since so many other shows have been playing and even are still taping for new episodes where there are tapes for people to get get so they can get the OG episodes. The show "Animorphs" is still airing and they have a whole video on it. Oh well!

: I am currently recording all of the episodes for Ocean Girl. I am in season 4 and then i have to get the ones i missed. I don't know how to make copies(and if it is legal) but i will have them. See ya all! Love ya all!
