Fraggle Rock DVD confusion.

Okay, I just bought Where It All Began(at Walmart of course, not knowing about the special edition that was already released elsewhere :smirk: ). I also just read that there is a season 1 set planned to be released next fall. What I am wondering is where are the episodes on WIAB from? Are they pilots? Are they all from season 1? Or are they from different seasons?

Also, are there different/more special features on the SE version of WIAB? The review here says the Walmart and SE versions are identical except for the lack of ending credits on episode 2 and the opening credits on episode 3.


edit: Also, check the release date for this Fraggle Rock DVD available at target.com. I thought you might find this amusing:

They are all from season 1, They are the first 3 episodes of the show. They are not pilots, they are actual episodes. If a season 1 box set came out they would be the first 3 episodes on that.

The Special edition has a bonus episode of the cartoon Animated Fraggle Rock show, and a special hour-long Fraggle Sing-a-long feature. The regular edition does not have theses two things plus the episodes are "merged".
