I noticed the episode list for the Season 3 set goes into the real Season 4. Which means that next year when they release Season 4, it'll have the last 24 episodes in it. For those of you who don't know, Season 3 ended with "Gunge The Great & Glorious." I was curious as to how they were going to do the season set when Season 5 only has 12 eps.

Actually, "Sidebottom Blues" and "Whoopie Water" were shot at the end of the third season production schedule (though not aired until the fourth), so they will likely be on the upcoming set.

Yeah... production season means the shows they make in a season, air seaon is when they air.

A similar thing Happened with Futurama... if they did an air season set, the first season would be like 3 episodes or something.

I was wondering the same thing in the beginning when they started the Fraggle Rock Box sets. I did the math a while ago and I thought there was no way they could get 5 box sets with 24 shows on them each. In 1985/6 I believe there was very few made, and it seemed like in 1984 was the eyar they made the most unless they made a mistake in the production year. That part always confuses me. I noticed this back in the 80's.
