* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: In the 2000s, the first 26 episodes were redubbed in Singapore with local English speaking actors. According to Chuck Powers (who did additional voices in the Singapore-dubbed versions), the reason the redubs were made is because it was too expensive to keep paying royalties to the celebrity voices. These are the versions available on DVD, qubo, and [=BYUtv=]. Because TV reruns and [=DVDs=] of the series are nothing more than the Singapore dubbed versions, the original PBS versions are easier to find on either official VHS releases by PBS Home Video and later Chik-Fil-A or tape recordings of the old airings. The official [=KidMango=]/[=YouTube=] versions of season 1 had the original voices, but [=KidMango=] has since blocked them, and "Loyalty" was never uploaded. Season 2 is even harder to find, because the VHS tapes were only available to schools, libraries, churches and other institutions, and fewer and fewer of these still have VHS. (Season 3 was never redubbed, because the voices were done in Vancouver, not Hollywood, so there's no celebrity [=VAs=] to pay royalties to.)

* DuelingDubs: There are two different English dubs. One was made in the 90s with celebrity stars from Hollywood ([[TheOtherDarrin later on with Vancouver talent]]). In the 2000s, Singapore redubbed the show with local English-speaking actors. The Singaporean version is more widely available than original, and was made to avoid paying royalties to the celebrity voice actors from S1-2 (The later seasons are not redubbed. Again, they feature Vancouver actors and not celebrities).
