1* EditedForSyndication: The [[Creator/{{ITV}} ITVX]] streaming release omits the "Filmed in Hypermarionation" title card used at the end of the intro, instead doing a more traditional SmashToBlack. Other than that, however, it's not been edited in any other way.
2* ScrewedByTheNetwork: ''New Captain Scarlet'' suffered from much of this, including having the last episodes aired OutOfOrder. In addition, as of the end of 2011 it has yet to be aired anywhere in North America and there hasn't even been a DVD release there, and only the first series is on Amazon Prime. Averted in the United Kingdom where there's a UsefulNotes/BluRay release of the complete series, and it is free to stream on [[Creator/{{ITV}} ITVX]].
3* WhatCouldHaveBeen
4** One episode was removed because Gerry Anderson thought it was too scary for younger children. As a result, this was one reason the last few episodes of Season 2 were aired out of order. Humorously however, the Episode "Grey Skulls" was given the description for this episode on the Season 2 DVD inside cover Episode List. The voice cast (along with Supermarionation voice legend Shane Rimmer) performed the censored script, "The House of Dolls" at one of the "Fanderson" conventions.
5** As noted under AscendedExtra, Captain Ochre seemed headed for lead character status at the end of the series, had a third season been commissioned.
6** Also, the revelation that [[spoiler:there are Mysterons willing to help the humans stop the war (in "The Achilles Messenger")]] likely would have been further explored had there been a third season.
