The Marathon is almost here
I hope they show all of them like they did a few years ago. At the very least they should include some choice fourth season episodes that rarely get any airtime -- like "The Parallel" or "In His Image."
shareWhat's the deal with the fourth season rarely being aired? I noticed that Netflix has all seasons but that one.
shareThose are the hour long ones.
I can't understand the reasoning behind Netflix not showing those.
We discussed this several threads ago. The 4th season only has 18 episodes. When the show began to be syndicated, buyers only wanted/needed 30 minute episodes for specific 30 minute time slots. So the 4th season episodes became the red-headed stepchildren and they weren't even included in the syndication packages. I grew up watching TZ, but I never even knew the hour long episodes existed until the 1980's and cable. To this day, it seems that the half hour episodes are separate contracts from the hour long episodes.
shareVery interesting, thank you.
