Did they reach the planet of the "princess" or whatever by the end of the second season? (finding out that it was a twin planet to that of their enemy)
How much did it cost you?
Why is this series so darn expensive?

If you don't have the money to spare, you can always rent all three seasons at Netflix.

Though the pow'rs of darkness against us frown,
We shall win the fight, and shall wear the crown.
Season 3 only played in a limited number of TV markets across the US. The biggest change was the voices from the first 2 series. If memory serves correct there was like a 3 year diference from when the first and second series was dubbed to when the third was completed. None of the original actors were apparently available or could be found. Still it's not a bad story, with today's technology they could probably easily overdub the third series with the voices of the original actors.
share--Except that the original actors are so much older now it wouldn't sound the same. But it would be an improvement over what they have now! BTW, as strange as it may sound, it wasn't that they weren't available, it was that the actors were non-union and so they didn't keep their contact info on file. When they were ready for the third season the actors had scattered to the wind and the production company was so near bankruptsy (hense the limited release of season 3) that they didn't have the time or resources to track them down. It was cheaper to go with new voices.
That's also why it was years before anyone knew who the actors were--no union contract for credit. At least in the entertainment biz, unions are still somtimes a good thing.
