Something I realized because of the 2 episode format from Season 1 that nobody talks about: Because of the format, any odd-numbered episode that is not the first story of a Railway Series book has a line towards the beginning of an episode that gives context from the previous episode to either remind viewers or tell viewers who didn’t see the previous episode what lead up to the episode’s current situation since it’s the first episode of an airing but in the middle of a book. Thomas and the Breakdown Train: “Remember, you can never be as strong and fast as Gordon, but you can be a Really Useful Engine. Don’t let the silly trucks tease you.” The Flying Kipper: “The special coal they’ve given you is working well.” Down the Mine: Not long ago, he had fallen into a dirty ditch. Thomas enjoyed teasing him about it. You get the gist.
I mostly watched Thomas on VHS instead of TV as it was broadcast too soon after school on CITV so I rarely got home in time. I didn't watch Thomas again on TV until NickJR started broadcasting it. But by then I had the Internet and could watch Thomas any time.
I usually enjoy watching Thomas and Friends on Yo-Yo TV, Momo Kids TV, and CBeebies, and sometimes I also watch mainland Chinese and Chinese Taiwan dub DVDs.
Something else I wanted to point out about some season 11 and 12 airings. They reused songs from past seasons. But they had karaoke and replaced or rearranged shots and they were longer. Mostly the Season 7 shots. My question is why? Why did they change the classic shots with hit ones that look no where near as good?
I find it frustrating that Calling all engines (Despite being in the style of Thomas on TV sort of) never aired on TV on PBS and when they aired it on Nick Jr they removed the songs and learning segments, the things that made that special fit as an airing were removed or the special was not shown.
Do you have any more info re Thomas being pulled from CITV in 1993. I knew AWDRY had issues with Henry’s Forest but can’t find any info about this being the reason it left ITV
I doubt they removed it cause Awdry was displeased of one story. Also anyone can write anything on a Wiki. Never believe anything unless there's a reference.
@@LeaderOfTheTracks you should the original owner of the airings Smurfy dan and black loch village Recordable airing 2008 Leadpaintcrisis Those are the only known people who have the nick jr airings
I grew up with Thomas on PBS kids normally Thomas would be on Sundays but my station airs it a day earlier. If you're confused I live in Maryland, US so my local station is MPT use to be PTV park plus
You forgot the very first Thomas movie, Thomas & the Magic Railroad, the only movie worth watching. After Series 5, Thomas episodes should have been kept to 4 and a half minutes long, with the same themes of music. That way, Thomas' classic image would never have been ruined.

It's very attracting seeing how a show has ''changed'' over the years!
I loved the down on the station segments much better than the learning segments
Same! I like the uniqueness of the Learning Segments but I love the real life railway footage of Down at the Station so much.
I also like down at the station segments but I still prefer learning segments bc I'm still nostalgic.
your the perfect Thomas RUclipsr to watch while making a custom or layout
Thank you! :D
@@portablethomas Yw :]

4:25 yes indeed it was also shown in discovery kids. But they cut the season 6-7 episodes of season 8-9 airings in the spanish and portuguese airings
Very cool
Thank you! :D
Happy 2K Subscribers!
Thank you! :D
What is :D?
1:28 rule 55

Engines wearing hats is canon!
Amazing video

HiT was the current stuff back then so it'd look more consistent to have HiT footage.
Great vid mate
Thank you! :D
This is just Thomas‘s journey on UK TV 2
I find it frustrating that Calling all engines (Despite being in the style of Thomas on TV sort of) never aired on TV on PBS and when they aired it on Nick Jr they removed the songs and learning segments, the things that made that special fit as an airing were removed or the special was not shown.
My us PBS station aired calling all engines
@@cwlong0803 I heard about that. Did they do what the uk did?
No they aired the whole movie.
everytime i see the fox family screenbug from 1999 i think of hello kitty's paradise
Do you have any more info re Thomas being pulled from CITV in 1993. I knew AWDRY had issues with Henry’s Forest but can’t find any info about this being the reason it left ITV
Might have been somewhere on the wiki I first read about it
I doubt they removed it cause Awdry was displeased of one story.
Also anyone can write anything on a Wiki. Never believe anything unless there's a reference.
So did seasons 4 & 5 not air on TV in the UK?
They aired on TV on Cartoon Network
@@SpongeDan Thanks.
Do you have Cartoon Network UK Thomas the tank engine and friends recordings?
No
What? I want 2 see how they aired.
Wow
Do you have links to any uk nickjr airings? Fantastic video.
I do but they're not my recordings to share. I'd be glad to if they were mine
@@portablethomas thats fine, do you know anywhere where i could find some or who to ask?
@@LeaderOfTheTracks you should the original owner of the airings
Smurfy dan and black loch village
Recordable airing 2008
Leadpaintcrisis
Those are the only known people who have the nick jr airings
@@MamadudeVivo I don’t have the link to series 9 airings from Smurfy Dan and Black loch village.
Did you ever record any episodes of Emu on CITV over the years?
No
@@portablethomasAll of your recordings are from The Box Of Broadcasts?, None of them you recorded yourself?
@@BrillBrixOther people recorded them.
Thomas youtubers are incapable of making a boring video
facts
Uk and Us : a lot
South america : one.... we have one...
Have you ever seen Thomas on Milkshake!? I mean like when they get premiered.
Yes, I grew up with Thomas on Milkshake! :D
I grew up with Thomas on PBS kids normally Thomas would be on Sundays but my station airs it a day earlier. If you're confused I live in Maryland, US so my local station is MPT use to be PTV park plus
I think I watched Diesel's ghostly Christmas live
I watched it live on PBS with Mr Perkins railway in the middle.

That was hardly formatted differently for TV aside from the end credits being sped up on the BBC broadcasts.
Can you do Thomas us tv journey?
Someone already did one so I don't plan on doing it myself.
Where do you live?
@@cwlong0803 Not going to say that
Ok but can you make your own version of Thomas' US TV journey I did not like the DuckStudios version.
@@cwlong0803 Still not going to do it
Make a Thomas and friends at Brazilian tv please
I don't know much about Thomas on Brazilian TV so I don't plan on doing that one.
@@portablethomas i recomend you watch the vídeo from Thomas boladão
You forgot cartoon network (1995-1998).
No I didn't. Thomas wasn't formatted differently on Cartoon Network so I didn't include it.
Were they individual airings?
@@cwlong0803 yes
How long were the slots?
You forgot Sprout.
They aired episodes individually
@ I know that.
Thomas aired on Nick Jr Australia did you know?
Yes
@@portablethomas unlike the uk block. Australia only got one single episode like on the DVDs and vhs tapes.
Can you do a face reveal?
He already did, catch up
Where?
How about you look for yourself
I checked his RUclips channels and I didn't see something about a face reveal.
Because it doesn’t have a dedicated video
