I was meaning to make a thread about this.  Kabillion hinted it on their Youtube channel.

Is this strictly a VOD service through cable providers? I hope not. I have U-Verse, which doesn't offer Kabillion.

A video was just posted on their Youtube channel. Look for Gumby episodes to appear on the service starting November 20.

Hopefully they will make ALL episodes available on their Youtube Channel. If not, then hopefully I can view them on their website, even if there is some sort of fee for a subscription or download. I just don't have Kabillion On-Demand through my cable provider.

Ha, I have that Gumby costume! Kabillion has finally given me a reason to care about them - hope all the Gumby episodes will end up on YouTube's Kabillion channel eventually!

I finid it interesting that this version has a 2006 Premavision copyright. This is the first time I had seen this one edited back together in its original format. I thought all the episodes that were restored by Premavision from 2005-2006 had been released for public viewing, but this one had never been available until now. I am curious what other episodes had been restored, but not released for public viewing.

It looks like new episodes are being added Monday, Wednesday and Friday, but if they keep adding only one at a time, it will take way too long to get all episodes up, IMO.

This version of Moon Trip did air on Me-TV back when they had the broadcast rights.

^ No it "didn't" .  The "Gumby on the Moon" part was, but everything else was all 16mm prints.

Well yeesh, you don't have to emphasize on the didn't part. My mistake, it's been over 2 years since that aired.

No, I was using quotes to say didn't loosely.  Really, I meant to say yes and no.

Actually, something I'm noticing on the other episodes, they now say 2013 on the date of restoration.  So these are very brand new transfers.  I think Moon Trip had 2006 because it was partly restored at the time (but not the whole thing before mentioned).  I hope the other two will be on Youtube soon.  Meanwhile, I'm really enjoying this Kabillion journey.  These will be fun to plug along the way.  And it gives me something to watch when nothing is on TV in my living room.
