I'm looking for ANY episodes of DS that ARE NOT from the first season. The show is currently airing in England (where I am) on the Trouble Channel but they refuse to show anything other than season one episodes, all of which, I have on tape.

It would make my decade if someone out there could make me copies of episodes from the other seasons. I'd gladly pay you for the cost of tapes and postage. If there is ANYONE out there who can help me please, please, please, please email me asap at Nightshade38@aol.com or reply here with contact details. Thanks for reading.

Hi Nightshade, I though I was the ONLY Diffrent Strokes fan in England, it's good to see I'm not!

I'm in the same situation, I've taped all of the first and second seasons that Trouble show.
For some reason there is even some they won't show from them-

The Spanking
No Time For Arnold
Arnold's Girlfriend

People complained at N@Nite banning The Bicycle Man but those three above where banned from Trouble!

Nice to meet you Jet (is it okay if I call you that?).

They won't show those eps either? That is so weird. Trouble is a channel meant for teens and I think all teens are perfectly able to handle the stories featured in DS. Why are Trouble being so stupid? God. Knowing them they'd probably refuse to show Brady Bunch eps!

I hate tv network censoring (sp?). I don't get trouble. If they're only showing seasone one, why bother at all? Stupid idiots.

Replace "Trouble" with "Nick at Nite", and you have the same basic thing FoL and DS Fans have been saying since September 2000.

Wouldn't that Be More Around the Summer and Now? Because in September 2000 FOL was overplayed for a long time (Not That It's Not a Good Show) and DS wasn't even on there until March
