Let's see if any of the other long-term inmates remember this. I think when we
were trying to get FK into production for a third system, Nigel Bennett told us
that someone had wanted to buy and continue the show. The deal failed because
some or all of the first season wasn't available. The rights to just those
shows, or maybe the rerun rights, were owned by someone who wouldn't sell.
If I'm remembering right, this could be why Chiller only seems to have certain
shows. These might be the episodes which were controlled separately.
McLisa, pretty sure this is not an hallucination <g>

But I thought High and Mighty Sony owned everything. That's why they stopped
the books and anything else connected with FK.

Subject: FK on Chiller & Other Places
I've noticed that Hulu and Crackle have seasons 1 & 2 available online.
Also, the episodes that I've seen on Chiller have been, I believe, from
seasons 1 and 2. And, I seem to remember seeing some of season 3
on Hulu or You-Tube, but they are gone now. and not available there.
I would suspect that whoever owns the re-broadcast rights to seasons
1 and 2 have released (or sold or rented out) those episodes to
Hulu and probably Chiller. I have no idea where season 3 may
be in the sceme of things.
Thank goodness for the DVDs! :-)
