"... was a 50-episode ..."
"Is", surely? Isn't Wikipedia policy to treat programmes not on their original run as extant? (You never know what cable or satellite channels might be showing them.)
50 episode sounds fine to me, as that’s a common term for a single “unit” (for want of a better word) of any series, in UK English at least; in fact “episodic” is used to make a distinction with “serial” TV. No, what confuses me is the assertion that “Each of the 50 episodes lasted five-minutes, including a 20-minute Christmas special”. Is the Christmas Special four 5 minute episodes back-to-back, are there fifty 5 minute episodes and a 20 minute Christmas Special, or should it be “There are 49 episodes of 5 minutes duration, and one Christmas Special of 20 minutes”?
