To try to increase interest in the series, in 2006 Fox aired "Fast Forward" season on commercial TV. 4Kids Entertainment later signed a deal with Comcast and this season began airing on Comcast-On-Demand in August 2006.

Fox later aired the "Membership Drive" episode on March 24, 2007, it was the first episode of the season to air on regular television. 4Kids started showing the 13 episodes of this season starting on February 9, 2008. The season was promoted as the "Lost Season".[citation needed]
