Scrapped episodes[edit]
Various episodes from the series ended up being scrapped. "A Tail of Two Rangers" / "Bye Bye Beavers" was never animated due to the latter breaking Nickelodeon's rule against "final episodes" that reference the fact that the show is ending.[39] In around 2001, an archived version YTV's website confirmed this episode, alongside two others (#064 - "Sister Pilot" and #065 - "The Angry Beavers Rock Opera," two half-hour specials).[37] Don Del Grande's episode guide denotes two other scrapped shows: another Halloween special, "The Very Loud Screams of the Night Beast" and a stand-alone segment entitled "Tree Troubles." (mistakenly listed as "Tree Flockers.")[40] The latter's script cover can be found on an archived version of Micah Wright's website.[41]
