Cancellation
The cancellation of this show was due to ratings so bad the production company will never make a series like Weird-Oh's again. This could have been a great, anarchic animated TV show, but sadly it was eviscerated by network interference.
Hope
You can find volume 1 and 3 on amazon and the full length 1st episode on Vimeo but in bad quailty format and the segment "Gods and Monster Trucks on YouTube.

Weird-Ohs! "Head Gasket of the Class" (Full Episode)

Update 3/6/16: I have several episodes I taped on VHS, and have converted the 3rd VHS Tape
"Traffic Jam" so all episodes are available now. I have 16 episodes and a promo on my
YouTube Weirdo-Oh's Channel here...

Just hope Mainframe and Fox don't have a problem with it. Hopefully they won't as they "are" lost media and not available.
Update 1/20/2020: I have located all Weird-Ohs copies in DVD except the pilot. Current converting to Region 1 (NTNC) from PAL format. Have loaded "Black Eyed Babysitters" to my Youtube Channel (link above). The reason they have been so hard to find is because I don't think they were released on DVD in English, I found disc 1 "Lights Camera Action" on a Dutch DVD, and know at least disc 2 was available because you can find it's cover on a web search. And I found discs 2-4 on French ebay, the Dutch copy I have has English open and closing titles, but the French copies have French opening and closing titles. Now the French titles are just the name of the episode, Written by, and Directed by. So I have just added the English words into the openings. I have also had to covert them all from PAL to NTSC and add the English sountracks which work out well because they didn't alter the video at all, english sountracks fit in nicely like the VHS copies. Not sure if I'm gonna put them up at Youtube, it has been a lot of work so I may start a web page for Weird-Ohs, email me at jackmann_road@hotmail.com if you are interested.
