Season Sixteen returns to US with second half of shows

Season Sixteen is returning to the TV airwaves of America for the broadcasts of the second half of episodes.

The remaining ten half hour shows were thought to be in limbo shortly after the PBS transmissions of the first 30 minute blocks.

After a four month hiatus, A Friend in Need, Winter Surprise, Communication, Let it Snow and Just Being You will begin airing in their weekly order starting from the beginning of September.

Though the 2012 episodes have yet to be named for their specific shows, Christmas Tree Express, otherwise known as The Christmas Express, has been passed on to an expected Christmas date.

Just Being You will instead replace Express' vehicle, Let it Snow a week after Communication.

Season Sixteen of Thomas & Friends returns to the US, every Saturday at 9:00am on KET starting from September 1st 2012. Repeats occur on September 29th at the same time once the series has finished screening.

Local PBS stations across the country begin transmissions through September where broadcast dates may vary.

Japan are currently screening the series every Sunday on NHK at 7:00am and 7:20am respectively.

The latest series will return for one more day in Australia, the United Kingdom and America on ABC2, Channel 5 and PBS stations respectively, with the episode, Christmas Tree Express in Christmas 2012.
