I learned that quite early, mostly because I'm from Quebec, there's so many of our translation that get lost (I guess it's a question of rights, the translation and original content have 2 different owners). The one that made me realize that first is Pokémon, there's just no way to get the original Quebec version (and funnily enough, it's the same French translation, just with the English Pokémon names). I had to buy the original VHS to be able to get it, and still just the first season seems to have been made in VHS.

Piracy doesn't help much either as theses translations were never digital in the first place. There's many show from my youth that I can't find with Quebec translation, even some that I can't find in their original language.

If I had the cash and time it's something that I would wish to try, getting the distributions rights of a few of theses old shows. There's no way it would be that expensive (probably take quite a bit of time though) and nostalgia would works quite well I believe to attract enough viewership to support it.
