Hey guys, what I'm looking for something else now. Along with Purple Light from Lomax, the Hound of Music and the lost A Little Curious episodes, I'm looking for storyboards for The Backyardigans episodes! Only a few storyboards have resurfaced online and they are Polka Palace Party, The Legend of The Volcano Sisters, Catch That Train, Attack of the 50 Foot Worman, and The Funnyman Boogeyman.
I also have a few theories on what was originally going to happen in an episode as seen in the storyboards:
- In "Pirate Treasure", Austin was originally going to introduce himself to the viewer and say he moved to the neighborhood recently before meeting Uniqua. This scene was cut for time, so in the final episode, Austin and Uniqua would instead act like they've met before.
- Also in "Pirate Treasure", Pablo and Austin were originally supposed to point swords at each other instead of telescopes.
- In "Secret Mission", the spy maple syrup was originally spy super glue.
- In "Race To The Tower of Power", there was a deleted scene where Yucky Man and Dr. Shrinky arrive in the land of cold and decide to cross the ice to get to the Tower of Power.
- In "Mission To Mars", the characters dancing around in a circle in the closing song was going to be kept for that episode, before it was changed.

Let's get the storyboards found!
The one with the telescopes being swapped in place of the swords can probably be explained by censors or something like that. Hope you find them, reminds me of the Spongebob Deleted scenes.
I believe in "Castaways", it was originally going to be the first episode where there was a snack at Austin's house. Austin would've asked his friends if they would like to go to his house for a snack, and after the ending song was over, they would've gone through the gate to Austin's house, and Uniqua would've opened it one last time to say "Ahoy!" before closing it again. In the final episode, they go to Uniqua's house to have a snack, so Whodunit became the first episode where they go to Austin's house for a snack instead. Again, this is just a theory.
