10th Anniversary Release
In 2011, Tsuburaya productions has released the entire TV Series in DVD Box set, under the title "Ultraman Cosmos: 10th Anniversary Memorial Box", features all 65 episodes plus three newly-edited episodes. Comes with a 32-page description.
Arrest of Taiyo Sugiura
In June 2002, Cosmos was taken off of television for several weeks (following the broadcast of the 49th episode) when lead actor Taiyo Sugiura was questioned in an assault and extortion case. The feature film Ultraman M78 Theater Love & Peace and the direct-to-video Ultraman series Ultraman Neos were broadcast during this period. When the case against Sugiura was dropped for lack of evidence, Cosmos was put back on the air.[2] TBS and Tsuburaya ultimately pulled five episodes (50, 52, 54, 56, and 58) from broadcast to make up for time lost, and these episodes were later released on DVD.
