The original run of Prisoners of Gravity on TVOntario contained around 137 episodes over five seasons. My research has found that the exact number ranges from 136 to 139, but there doesn't seem to be one confirmed episode count. The later reruns on other stations have had fewer and fewer episodes included in their total runs. More information on the reruns can be found on the Broadcast History page

The numbers beside the episodes in the original (TVOntario) list are the original broadcast dates. If anyone could fill in the gaps I have, like most of season one, please contact me. There is an actual Prisoners of Gravity episode guide located here. It is well worth reading through if you have a spare afternoon.
