(Original meaning there from the start.)<br />We know Austin is “the new kangaroo on the block,” and he joined the Backyardigans after the two pilots. In fact, the reason why he was so shy in “Castaways” was because it was his first time playing with the others and was worried about what they might think of him.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15746621.post-12638538523754051562022-12-31T13:24:42.346-05:002022-12-31T13:24:42.346-05:00I think Tasha lives next door to Pablo.

My practical assumption is that when they started, the kids who voiced Austin and Tasha were much younger than the other three (IMDb bears that out) so they couldn't work as many hours as the main three. Then the pattern was established, so they kept it up for all seasons.<br /><br />In the world of the show, I think it's quite Liz Czukashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15656897969180818333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15746621.post-60461120129489187282011-09-07T17:55:55.480-04:002011-09-07T17:55:55.480-04:00FYI- Tashas family is really rich so they are alwa...FYI- Tashas family is really rich so they are always on vacationAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15746621.post-86148718353163124052010-12-30T21:23:42.360-05:002010-12-30T21:23:42.360-05:00I am also glad that there are other people thinkin...I am also glad that there are other people thinking about these things.

But I'm bummed there isn't a better explanation as to why the two are left out of so many episodes.
