The Avengers on Hulu

As noted elsewhere, some episodes of the 60's series The Avengers (starring Patrick MacNee and Diana Rigg) are on Hulu.  But Hulu's episode listing doesn't match the presumedly accurate listing on wikipedia.  So let's reconcile them.

Hulu  Wiki
4-01  4-01  The Town of No Return
4-26  4-26  Honey for the Prince

5-01  5-01  From Venus With Love
5-16  5-16  Who's Who?
5-17  5-17  Return of the Cybernauts
5-24  5-24  Mission Highly Improbable

6-01  5-17  Return of the Cybernauts
6-08  5-24  Mission: Highly Improbable
7-01  6-01  The Forget-Me-Knot

Episode 4-01 was the first episode in which Diana Rigg appeared.  Episode 6-01 was the last episode.  So Hulu has all the Emma Peel episodes.

Going through listings, the episodes match up pretty well.  The confusion is that that they list 40 episodes for season 5 instead of 24.  That's because episodes 1-16 are listed twice.  Episodes 17-24 are listed once for season 5.  But then are listed again as Season 6, episodes 1-8.  So all of season 5 is listed twice.  And finally Season 6, episode 1 is listed as season 7, episode 1.

I see there was a long break between episode 16 and episode 17 of season 5.  Episode 16 aired on 5/6/67.  Episode 17 aired 9/30/67.  So there's some justification for Hulu listing it as a separate season.
