Does anyone have a count of how many episodes were broadcast in each time period?

I got this information from the DS Almanac, section entitled Storylines.

There are 1225 total episodes.

1795 - Episodes 365-461 = 96

Return to 1796 - Episodes 657-667 = 10

1897 - Episodes 700-884 = 184

1970 Parallel Time - Episodes 980-1060 = 80

1995 - Episodes 1061-1070 = 9

1840 - Episodes 1110-1198 = 88

1841 Parallel Time - Episodes 1198-1245 = 47

All totalled that is 514 episodes outside of the normal DS timeline as long as you count 1970 parallel time. That means 711 episodes took place during the normal DS timeline between 1966 and 1971.

Well technically the only time period in which episodes were broadcast was 1966-71, since TV didn't exist in the other time periods! ;)  But seriously, folks...

I don't know which edition of the Almanac you have, jeffrey.  I've got the Millennium Edition and it seems to have more detailed information than you posted.  Here's a chronological ordering I prepared of what's there.

1680 PT
Episode 1231 (1 episode)

1692
Episode 1140 (1 episode)

1795-1796
Episodes 366-461, 610, 623, 661-666, 885-886 (94 + 1 + 1 + 6 + 2 = 104 episodes)

1840
Episodes 1109-1198 (86 episodes)

1841 PT
Episodes 1186-1245 (59 episodes)

Early 1890s
Episode 877 (1 episode)

1897
Episodes 701-885, 922, 938 (182 + 1 + 1 = 184 episodes)

1949
Episodes 270, 900 (1 + 1 = 2 episodes)

1966-1971
Episodes 1-365, 461-661, 666-701, 815, 835-837, 873, 887-981, 1007, 1012, 1031-1032, 1035, 1052, 1070-1109, 1113-1114, 1198 (361 + 197 + 36 + 1 + 3 + 1 + 91 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 40 + 2 + 1 = 739 episodes)

1970 PT
Episodes 969-971, 975-1060 (3 + 86 = 89 episodes)

1995
Episodes 1061-1070 (10 episodes)

The totals don't equal 1225 because some episodes take place in multiple time periods.  Dreams set in different time periods aren't included in the list.
