* In 1992, a few tapes returned by Cinderella Distributors were reused by The Video Company in a 32,500-unit production run of ''The Best Christmas Pageant Ever'' for Scholastic. One such tape was shown by a Salt Lake City classroom a few days before Christmas that year; due to TVC forgetting to erase the originally recorded pornographic material, scandal ensued and the producers of the special sued both TVC and Matrix over the affair.<ref>[https://law.justia.com/cases/california/court-of-appeal/4th/64/1306.html Schaefer/Karpf Productions v.
