Very cool to hear this! Years ago I had wanted ads on the internet looking
for the show, and I was contaceted by the daughter of one of the producers
of it. The main guy is still around but never answered emails. IIRC the TV
companies I contacted didn't really have anything on it.
I wish I could find 3/4" broadcast tapes of it -- they should still be of
good condition and playable.
Eventually this guy surfaces that had recorded the show, and he traded me
for the episodes. They were in fairly rough quality but something is
better than nothing. I think it's the same source as the copies that are
in the wild now. I had dumped them to disk using a Matrox DigiSuite LE or
Matrox RT1000 setup but don't remember if I put it in the wild.
Hopefully knowledge of the show grows. I remember seeing some episodes as
a kid and really liked the show.
