Who Carries The Rat Patrol now?


Anyone know what network now carries The Rat Patrol? I'd heard that Encore Action carried it, but I've been unable to find anything in their online listings.

reply

NO 'Rat Patrol' on the Action Channel, but they are carrying 'Combat!' at the present time... mayyyyyyyyyyybe, if we were to write a bunch of letters/e-mails regarding RP... but, for now I'd check my local channels... btw... the last time I saw 'Rat Patrol', on any kind of regular basis, was the early-mid 80's when WGN used to show it after Cubbies games... & that's been a while now...

i don't think anyone is carry-ing rat patrol now, at least here in Montana. have you checked tv land channel?

To the best of my knowledge, no one is currently airing Rat Patrol. However,
the series is available as a 6 volume set on DVD from Wellspring Video at
1 800 538 5856. One caveat. . .well, actually, two: the set is a tad pricey at $120.00, and the episodes do not appear to have been remastered, being instead transferred directly from film onto DVD. If neither of these conditions bother you, have at it! Frank C. [email protected]

I want to see "Twelve O'Clock High" so bad!!!!

I wish I had cable.

RP is very far fetched but fun to watch anyway!!!

MeTV in Chicago is now airing RP at 3:30 am weekdays.

I think we're just gonna have to be secretly in love with each other and leave it at that.

reply

I wish our local MeTV affiliate was airing Rat Patrol.... They already have Combat! and Twelve O'Clock High, as well as a lot of military comedies (Hogan's Heroes, Sgt. Bilko, etc.); they might as well.

reply

Netflix On Demand carries it now.

reply

H&I (Heroes&Icons), a new network, just started showing Rat Patrol on Sat mornings at 6&9am, two episodes each time. Enjoy!
