DECADES BINGE ......


Love the fact that the Decades Network is doing a "Vegas" binge this weekend. Even though most of the die hard "Vegas/Dan Tanna" fans have the DVDs, it's still nice to see this show back on the air. Thank You DECADES !!!!

Haha... and I got to find out what happened to Bart Braverman. Only ever saw him in one of my favorite old SCiFi classics '20 Million Miles to Earth' as the young Pepe..... he was very good in that for being such a young child.
I had heard he went on to do a soap opera or something... never imagined he was in a hit show... never saw Vega$ before.. the time it ran on TV I was in my late teens early 20's... had much more important things to do than watch TV.😀

Did you also know that Bart played the little Italian kid in the "I Love Lucy" episode where the gang was traveling throughout Europe?

THANK YOU DECADES CHANNEL!!! I'm thoroughly enjoying the weekend binge of "VEGA$." I was too young to watch this show when it first came out, but I'm making up for lost time and having the biggest crush on Robert Urich!!! Love the episode where he's playing tennis in his tight, white tennis shorts 😄 I have to confess though, that I always thought that Dan Tanna was one word, his entire last name.

Tanna said "$200 a day, plus expenses"...was this an ode to Jim Rockford?

The binge was fantastic!

How about a channel showing the reruns regularly now?

Along with many other missed detective shows like Matt Houston, Barnaby Jones, Nero Wolfe, Jake and the Fatman, The F.B.I.,,etc.

Lets go!!

Not sure, but since both series were filmed at around the same time .... perhaps that was just the going rate for a private eye (?)

Nice I’ll have to check this out sometime!
