This show has completely vanished!!

I've never seen anything like it, for a show to literally disappear. I watched it a few times when it was on and really liked it. It was kind of timeless because of the complete lack of any connection to urban pop culture. It could have been today or 25 years ago. Because of when it was on I only saw it a couple of times, now it's just a vague memory.

But what's really strange It's not available ANYWHERE. No dvd release, no online viewing(official or youtube), but what really shocks me is that there's not even any torrents available on any of the peer-to-peer sites. You can find just about anything on p2p sites, even the most obscure crap from thirty years ago is avialable for dowload somewhere.

But this show is gone, even the message board is dead.

Yes, it`s too bad. I hope to see all episodes on a dvd set official or unofficial.

What about HP & Sonys DVD on demand service?
Do they have it does the service even exist?

Found an old pressrelease.

I can't believe nobody has this series for sale on dvd. I've been able to find some rare hard to find unreleased shows on dvd over the years, mostly on ioffer.com and sell.com(Ebay has lame rules)but have yet to locate this particular series. To the dude that I've seen post here who has most of the episodes on vhs, get them transferred to dvd and start selling copies! You can send them to me and I will transfer them for you. I have a time base corrector and an audio dubbing enhancer, the copies would be near perfect.
