What a time it was! Between Elvis and the Beatles. I guess you could call me a "tweener". Too young to go to Woodstock and too old to be a computer yuppie. I came across these shows (this show, FBI, Hawaiian Eye, Surfside 6) on Hallmark channel. What a travel back in time. Back to when I was two to three years old. Well as they say (George Harrison) "life goes on within you and without you".
My favorite episode of this show, which ran way too short of its potential was the episode where Agarn managed The Bedbugs (which were actually an L.A. band called The Factory which included Lowell George and Ritchie Hayward, later of Little Feat) and then in order to convince Agarn back into the service, F.Troop had its own band, The Termites, that had some of F.Troop in hilarious wigs, compete with the Bedbugs for the Playbrave Club circuit, and at the end of the show, The Termites do "Mr. Tambourine Man! What a riot! There are other episodes just as hilarious, too many to mention. I also think Gilligan's Island got screwed, mainly because Bill Paley wanted Gunsmoke (a true TV dinosaur already at that time) to continue, but Gilligan's Island was in its time slot that year. What a shame that two great shows got canceled way before their time.
I bought my first VCR in 1985, and this is my first pre-recorded VCR tape. I still watch it a lot. All the clips are top notch, especially The Unknown Soldier, which I first saw on a Hy Lit show (people from Philly and N.E. PA remember this show) and Touch Me, that came from a broadcast of The Smothers Brothers show in 1969 which I saw on TV live when I was nine years old. My videotape is very worn now, from so much play. This is a great experience for all Doors fans.
