    Thanks Gary. That was very cool of you to help out. It's been nearly 30 years since I've seen the ep so I hope it holds up!
    Take care.

    ..And if one of your local tv station's carries the Retro TV Network on one of it's digital sub channels, Retro airs Buck and old Galactica weekly Saturday nights.

    I get that station but unfortunately the picture quality sucks. It looks worse than an old vhs tape for some reason. I tried to watch Magnum P.I. today and it was really blurry.

    ^^Must be that particular station. The picture quality of the subchannel for my station is equal to the analog cable version of the 'parent' tv station. The prints of most of the Universal shows they run are what I'd label as basic cable network quality. You could try emailing your local station and complain.

    What kills me about RTV is that the write ups for each episode are always the same.

    Battlestar Galactica
    Humans flee opression by a race of killer machines.

    Magnum PI
    Thomas Magnum investigates crimes in Hawaii.

    Those aren't exact quotes, but you get the point. No details, not even any episode titles. It's annoying.

    Wish they'd get a bit more professional.
