I didn't know any kid back then who didn't love it and watch it religiously. It was one of those adult shows parents could watch with kids and both would love, like Star Trek. <br /><br />But ABC buried it in terrible time slots and the series only lasted one season. <br /><br />And yeah, throughout history, what monster has been worse than government?Richard Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10239826441964023625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2601639312234106733.post-61780448270883055802015-08-09T22:18:56.993-04:002015-08-09T22:18:56.993-04:00I used to watch that show all the time.
Never occu...I used to watch that show all the time.<br />Never occurred to me that all the problems he had getting the story out was from the gumbermint.<br />How reading Ayn Rand Atlas Shrugged changed my views of the gubberment that I was serving in at the time.<br />Then Rush Limbaugh came along and that really opened my mind to the way I was being treated by the congress and other libturds at the time. While being at their beck and call to give up my life for what ever whim they came up with at what ever time they come up with it.<br />After that it became a hard time with dealing with the Navy and my fears of being homeless if I quit the Navy. The last six years in the Navy was fraught with many angry seas.<br />Heltau Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
