OMGOMGOMG!!! Someone else who has heard of this series!!!

I haven't seen this show since I watched it on Betamax!!!

I loved it back then... I wonder whether it's aged well.

I am downright scary when it comes to blink-and-you-miss-it genre telly.

So-so. The chemistry between the leads is still adorable, but in retrospect I'm surprised that they got away with a line like "Bring your secretary, I want to write something sexist on her cast."

And like any show of the era, the science is now painfully vintage, be it Remington Steele flailing around to find a public telephone or Austin James taking a telephone handset off its cradle and dropping it onto a modem the size of a breadbox.

But the mysteries - man, the ball lightening episode STILL rocks!

Sci-fi sadly because we didn't have a VCR when it originally aired.

I have original broadcasts somewhere, but it's on beta. And none of my machines work any more...

I was randomly surfing LJ when I saw your post. I loved Probe dearly when it was on.

Thank you for the links.
