Cool show!, 11 August 2001
Author: Jay Stuler (stuler.1@osu.edu) from Ohio

This was a cool show! I'm surprised it didn't last longer, I mean this seems like perfect fare for the early '80s, with Indiana Jones and all. I guess it was a big hit with kids, but not so much with adults. It was awesome to me, but then I was only 9 at the time, so what did I know??
