Yes, but don't we all want to relive it!?, 27 June 2004
Author: net_virgin

As a current computer geek myself, how I would love to have the complete, albeit shortlived, season brought to DVD.

Let's have a complete automan experience, so we can re-experience this not-often (if ever) repeated scifi gem from (well at least my) childhood.

With the about to be released Knight Rider series 1 on DVD, and Airworf selected episodes, hopefully it can't be long before we get other great 80's shows.

please let us have a complete Automan on DVD too?

All in favour say 'Aye'!
