I predict that ONE DAY, we will all be able to look into a TV screen device, using a typewriter device, and retrieve stored video from past TV shows.

I'm afraid this is all I have. I found it on an old VHS tape while cleaning out a cupboard. I'd also love to see this series again.

They may have copies."
