    I remember that from when I was five. It's hard to think that was 25 years ago. It was ahead of it's time. I can remember that on the 8 o'clock movies right after Fraggle Rock.

    That was great. Always enjoyed it. :) What's it like now? I don't even know. Must not be very memorable.

    Man oh man. That was a cool theme song.

    so epic.

    I remember a long time ago watching how they made it with a crazy detailed model city.

    man, that brings back memories of our first ugly ass beige cable 'remote' that was wired to the TV with the row of push buttons and then getting the newer sleaker black model....

    Back then a movie on TV uncut, just out of the theaters was a big deal.
