Subject: 70s-80s television show
I want to find out the name of a television series that ran in the late 70s or early 80s. The premise was that a junkman built a spaceship and had a crew of three (two guys and a female astronaut) and they flew into space to retrieve old satellites and such. In the opening the words " A junkman's dream to go to the moon." were said. PLEASE HELP
Subject: "Salvage 1"
It was called "Salvage 1" and starred Andy Griffith. I watched that show when I was a kid. Cool show! I wonder if anyone is showing reruns?

I remember it! This was one of the few shows that I watched, so naturally it was canned after a brief run. The name was either Salvage or Salvage One, can't remember which. I do remember that it starred Andy Griffith and Joel Higgins, who would later play Ricky Schroeder's dad on Silver Spoons.
