I remeber it! Gary Ganu. No ganus is good ganus with Gary Ganu.

I've seen bootleg collections of all the episodes on DVD-Rs at sci-fi and horror cons. Didn't buy it as I'm not that big a fan of the show though.

I've got a copy of this DVD is is from a VHS release of the show that includes Mark Hamil as a special guest.  It brought back memories.  I completely forgot about it until I got the DVD and I watched it almost everyday.  Remember the Black guy had this little box that he played cartoons on.  I remember I always wanted that thing!  Great show!

I don't think it's been "officially" released on DVD yet.  It's a shame, that was a great show that deserves a DVD release.  That, Reading Rainbow, The Electric Company, and 321 Contact would all be really cool to see on DVD.

I remember seeing the into to the show but never really watched it myself. At least where I lived it was shown way too early (it was still dark out).

I remember the woman had a guitar that was made to look like some hard-rock guitar, but she strummed it like Joan Baez.

"It's the Great Space Coaster, get on board!
On the Great Space Coaster, we'll explore...
Try the ride, fast & free to a place where dreams fly fast & free.
With new friends & new things ot see, we'll spin you through the galaxy!"

(Repeat 1st 2 lines)

"Get on board, step inside. Soarin' through a magic ride.
Rollin' towards the other side, where only rainbows hide.....
On the Great Space Coaster, get on board, on the Great Space Coaster.....off we go!!!"

-No, I don't have a clue. 8)
