Ron1973 said:My sentiments exactly, Frank! At this point, I would settle for off the shelf syndication tape transfers. I know this was being syndicated in this area in the late 80's/early 90's but I haven't saw it since then on TV. I would desperately love to ditch my DVD's in favor of an official release.
As for our "new" poster who claims there are scans of the show, I call pooey. If the case was that they were afraid to give us new HD transfers, nothing would be HD from Universal. Netflix is offering Quincy, M.E., Emergency!, The A-Team and other shows in a very stunning HD transfer.
The problem with B.J. and the Bear is the fact that no one has saw it in probably 20+ years. It's been out of syndication since the 90's I believe; if someone can correct me on that, feel free to do so! Unless you get a ME-TV or someone of that nature to pay for transfers, we're sunk I'm afraid.
I can't speak for B.J. (last time I remember seeing it was on basic cable in the mid '80s), but The Misadventures of Sheriff Lobo was apparently on either Goodlife or RTV in recent years, as I recall seeing it in the "shows list" of one of those two websites.
So, if transfers don't exist of B.J., there should at least be some of Lobo floating around.
I actually have three off-air recordings (the original NBC run) of second-season Lobo (with original commercials) that I found on some old VHS tapes for a buck apiece at a flea market!
