Notes
|
|
|
|
1. The date given is the first airing date on NBC. During the first season,
|
|
the stories aired on Sundays, except for one special on a Tuesday night.
|
|
During the second season, the stories were first aired on Monday nights,
|
|
with one special on a Friday. The Monday time-slot started on 6/30/87,
|
|
during reruns. But, starting with story 41, the stories were moved to
|
|
Friday nights.
|
|
|
|
2. The air time shown is based on the Central Time zone.
|
|
|
|
3. The time given is edited length, from beginning of the opening to the
|
|
final note of the Universal ending, without commercials.
|
|
|
|
4. The opening theme music was changed the first time, starting 11/03/85.
|
|
The opening theme music was again changed on 6/8/86 (possibly 6/1/86).
|
|
This time the music doesn't exactly sync, or time, with the visual opening.
|
|
On 6/15/86, the theme music reverted to what it was the second time.
|
|
|
|
5. During the second season, NBC started airing previews of the show
|
|
before the show started. But, the preview for story 37 was actually the
|
|
preview for story 38.
|
|
|
|
6. Story 32 was to have aired the week of Halloween (11/27/86, 7:00).
|
|
But the postponed, by rain, last game of the World Series prempted it.
|
|
|
|
7. The title sequence was changed on 1/19/87. The co-starring list was shown
|
|
during the opening credits. This format change only lasted for the one story.
|
|
|
|
8. The TV Guide that can be seen in the story "Blue Man Down" is the
|
|
Aug 30-Sep 5, 1986, issue. The cover story is: Help For Dallas EXPLORING
|
|
THE MYSTERY OF BOBBY'S RETURN. In the story "Such Interesting Neighbors",
|
|
the TV Guide looked like an issue with a cover picture of Jerry Lewis.
|
|
The cover date is unknown, but it was before March 16, 1985.
|
|
|
|
9. The second season was to have 22 stories, making a total of 46.
|
|
But Amblin Entertainment shut down production. One story is still due NBC.
|
|
Two possible titles for this story are "Dream Girl" and "Trapped".
|
|
|
|
10. All stories are in stereo and were aired in stereo.
