Ya know, I loved that show when it was on but, only saw the episodes a few times then, nothing for the past 20 years or so. Methinks a reminder is needed. I would like to get the DVD's if they're available.

Tom, you're right about the Eagle -- the simplicity of the design is what amazed me and it would be an excellent model for NASA to consider. But, they've got to come up with a workable propulsion system first. The present hydrogen / oxygen fuel system is for the birds.
