Additional Comments: I started a Facebook group for the campaign to get classic episodes of GL online. There's an official GL group at Facebook that has 14,283 fans (I make 14,284), and I posted there about the group, and also started the group about the campaign for the classic episodes.
Can you imagine the impact that all 14,284 people who belong to the official GL group would have if we all lobbied Hulu and TeleNext for classic GL episodes? I don't know how many people were involved in the AW campaign, but I don't think it was anywhere near that many.

Hope to see you there!

Message: I know videotape didn't come around until the 1970s (I'm guessing), and many of the original live episodes are forever lost, but I do wish there was some way of having a library of the thousands of chronological episodes from the 1970s onward to watch.

Message: I am so glad you found the GL fansite on Facebook. I have been a fan on there for a few months....at one point they had a campaign to "save the light", and in reading the blogs and comments there, I believe there would be a lot of people who would want these classic episodes aired....also, next time you're on the Facebook page, take a peek at the fan photos--there is one of me there from 1983 with Michael O'Leary when we found the 4 musketeers taping in Central Park..another reason why I would love to see the episodes from at least that far back! Oh, and thank you for the great Youtube videos!
