It originally screened on Channel 9 in Adelaide - Saturday mornings during Hey Hey It's Saturday (no, not the Daryl Somers / Ossie Ostrich show that most people would know, the Robby Roenfeldt / Winky Dink cartoon variety show).
I remember watching the first episode - More Than Meets The Eye, thinking 'how cool is this!' and recorded the last half of the episode on BETA to watch over and over again.
