Retrogram #8728: The Summer Of ’87

The week of July 5th, 1987: A week picked by followers of theLogBook.com’s Facebook page! A week of orbital law enforcement, lycanthropy, astro-archaeology, and maybe even the devil himself. Travel back in prime time with us to the summer of ’87. (75:43) This episode has dropped early so it’s available for your holiday weekend road trip!

Right-click here and “save as”; if anyone burns a CD of this show, make sure to leave it in a portable CD player for future astro-archaeologists to discover in an abandoned building.

Werewolf: Pilot in the LogBook
Want to rent the set pieces from Voices In The Earth? You can! Still available from Modern Props: the main bridge station (see, Knowles didn’t beat it up too badly), another bridge control station, the giant five-foot-wide radar screen from the bridge, a slightly smaller radar console from the bridge, the wall panel from Knowles’ quarters, and – as seen in so many sci-fi shows and movies over the past 40 years – that tall vertical wall panel with a row of flashing horizontal lights. You know you want to.
Werewolf Pilot in the LogBook / watch it on YouTube
That Fort Smith, Arkansas Fox station actually has a fairly extensive Wikipedia entry, even if it showed up too late to air Werewolf. And yes, my very ’90s low-budget production work from that station can still be seen now.
What was the #1 song this week?

If you like Retrogram, you’ll dig Earl’s books about Doctor Who – VWORP!1 and VWORP!2 – and his first volume of a guide to Star Trek, WARP!1 – they’re in theLogBook.com Store!
