I taped the pilot movie and the two episodes that aired subsequently in 1987. The second episode either got erased or lost when I moved out of my parent's house. The third episode (the one in which Lazarus, Captain Justice's arch enemy, comes to the real world) may still be on one of the unmarked tapes in my basement. If I get the chance, I'll take a look around.

if u can find any

This was a really funny show, not the most intellectual of humor mind you

but it made me giggle

I cannot believe that Sci Fi doesnt pick it up for a short run, I mean the rights would be cheaper than a lot of shows they run and a lot of people would love to see it

As I thought, no sign of episode 2. (Or episode 1 for that matter, but I know I've got that somewhere.)

I did find my tape of episode 3. It seems to be in OK condition, but I'm not sure how it'll copy. (Been having a little trouble with our 2-deck VCR.)

Okay, I ran off a copy of that Return of Lazarus episode. (VHS)

It's certainly not the best quality print of any show I've ever seen, but it's pretty watchable.
