[Groop]Groo appearance in Bloopers...

[Gary Grossmann]

Well, I spoke to the "media archives" guy at Dick Clark Productions.  He
said there were 41 episodes the first two years that are now typically shown
in 82 half hour installments.  He also said that he was pretty sure Sergio
retained the rights to the cartoons and they pay him every time some station
licenses the shows.

And (no surprise) he also said they are NOT set up to rent the shows to
individuals or sell episodes.  he said no one is showing them now, but I
should keep my eyes open.  I know I've probably blown some opportunities
over the years to record the shows off some cable station, but that's what
happens when you're not dessesbo 24/7(! I know it's hard to believe.)

Take care -Gary G.
