Title: "Voyagers" TV Show (1982) NBC
Post by: Dangelus on April 11, 2011, 08:56:09 AM
Anybody ever see this?

Looks like it ran from 1982-83 for 20 episodes. I've just come across it and thinking of giving it a watch.

Any opinions?

Not horrible, but not what you could call terrific. Just remember, it was made in the very eary 80's and it shows! Give it a shot I say...

I might do. I like the time travel aspect.

Thanks.

I loved this show when it was on and would enjoy watching it with my daughter.  Lead actor was killed by a prop gun as I recall.  Where did you come across it?

It is available for streaming from StageVU.  I found it while I was browsing the site. Be aware they aren't too strict on the legitimacy of their content if you know what I mean.

It was a fun series.. got to meet the lead actor a few weeks before he shot himself with a prop guy and died... sad story.

Now that I'm not running short of time on my lunch break I see that Netflix has it as well, just not streamable.

Fun little TV series.  It was sad about the lead actor (he went to the same college I did, MSU).  I love the Omni, time travel prop from that series.

Before "V" stood for "visitors"...

I remember watching it and enjoying it at the time, but, then again, I was 12.  I think it was the closest thing to Dr. Who in the states that aired before my bedtime.
