[QUOTE="Daniel Avery, post: 366411, member: 27"] There was a large chunk of EON episodes that were "semi-lost" (out there, just not readily available on YT) from the period of approximately June-October 1981. Apparently Mark Arnold (the actor who played Gavin Wylie in that period) had kept recordings of the episodes and gave them to a Youtuber to upload. So I've been having a ball, since there are a lot of cool plots/events I'd always wanted to see, but had only heard about. I won't spoil any of the plot details, but there was a two-episode plot point that I think we all find amusing here in 2023. Raven was trying to dig up some info on a plane crash that had occurred three years before. She invited Nancy Karr to lunch for advice on how to do such research. Nancy is of course the town's investigative reporter. She says the only way to find out anything would be to go to the office and go through old copies of the paper from the time period of the crash to read the stories. The reporters may have done some cross-referencing on the names of the people on board the plane, so their notes might also be in the boxes. Raven is happy and of course asks Nancy to do it for her [I](that's so Raven[/I]). Sure enough, Nancy calls her the next episode to tell her the info she needed, though I think it was the next day (not an afternoon). So I'm sitting there thinking [I]Man, if 1981 Nancy had 2023 Google, all she would have to do is type in the date, "plane crash" and the names of the two men Raven asked about to get all the plot information she needed in [B]two seconds[/B] rather than[B] two days.[/B] [/I] Or better still, she could have gotten Raven to do her own dirty work.
