Mysterious Cities of Gold!
I grew up watching the thing, and to this day, it still blows my mind how good it is. It aged extremely well. (Well, apart from Mendoza's hair, I guess...)
For years, I impatiently waited for its reruns. It played every two years like clockwork, between 1984 and the late 90s. Then I was stuck when the clockwork broke down. I had my old tapes, but they looked like crap. Plus, my VCR started eating them (I guess it likes MCG too!).
But DVDs eventually came to my rescue. Hurray! I now am the proud owner of own both the region 1 and 2 sets and watch them every year. After all, if we want those older series to come out on DVD, we have to show there is a demand for them. Well, the good ones...
Besides, I still haven't totally lost hope that the long spoken about sequel will someday be made. But I'm not holding my breath. *sigh*
