I know the NAACP and other groups made a big stink about this show being stereotypical and all, and a lot of networks got scared and stopped airing this. Has this show been shown on any TV station in the last 20 years or so that anybody knows about????

Not that I know of. I know that a documentary of the show was aired back in the early 80's and I think some clips were shown too. I bought a vhs copy of a few episodes last weekend for 50 cents. lol I don't see anything wrong with the show. I don't think it was racist. It's better than most of the UPN comedies that aired during the last decade.

I think the chances of someone airing this are slim considering the lack of interest in 50's shows, and the fact that the NAACP is still around.

There's plenty of interest in this one being shown especially the 7 episodes that are not among the ones that have been floating around in trading circles for past 20 years or so.
