A friend of mine worked on this series, and it would be a joy to surprise her with this; does anyone have any episodes for trade? Comment, PM, or email, and hopefully we can work something out!

I also have a gigantic collection of hard-to-get Broadway audio bootlegs (especially of the pre-1980 era) and a nice array of rare Pre-Code (1930-1934) films with which I'm happy to trade!

Reruns of “On the Rocks” were shown on ch 33 WBFS Miami when it officially signed on in 1984. Not sure if it was shown any more recently than that anywhere.

ABC used to plug back-to-back “Barney Miller” and “On the Rocks” as…..”Funny cops, funny robbers.”

I remember having 1 episode back in 2004 when I was a tape trader and the quality was so bad.
