I’d love to trade for pilot to the Robert Guillaume Show. April 5 1989.

Guillaume starred as a single dad with two children who begins an interracial relationship with Ann (Wendy Phillips), a white woman who has a daughter of her own.

I just need the pilot.

According to Guillaume's autobiography, he conceived the series with the intent of exploring racial complexities in a family situation in a comedic way, but was warned by ABC that the American public needed time to get used to the idea of an interracial romance. Guillaume maintained that ABC deliberately sabotaged the series by airing episodes out of order and showed a kiss between Edward and Ann on the second episode instead of the intended eighth. The series was soon canceled lasting only thirteen episodes.[1

It's on iOffer. Two different people are selling it there. What is pretty much unavailable (2 episodes are on YouTube, and some guy is selling 3 episodes for a ridiculous price) is his follow up, Pacific Station

Thanks. They both have 12 episode sets. One listing claimed guides were wrong to list a separate pilot and Ep 2 Hello Again is actually the pilot. Maybe there is no 13th episode.
