1980's American Bandstand episodes (original, first-run on ABC) - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Craig_The_Eagle · 06-25-2003, 12:05 PM

I have just started collecting old 1980's American Bandstand episodes. No, I am not referrring to the "Best of American Bandstand" episodes which aired on VH1 as late as 1999; these are the first-run, original episodes which aired originally on ABC. To be specific, I am looking for episodes between November 1982 and September 1986 or any episodes during its syndicated season.

I am asking this because, opinionatively, in its waning years, Bandstand was one of my fave programs as a kid. Thus, I am asking all who are registered on "sitcomsonline" if they or someone they know has the following Bandstand episodes (Reminder: I would like to have the original episodes aired on ABC; with or without commercials is inconsequential.). Here is the list:
