I don;t think you will be able to get episodes of Checking Episodes because the show only lasted a MONTH. The only Checking In Episode you may be able to get is the pilot which is a Jeffersons Episode.

Checking In was only on for 30days. I'm 378% sure no one hit the record button when that show was on in 81. The show is GONE FOREVER

That's right. 'Out All Night' starring Patti LaBelle was on for a short time and they showed reruns of that. Somebody has it recorded somewhere....even if it were on for 1 day.

But Checking In has never been aired no where since it was yanked offf the air. Remember only 4 episodes were made.

It doesn't matter. No where in history is anything made, put on air and not saved. Whether they show reruns or not, they are saved. Someone has it even if it were only one episode. It's called Museum of TV and Broadcasting. If you want you can go to New York and ask for whatever show or radio broadcast you want/it's like a library/ and you look it up and watch/listen to whatever you have chosen. Also they have a name for the preservation of films. Anything...I say, anything at all that is filmed is PRESERVED.

True by a TV Network or Museum. I know for a fact no one recorded Checking In 1981. But like you said it is saved. It's right in the CBS library-LOL

Lionel, whoever was playing him, was the second weakest character on The Jeffersons next to Jenny.

What is all this Mike Evans love all about? Lionel could have been played by anybody. He was ultimately not very important to the show.
