I loved this show! I was 12 when it aired. As a previous reviewer stated, it got me hooked on history to the point that I minored in it at college.
I remember Rick Ely as being the primary character, but I had a huge crush on Philippe Forquet. His portrayal of General the Marquis de Lafayette was as dashing as I thought he would have been. (Minor trivia, Philippe Forquet was in a "Twice as Nice" shampoo commercial about this time frame.)
It lasted one short season, but stayed in my mind all these years. Seems like each episode lasted about 45 minutes.
Would love to get it on DVD. I wish more shows were on now days as interesting and entertaining as this one was.
