I’m the guy who coughed up 100 pounds and bought the DVDs and then ripped and released them into the wild.

You can find them on various p2p sites and applications.

Tim was actually rather pleased that someone did it. Kinda surprised me.

And Take 5 is a great theme song. I’ve thought about this show a lot since the 90’s and used the name for my blog about how I come up with my design ideas. Small world..

My faves were the fax machine and the vacuum cleaner…on the former, just the notion of how this was all figured out, and how it could be reproduced in a field was awesome; on the latter, I continue not to really understand how exactly my stuff flies through the motor without killing it. Anyway, now that I’ve grabbed all the QuickTime files, I’m pretty sure there are a few episodes I’ve missed!

I also really enjoyed the season-ending art bits, like the TV robot. That image (above) is burned on my brain. :)

Oh, wow! I used to cut short my other activities to watch TSLOM on its double-billing with Movie Magic. They were so well-done, and I too pined for the episodes once Discovery stopped airing them. I actually got a full set a few months ago from Google video, so that’s another option for anyone interested. Did you have a ‘favorite’ (’favourite?’) episode? The human sewing machine sticks in my mind, for reasons unknown…
