Last evening, while flipping around the channels, my wife stumbled across an arcade scene in an episode of "The Love Boat". She yelled to me as I was in another room...

"Honey, check it out, Space Invaders on TV!"

I saw a portion of scene in an arcade, and a Space Invaders cabinet, along with Omega Race, Star Castle, and Berzerk were clearly seen. There may have been others but I didn't catch the opening moments.

Turns out, this is from a 1986 episode of the Love Boat entitled "Second Banana".

It amused me that the man in the scene was depicted playing the Omega Race cabinet, but when they showed the game graphics, they showed Game Plan's Megatack!

I looked on You Tube last night to see if I could find the clip, but I turned up nothing...

Maybe somebody out there can post a clip here.

Kyle :cool:
 
what a bummer. I don't think they've ever released any seasons beyond season 5.

You can't even find online anywhere a DVD or files on season 9!

not on amazon, not on ebay, nowhere. so lame.

this tv series is so old, what's preventing them from releasing this???
 
Wish I could see this. There was a great arcade scene on YouTube from Chips but it's been removed.
 
Here's the thread. You can see the episode on the dead YouTube link.
