The show has been talked about here before but I don't know if many knew it was released on on demand DVD

The link shows the episode Moonrock

The preview lasts for today.

Bob Justman (Star Trek) produced much of the series.

I was able to snag a copy for a few bucks less on Ebay and it's on it's way. Only seen one episode of it.

Loved it as a kid and hope i can afford to get it soon.

[HardyGirl]

Never heard of it, but it looks pretty cool!

[Earth 2 Chris]

I know Hugh O'Brian from "The Shootist", and I know he was Wyatt Earp on the TV series. This does look interesting.

Just watched it and it's great! But yeah, it's pricey!

[mego73]

Yeah Manufacture on demand DVD always seems pricier. I snagged it on Ebay for $37 shipped which is more what I am used to paying for a set this size.

They used to run the pilot movie frequently on a local station here when I was a kid and I always made it a point to watch it when I could. I have no recollection of the series at all, which is weird because (from the movie, anyway) it was exactly the kind of show I loved.

Buzz Meredith co-stars? I'm in.

Link isn't working right for me. Which show is it?

link expired last night

Mine came today. They seem to be on pressed discs instead of DVD-R media. Just like Shazam, I think they do the first batch pressed and when that runs out then they go to recordable DVD.

If only this show came a few years later. I was watching Mr. Rogers and Sesame Street when these were done.

Synopsis:
Hugh O'Brian, Doug McClure and Tony Franciosa rotate leads as elite high tech espionage operatives for Probe Division of World Securities Corporation in this spy-sensational SF-flavored actioner from Leslie Stevens (creator, The Outer Limits) and Robert Justman (Producer and one of the guiding lights of Star Trek and Star Trek: The Next Generation). Each agent, dubbed a "Probe", is wired for worldwide surveillance thanks to a Scanner (miniature video camera) and dental/ear implant. Tracking their telemetry and giving real-time mission advice is a team of specialists at Probe Control directed by the brilliant, irascible V.C.R. Cameron (Burgess Meredith). O'Brian plays Lockwood, Probe One, an ex-astronaut. McClure plays CR Grover, Standby Probe, brilliant beachcomber goofball. Franciosa plays Nick Bianco, Omega Probe, a street savvy ex-NYC cop tasked with organized crime capers. The Probes hunt stolen moon rocks, missing agents, a deadly Probe defector and more alongside special guest luminaries like Stefanie Powers, Bill Bixby, Mary Ann Mobley, Sebastian Cabot, Barbara Feldon, Mel Ferrer and Joanna Cameron. Three very different agents, one very out-of-this-world show.
