320.0. "Bakersfield PD" by WARNUT::FIDDLERM (Higher than the Sun) Fri Dec 02 1994 22:57

    HI - In the UK this series is currently going out on C4 on thursday
    evenings.  I'm really enojoying it - its very funny in an understated
    way.  Does anyone know if there is more than one series of this, or if
    it was popular in the US?  It reminds me of another funny show we got
    called 'Dream On', although we only got one season of that, so I guess
    that wasn't too popular.
    
    
    Thanks!

    Mike,
    
    Bakersfield was only on one season, and I think it was cancelled. I
    liked it a lot. Dream On is now a Pay Cable (Showtime I think) show.
    but it's been on for 5 seasons or so. I was able to get it for 1 season
    and I enjoyed that too.

    But is seems to be moving to FOX.  I think this means a little less 
    skin.

    Perhaps they're doing edited repeats.

    No, they film 2 versions which would allow them to sell it into
    syndication when enough episodes are in the can. They've hit that point
    and they're the episodes you're seeing.
