Some ideas to be considered for inclusion into this article: At 18 years, this show has most American TV series beat, as far as longest running. Is this show considered to be, what we Americans call a "soap opera?" Did this show run during the afternoon? Or at Night? In America, we've had daytime Soap operas that have ran for 40 to 50 years. But majority of television production here in America is done for nighttime television. Most nighttime shows are luck to go four or five years, and very few get a 10 to 12 year run.

Not exactly a soap opera. Canadian TV shows, especially the earlier stuff doesn't always fit in categories that well. This was an evening family show. I remember it being on Sunday nights.

Beachcombers on Vision TV

Vision TV has been showing the episodes since September 1st, 2009. I'm still waiting to see the series on DVD (c'mon CBC).24.68.50.33 (talk) 20:54, 6 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

CBC won't allow the first 10 seasons to be shown?

Why not; some political correct bullshit? Imagine if the BBC did that with some of their shows from the same era! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.1.156.204 (talk) 10:50, 18 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
