Where can I find Maniac Mansion the T.V. series?

Hooloovoo

I got Maniac Mansion for Christmas and on the cart it said watch the T.V. show so I go to youtube first but nothing. I search some more on google but I can't find it on the internet. Is it out there? Are there other little known shows based on video games? I look at my other Christmas present (all three castlevanias) and think why isn't this a show?

I didn't know maniac mansion was made into a tv show, I'd also be interested to know if it exists. May have just been one of the kooky things the developers added to the packaging as a joke?

Oh it exists...

There is a petition to bring it to DVD but it will need more then 500 signatures for that to happen.

Youtube was the first place I looked. It's cool to see the intro but I'm looking for full episodes.

Wow, I was expecting a cartoon. Gotta love that theme music! It sounds like the intro to thirtysomething, or something...

I remember seeing The Family Channel promos that were run on the UHF quasi-networks (philly 57, which became part of the UPN, and now god knows what) and being pissed that I didn't have cable and could never watch it. I loved the Lucasarts game. Although from the looks of the wiki page, I didn't miss much - it didn't bear much resemblance and was more like a sillier version of Full House than anything.
