I am not Jynjyr, but Pandora's Clock is out on DVD. Past the Bleachers and Ordinary Heroes are only out on VHS that I know of. Try Amazon.com or www.rdanderson.com. Anything bought through rdanderson.com helps supports the site. I just checked. She has both Ordinary Heroes and Past the Bleachers listed in the store.

It's a shame that many of those who write for 'the business' disparage Science Fiction. The image of a 'Sci-Fi Fan' is still a geek with tape on their glasses, a pocketfull of pens, and living in the basement at their parent's house. (OK, maybe not that harsh but, not far off).
EXCUSE ME!! We are the 20's, 30's, 40's something, successful professionals who, if they weren't embarrassed to admit it (geek label), would make up a significant portion of the population.
Yes, MacGyver was / is worldwide. It's impressive to have a 7 year run and your (character's) name in the dictionary. (MacGyver can also be used as a verb meaning to fix, repair, rig, solve, build, invent, or otherwise save the day, as MacGyver did. - Wickpedia)
Stargate SG-1 is also world wide. But, because it's "Sci-Fi", it's not important.
Hey Guys! Think about this: the Sci-Fi 'geeks' of the 70's and 80's are the 'gee-whiz' scientists of today.

"What size tree is your husband cutting down?" He almost got that chainsaw put where chainsaws aren't supposed to go. I'll be shopping elsewhere.
