I knew this TV show existed ... it goes back to one of my earliest childhood memories. (I was only 6 when it was on TV.) The only memory I had of this show was the golden medallion that he would hold up to the sun to get his power. I was too young to know who any of the actors were and I couldn't remember the name of the show. And no one I knew had ever heard of it. So finally ... after all these years, it's awesome to see this intro ... proving this show was real and not my imagination. :)
