still searching for the pilot episode of the show "Cadets"
that aired on ABC on September 25th 1988.

(see screenshots taken from YT commercial)

it had both Soleil Moon Frye (Punky Brewster) and Jaleel White (Urkel from FM)

yet, I CAN'T FIND THIS ANYWHERE?

the only thing i found in the 9 years i've been searching for it,
is a very old (2003ish) listing on a dvdtrade site, that had a disc with this on it,
and a commercial on YT with a promo for it.

this is ABSOLUTELY LOST MEDIA!

if there is ANYONE who has the full episode in good watchable (highest) quality,
PLEASE UPLOAD IT TO ARCHIVE.ORG OR SOME OTHER HOST AND EITHER POST ABOUT IT HERE, OR PM ME THE DOWNLOAD LINK PLEASE.

Did you ever find it? I had recorded it off of television back in the day in some quality and rewatched it all throughout the 90s every once in a while. Sadly, all my tapes developed a white mold and I had to toss them. It was not the best show in the world, but I enjoyed it. It was definitely a kid’s sitcom and probably could have found a home on Disney Chanel or Nick a decade or two later. Perhaps it might have done better on Saturday night. They only aired the one episode pilot. I do not think there were any more episodes, and I think it only aired once. I miss that time when they would sort of unload pilots they did not pick up.

Either way, a BTS photo is neat. www.sitcomsonline.com/boards/showthread.php?t=417940
