Here in Ireland back in 1978 I watched this series on a Friday afternoon after finishing school for the week. So I was usually in a good mood to start with! I loved the idea of an island off the California coast and the rescue part created excitement aplenty while the warm sunshine factor was very appealing for a kid from cloudy Dublin! While the scenery obviously helped too. I remember one episode with a sub plot about a male wanting to participate in a beauty contest claiming sexual equality! Another standout episode was where the whole island had a power outage and in one scene there was debate over how long it would last and the crew decided to take bets on it. The secretary enters at the last moment and places her bet and guesses about 5 seconds and wins as she had already got the message on the phone! Certainly great memories and I was disappointed that there wasn't a 2nd season at least. The cast list of actors is also impressive.
