Ever since I bought the Shazam DVD set, I have been on Cloud 9. I have done some research and I have found some inaccuracies with the listings on this website. For instance, Kerry MacLane and Ty Henderson were in the episode the Joyriders. Both of them were listed in a separate episodes, and I never saw them in those episodes. I wasn't sure if anyone noticed that. I don't have IMDB pro.

Also, I saw the episode the "Brain" starring Bif Warren. I didn't realize he died at such as young age. He was a solid actor with a promising career. I think he died at the young age of 39 or 40. David Gruner also died. He was in the episode Bitter Herbs.

I just recently watched "The Brain". I did not know the actor died young. How unfortunate.

Here's another piece of information about a guest star. The season 3 episode "Out of Focus" featured a young Andrew Stevens as a student filmmaker. Interestingly, Stevens actually did go on to become a prolific filmmaker himself. He has been a director, producer, actor, writer, and other various crew functions in quite a large number of movies.

However, the possibly unflattering part - depending on one's opinion - is in the type of films he has done. A number of his movies have been those cheap "erotic thriller" direct-to-video movies. Kind of a shame that mars the wholesomeness of Shazam. "Out of Focus" happens to be one of my favorite episodes.

Thanks for that bit of trivia about Andrew Stevens. I knew he became a film maker...but I never knew the films were of the "cheap erotic" type.

And yes, I agree, it does put "Out Of Focus" in a new light in 2014.
