The Gospel Bill Show!!!!
Anyone else grow up watching this spectacular show?
For me, it's yet another show I hope will come to DVD someday.

Holy God in love became
Perfect man to bare my blame
On the Cross He took my sin
By His death I live again

I have a VHS tape or two from when our local Christian station had a marathon many years ago!
That, I think, was my totally favorite show in those days!

And sadly, they've no plans for real DVD releases... all they do is offer video tapes with a whopping TWO episodes on them for $20 a piece. It's a great show, but no way can I pay that much. I wish they'd release them all in seasons...
I remember in the REALLY early days they had like a studio audiance of kids and basically just threw pies in the face of "El Diablo" the whole time, and the show continuously matured, which I thought was cool... the puppet segments got fewer and fewer, and the gigantic talking dogs disappeared...

The Puppets and everything are still a part of what the church does for it's children's stuff. They included it in the show because it was common with the kids of their immediate audience. Once their fan base opened up, they slowly dropped it.
I saw somewhere that someone contacted Billy George Ministries about releasing DVD's and they said "they'd think about it."
