All this talk of DVD boxsets and our favourite bad movies got thinking about California Dreams...anyone remember it? It was a Saved-By-The-Bell type sitcom about a highschool garage band The Dreams?

I was wondering if anyone knew where I could get it on DVD or anywhere I could find it really?
 
I used to heart that show! I felt bad for Sly cause he was always picked on, but he was kind of a jerk at the same time.

But, no, I have no idea where you can get the DVDs. I found the CD on Amazon, though.
 
Ooh, USA High! I used to love that show! I had a huge crush on Jackson, lol. I remember California Dreams, but the cast and characters are a blurr to me!

Jackson totally stole one of Jakes songs! Remember 'Too Much to Dream?'...thats a Jake Summers original!
The DVDs haven't been released. I freaking loved that show. Along with USA High. They need to release those.

Seriously 🙁...That is the one show that for some reason I really want to watch right now! I still sing all the songs...well the ones i can remember anyway.

A whole lotta love I'm guessing? Hehe ;)
Oh, man!
I used to watch California Dreams after school, everyday. It's such a lame show.
I always found it really funny that the badass biker kid wanted to be in a soft-rock band with a bunch of lame surfers and whatnot.

Oh it was utterly shite...but in that really great way:)
This was a lame show but in a totally good way. Sly always used to amuse me...though Tiff drove me INSANE.
I'm afraid they've never been released on DVD but there is a site...an Angelfire extension site where you can download all the episodes for free. I'll try and find it again for you

(Plus, this show has a Buffyverse connection- Kristine Sutherland guest starred as a love interest for Tiff's Dad. I think her name was Ariel. I remember that because the name instantly made me think of The Little Mermaid. Haha)

EDIT: I found the link. It doesn't have as many episodes as it used to but still.

(It was freewebs not angelfire. Haha)

You have no idea how much I love you right now!
I used to run home from my horseriding lessons on Saturday mornings to make sure I got home in time to crash on the couch and watch this show 🙂 oh the good old days...
and who can resist the theme song:
Surf dudes with attitudes (Kinda groovy)
Laid back moods
Sky above, sand below (Good vibrations)
Feelin' mellow
Don't wake me up
Don't wanna stop

(Don't wake me up)
Don't wake me up if I'm dreaming (California Dreams)
Just let me lay here in the sun
Until my dream is done

Palm trees, ocean breeze (Let's go cruising)
You and me
Salt air, sun bleached hair (Endless summer)
Take me there

Won't let it go
Want more and more

Noise and confusion
Tough times in the neighborhood
Let me keep my illusion
These dreams are good (guitar solo)

heeheee!

dang it now I'm humming the song to myself.
Slayerfest 99 agrees: dang it now I'm humming the song to myself.
anytime at all, if a song jumps in my head for no reason, it's ALWAYS this one. It's just catchy as heck.

I totally agree. But it's the kind of catch for me where I can only remember every other line! haha
