I remember watching this when it first came on to TV. It was created (I think) as a direct result of the success of the film War Games. I think it only ran for one or two series. It looks so old now.

Oh, yeah, I remember this oldie. It wasn't very good. The kids were supposed to be super smart, but whoever the writers and producers were, they weren't up to the task of making a smart, entertaining show. It was more like Murder She Wrote and Simon & Simon than WarGames unfortunately.

Well, it's still a trip down memory lane. The 80's had some great TV, and some that was just out there. Personally, for me in 1983, I watched the A-Team or Knight Rider, Magnum, P.I., Cheers or even Family Ties.
CBS had a good lineup on Thursday, but NBC owned Wednesday nights back then, with Real People, Facts of Life and Family Ties. Whiz Kids didn't really have much of a chance, and then they moved it to Saturday to die.
