Fun Research Project

So I've been helping hubby-Eric with a little research project. It seems that he's gotten requests from his Wizard of Oz page for the dates when The Wizard of Oz was on TV.

He's got an impressive list already, and we're only missing a few dates. We think that it didn't air at all in 1992, and maybe not in 1995. If that's the case, then the only air date we are missing in 1997 (possibly Fall 1996).

Let me tell you where we've looked. We hunted through the microfilm archives of The Seattle Times at the Bellevue Library. Then we got the bright idea to do some serious Google searching, and found a couple of dates from Usenet. We checked the imdb, and we also did a search for the Neilsen Ratings, but didn't find a useful archive.

If you have any knowledge of when The Wizard of Oz may have aired in 1997 (or late 1996), and if it aired in 1992 or 1995, could you PLEASE let us know? We feel like we're so close... and yet so far... so far...
