This series was originally broadcast in 1966 on Canadian television. In "Rocket Robin Hood", a distant ancestor of Medieval England's Robin fought for justice in the year 3000 A.D. The younger Hood made his home on Sherwood Asteroid, had his own band of Merry Space Men (many with the same names as the old Robin's English cohorts) and continued the quest to rob from the cosmic rich and give to the astro poor. Rocket Robin may have been a man of his technological age, jetting about in a custom rocket, but you wouldn't know it from his clothes. The new-fangled Robin kept the old-fangled Robin's retro sense of style, dressing in his trademarked green costume. He was even lucky enough to find a Maid Marian to impress with his swashbuckling skills, but also around was the dastardly Sheriff of N.O.T.T., who constantly tried to thwart Robin's do-gooder plans. The episode featured here is "Escape Into Reality".
