What was your fav episode and what happened on the finale?

[deleted]

My favourite episode was "Home For Christmas".
But there were so many other episodes I loved too. :)

Thom,

Thanks for posting & thanks so much for being a part of such a wonderful show. :)
So many fans are hoping for the dvd release.
All the very best to you & your family.

Yes, some of my favorites were "Home for Christmas", "Baxter and the Boz", and the episode where Boz shoots a young man who had wounded Cody, then has to come to grip with evidence that he may have been innocent of the charges.

Here's a link to TV Tome's episodes guide to "Riptide".

Dear Thom,

if this is not a fake post by a crazy fan - it´s really amazing and fantastic to read a message from you here!!! I liked "Riptide" so much I even recorded it on music cassettes in the age of perhaps 9 years! And of course as kids we played some scenes the next day or at least talked about them. Now I´m 30 years old and hopefully the DVD release will come to Germany soon, too.

What I absolutely can´t understand: why the hell didn´t come the DVD release much earlier? There are shiploads of fan sites in the net: http://www.wunschliste.de/links.pl?s=1892

There is even a whole episode written down by a fan to find: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/312962/1

It´s the same with other shows e.g. "The Fall Guy". The media companies must be stupid they don´t see the potential of their old shows. I mean - the posting of the woman about her 14 year old daughter beneath shows it clearly: the shows were just so great that even todays´ teenagers are caught by it! So what does it mean? The old shows´ audience contains both teens and adults. @ the media companies: are you blind - you don´t wanna earn money???

Best wishes from Berlin and let the good times roll!

Jens.

mail-2752, if this is really the actor who played Murray Bozinsky, it is so great to you took time to write...Riptide was one of my absolute favorite shows while I was in high school. I work in film/video now, but not in Hollywood, in Colorado...I just bought the first season on DVD last year and boy talk about bringing back great memories..In fact, I even tried to look like the guys, even buying deck shoes, shirts, etc...

one question I'd always wanted to know, since I couldn't find them, was, what brand of jeans did Cody/Nick wear on the series ????..Levi's ????

mail-2752 (Thom Bray)...thanks for posting...I just bought the first season on DVD and boy did it bring back memories...I work in film/video now as a Director of Photography, watching those episodes brought back alot of great memories from my time in high school....I was wondering about the wardrobe, what type of jeans did Perry/Joe wear on the show (???)...Levi's or custom made brand used in the show ????...I had always wondered since I tried my best to copy the shirts, deck shoes in the show....

It's fun reading your memories of a show that was such a large part of my life. To tell the truth, I don't really remember the plots of many of the shows--they all kind of blended into each other when we were shooting. Highlights for me were working with Steve Allen (Episode Name?) and John Astin (Baxter and the Boz, I think.) Anyway, I'd enjoy seeing the show come out on DVD so my kids can watch it with me. My son was born during the final season.

Regards,

Thom Bray

Hello Thom, I'm a huge Riptide fan, and remember those exact episodes...I loved the scene with you/Steve Allen color commentated on the baseball game, it was great....

I did want to ask you a question....What brand name jeans were worn by Cody/Nick on the show ????..were they custom or brand name ???..I loved the wardrobe and just always wanted to know...???

I work in Film/TV now, so details like that I'm used too, since I just bought the first season on DVD last year....

thanks,
