For a while now I've been trying to track down an obscure late-1970s TV show that I vaguely remember. I don't recall the title, but I think the show was syndicated and shown by local stations in empty weekend afternoon slots.
The story was Tolkienesque (or D&Desque), about an ever-growing fellowship of odd characters who come together during the course of a Quest. Costumes and SFX were cheap and cheesy. Aerial shots of the group marching across the landscape. Does that ring a bell with anybody?
