Yep I remember Salvage 1:
Once upon a time, a junkman had a dream... "I'm gonna build a spaceship, go to the moon, salvage all the junk that's up there, bring it back and sell it."
So he put together a team. An ex-astronaut...a fuel expert...they built a rocket ship...
And they went to the moon. Who knows what they'll do next?
Humm, I thought it was much older then 1979 but that's what Salvage 1 web site says. As I recall it did not last but a few episodes, 19 to be exact.
How about this older one: It's About Time
It's about time; it's about space, about strange people in the strangest place.
