More than fifty half-hour TV shows were produced by volunteers over a period of nine years with the assistance of Access Los Altos at Foothill College. Shows have been aired on Channel 26, and copies are available for viewing at the Los Altos Library. Nan Geschke produced nearly all the shows; she and a number of others appeared as hosts. A list of the Foothill-taped shows follows.
During 2001-02, the show is temporarily taping at KMVT Mountain View while the City of Los Altos renegotiates its cable contract.
