I've seen that brought up by others in the past in various social media places. Never confirmed officially. I believe someone claimed they spoke to a person who works at CBS/Paramount or whoever owned the catalogue before them and they confirmed it. I think at some point also it was listed on some official website as available for syndication, along with the other Bing Crosby Productions, but that could of been an error. Honestly, it would make sense. I feel like these smaller less known production companies were more likely to pay to preserve their programs, like Dan Curtis Productions or Colgate-Palmolive.
I would imagine though if somehow it did exist, it was probably saved on the same reels The Doctors were saved on, and from what Retro TV said it was a HUGE process to digitize those episodes for rebroadcasting. They could only do a few a day, and sadly the longer the reels sit, the more damaged they become, so it's kind of a race against time to save them. Apparently there is only one person in the whole United States who can fix any damaged reels, and again they claim that takes forever. It would be fantastic if it were true though, and they somehow were re-aired some day! Would be a great day for classic soap fans!
