A good quality version of the "VR.5" tv series from 1995. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VR.5

It's a TV show about virtual reality and has peak 90's aesthetic. They shot the scenes in "virtual reality"on black and white film and colorized them manually afterwards to create a very distinct and vibrant look. That must've been so much hard work.

Sadly, there is only a 240p VHS rip with extremely terrible quality out there. I've always wanted to watch the whole thing, but it's too degraded to enjoy like this.

Your potato version is on Archive. There is one result in the Bay here but size indicates it's likely the same and it says VHSRip. I watched a couple minutes.. holy TV stars of today lol

I do see it on a private tracker but it may be the VHS rip you referred too. I pasted the S01 rip info here in case it might be a quality your looking for: https://pastebin.com/m2cuwEK4

The one I saw was about 1.25GB. Eps average around 100MB. Thanks for the effort!

Definitely different then. These eps are right around 3GB and total for the season is about 37GB.

You might have a good one! The show certainly has a campy Canadian feel. Hopefully it helps our poster!
