Our Quest for the Gerbert VHS Tapes!
My friends and I have become obssesed with Gerbert VHS tapes. We are on a quest to collect them all through thrifting and other second hand means. As a tradition, we breakout a tape we haven't watched yet for special events like life milestones, new jobs, and Christmass. When I first created this website, we did not know much about how the Gerbert video ciriculum was relased. We had discovered that nither IMDb or The Movie Database had a list of episodes.
The only list we could find on wikipedia was for the episodes that aired, and these episode numbers did not match the numbers on our tapes. It was also missing the names of some of the tapes we had in our possession. I put up a list on this website that reflected the wikipedia entires in order to track which ones we had and a seperate list for tapes we found that did not air. You can find the old version of this page here.
Since then, I have gotten in contact with Gerbert creator Andy Holmes who sent me this email with this pdf attached, detailing all of the entires in the video ciriculum series, which is a seperate series from the one aired. This series was made for Christian bookstores and the VHS tapes we have accuired are all part of it. Below is a list of tapes including the ones we have. If you happen to have one of the tapes we are missing that you want to part with, or spotted it in a thrift store or flee market, shoot me an email. Still have to keep this project slightly harder than just buying the tapes off ebay.
