Dave Coulier answers your questions. I found this because I wanted to see what I'd hit with a Google search for "Diz McNally". Dave admits not knowing where Diz is these days, but I nonetheless always like to see a teevee personality putting personal effort into making their webpresence, even if they don't all obtain Wil Weatonesque levels of geekery.

I obtain extra enchantment from the domain name. It's the meaningless catchphrase of "Out of Control", a crazy comedy teevee show featuring Dave, Diz, and other strange and quite possibly Canadian people doing silly things, and surely one of my favorite things when I was wee. It and everything else that was on Nickelodeon after school circa 1984 did much to turn me into the person I am todaaaay. If I recall correctly, Out of Control was on before Mr. Wizard, and after You Can't Do That on Television and Dangermouse.

Lo, I am drifting through Yesterdayland, when I should be brushing my teeth. Good night.

YOU ARE CORRECT I had forgotten about that one. the jelly was so visceral though.

I wonder if it's available anywhere?

hmm, not really. :( says in a number of places that it was a spinoff of/produced by the same people who did You Can't Do That On Television. It's all very fuzzy, i'm realizing I was only 5 and 6 when I watched this stuff regularly but my siblings also seem to remember to lesser degrees the stuff I talk about.
