The Cape was a great show for those of us who lived in the same community in which it was filmed or for those who wanted to but could not. I am guessing that the drama was set to be soap opera like to show us that even astronauts were people too. It obviously was not supported by NASA as the agency can only provide footage to all interested parties not actually produce a commercial (for profit) program. For me it was exciting to see venues I recognized including Cocoa Village, Cocoa, Florida, in the grocery store shopping scene of one of the episodes. Quick spoiler: No such kind of store there in the mid 1990's or now in 2019.
