I think this must have been a failed pilot for a kids show, but I remember getting 2 episodes of this show on a VHS back in the 80s. It was about a young boy that is friends with a crazy old scientist. It was clearly inspired by Back to the Future. I barely remember the first episode, something about a monster getting set lose and the kid and scientist having to bring him back. They figure out they can pied piper him and lure the creature back with some lame synth music.
The second episode I remember much better and I recall finding it quite funny. The boy goes to visit the scientist and finds that the scientist has voice activated his lab. So anything they say appears in front of them.
