This was the first episode of The Starlost.  In Atlanta last year I did
see that some station was re-running this with the episodes spliced
together into five 2-hour movies, perhaps this is what you saw.

Incidently, the ship they were on was the Earth ship Ark, which was off
course and would sometime crash into a star, but the command crew was
dead so no one was aware of this.  The show goes on as the three people
(Deven, Rachael, and Garth) keep finding people who almost get around to
getting the Ark back on course.

This has been discussed here before?  I know I remember it recently,
perhaps it was in net.sf-lovers.?
