I watched Strange Paradise on WNEW from NYC. I believe it aired at the dinner hour here as well. I found the show a kick to watch, similar to DS in some respects but very much it's own unique style. I was not expecting for them to kill off virtually the entire cast in the first storyline and abruptly relocate to another location. I thought that Tudi Wiggins was quite good as Erica, the Angelique of the show. I got a big kick out of the fact that she eventually ended up on Love of Life in a romantic triangle with Jerry Lacy. Not quite a DS/Strange Paradise crossover but close enough.
Strange Paradise apparently didn't bring in the numbers that WNEW expected; it was scheduled opposite Star Trek reruns. The show was banished to a 3am time slot and I never got to see the final two story arcs.
