I saw some tape on TV that could be used to wrap hoses, etc that had leaks. Any suggestions?

The tape probably wouldn't last long. Easiest way is to dig it up, saw out the damaged section with a hacksaw, and use sprinkler pipe couplers, hose clamps and a small section of new pipe to put it back together.

IGNORE THE OTHER ANSWERS. EASIEST WAY IS USE 1 INCH OF THIN WALL 1 1/2 PIPE. CUT 1/3 OFF(LENGHT WISE) APPLY GLUE TO EFFECTED PIPE AND THE PATCH PIPE . SNAP IT OVER THE PIPE. TWIST A LITTLE AND LET DRY. DONE THIS MANY TIMES. WORKS LIKE A CHARM. TRUST ME.

all you need is a pipe coupling and some glue and a saw
saw though the pipe at the leak
put glue on pipe and add coupling
pipe should be dry

you can get a coupler & PVC cement from the hardware store, cut the pipe at the pinhole and slide both ends of the cut pipe into the coupler -
easy,fast and cheap, { probably under $10.00}, fix-

break the tip of a toothpick off in the hole first then use the tape, cheaper than replacing the pipe.

Use a bicycle puncture repair kit. Everything you need all together in the one box and a very simple job.

Put a little epoxy on a small screw & drive it in the hole.
I have fixed many that way.

what to do is get gaffer tape and SMALL TUBE OF SUPERGLE. APPLY THE SUPERGLUE TO THE HOLE AND LET IT DRY AND THEN TAPE IT FIRMLY ROUND THE HOSE.
