Five more from Movie Zyng's Warner Archives sale:

From the Warner Archives' birthday sale at Movie Zyng couple of weeks ago, where I over-indulged:

Another possibility, although likely remote, is Jack Webb's G.E. True (1962-63). Also, isn't The Alaskans one of those with a ton of music performed (mainly by series regular Dorothy Provine) in it? I'd think that would put the kibosh on a disc release, unless WB has somehow been quietly and...

The incident referred to was the Universal Studios fire, which happened on June 1st, 2008. It had a far bigger impact on music than films/TV shows, as a ton of original master recordings were destroyed in the blaze. Most of the articles that you'll find in a web search focus on that music loss...

While I don't have the set yet (it streets in early June) and they don't mention it in the tech specs for the set on their website, I think it's pretty safe to assume it will have English subtitles. I have both of their recent, previous Avengers sets (Imprint Television #3: The Emma Peel...

BFI's restored Blu-ray/DVD (Region B/Region 2 Pal) combo of BBC's television production of Nineteen Eighty-Four (1954), starring Peter Cushing.

Possibly. It's an outlier, in that it's half the length of the previous specials, and Dr. Frank Baxter is replaced by an animated drop of water, voiced by Sterling Holloway --Wikipedia's description. I don't think I've ever seen it, it was never included in any of the previous Bell Science...

Pre-ordered today, ViaVision/Imprint's region-free Blu-ray collection of The Prisoner, and thanks to a 20% off UK TV series coupon code provided in the email advertising that classic series, I was also able to order ViaVision's Callan: The Ultimate Collection region-free DVD set (already at a...

Here's an idea... how about a ClassicFlix release of the Bell System Science Hour specials (the first four produced/directed by Frank Capra, the subsequent four produced by Warner Brothers), hosted by Dr. Frank Baxter, on DVD and (possibly) Blu-ray? 1.) Our Mr. Sun (1956 Capra, animation by...

Have 2 hours and 17 minutes to spare? Here's a little something I just put together. Enjoy.

Thanks! Yup, it was a good time. Usually it's movies, rather than TV episodes, and I've whipped up intros to some of those, too. --We now return you to Favorite Classic TV Star Tributes, already in progress...

Correct! The Ventures' theme to the pilot to what would've been the live-action 1960s DICK TRACY tv series, from William Dozier (BATMAN, THE GREEN HORNET).

Here's a little tribute to classic TV (mostly sci-fi/horror/fantasy series) I edited together, for fun, as an intro to a chatroom "watch party" situation a couple of weeks ago... Most are pretty easy, but can you i.d. all the clips featured in the intro, as well as the connection the music...

A question for the Insider, given the announcement of several re-issues of previous Kino titles from MGM, lately. Kino released Sergio Corbucci's Navajo Joe (1966, United Artists), starring Burt Reynolds, on DVD and Blu-ray, back in 2015, which has been out-of-print for quite a while now. Kino...

Oops! For some reason I was thinking Shout released that one, but obviously not... and also reminds me that The Frozen Dead (1966) also hasn't gotten a blu-ray release. I'll update the list now.
