    It's About Time...Finally

    Alright it may be a silly sit-com but I remember it when it originally aired. I also have the original lunchbox. Got to get this one.

    DVD Guilt

    I have aquired over the years a very extensive DVD collection. It is staggering to see it, litterally more than a thousand titles but probably many more. I orignally got into it because I wanted my kids to experience the same wholesome shows I grew up with. Then I think I was experiencing a...

    Slowed Retro releases

    Is it just me, or does it seem like very little is coming out from the 60's and 70's? I check this site everyday and it is rare to hear of a release. Maybe I am wrong and I am just not seeing the releases I want. When Batman comes out that will make up for everything. Then again, a lot has...

    Prince Planet

    I see Prince Planet is coming out in mid-May. It is 47 episodes, not sure what is up with the missing 5 other episodes to make a total of 52. MGM has them on HULU and it is the same 47 episodes. I am hoping that the quality is as good as it is on HULU. Another great 1960's Japanese animated...

    Ultra Q

    I got to believe they will have English subtitles. I find it hard to believe Shout! would release this in the US solely in Japanese? I imagine it will be like Ultra 7, no English dub but English subtitles.

    ULTRA 7 REVIEW

    I bought Ultra 7 and am very happy with the quality. I was a little unhappy about the English subtitles and being released in the original Japanese. I think I was very wrong about that. I like it being in the original language. You quickly get used to the subtitles. I think this is a very nice...

    Johnny Sokko and his Flying Robot

    I felt I had to address this news. Maybe I am one of the few but I really like this show. We are seeing more of these older Japanese shows coming out. The Space Giants would be great and Spectreman.

    Made for Tv Movies of the 1970's

    I own something like 79 Made for Tv movies of the 70's. I think there is an additional 60 something I don't have. I really enjoy watching them and am particularly fond of the so called fright genre. The other day my girls were asking me to put in a spooky movie so I put in Satan's School for...

    Hollywood and period shows/movies

    I have been around a while and have witnessed many social changes in the world and in our country. The world today is much grimmer and dangerous than it used to be. Younger people can't even imagine how much nicer society used to be. There was a common decency and morality interwoven into what...

    It's About Time

    I was hoping that Warner owned It's About Time but it looks like MGM. Maybe I'm wrong but I don't seem to think they are good about dvd releases. I know the show is not Masterpiece Theater but I would like to have it .

    Shazam

    Wow, I really didn't expect this one. My copies are fair to poor. I am definitely buying this one. The show is so square its cool.

    The Invaders

    I find myself coming back to certain series. The Invaders is one of the shows and rates in my top 10 for dvd purchases. I love everything about this show. I also think, it is one of the most plausable Sci Fi shows. Naturally, there are certain flaws in the logic of this show. Why does our hero...

    It's About Time?

    I know this is an obscure title. It is not that the series was that great but I would love to see it someday. I know it is long shot. I remember it as kid and I also remember the cool lunch box. Does anyone know who owns it? Imogene Coca and Joe E. Ross are always good. I recently bought a copy...

    Frankenstein JR. and the Impossibles

    Alright, I received my dvd set today. I love that these shows are being released but I must make a complaint. These menus are horrible! 1A 1B 1C 2A 2B..etc Are you kidding me? The old home made bootleg sets have much better menus. I am not supporting bootlegs, I am just saying these menus are...

    Young Samson and Goliath release

    I am very glad to see Warner releasing this title. It seems that all the recent MOD animation releases were from the 1970's which is great but let's not leave all the 1960's titles unreleased. Wish List: 1960's 1) The Herculoids 2) Frankenstein JR. and the Impossibles 3) Mighty...

    Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea season 4 vol. 2 problems

    I just received the last installment of Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea. I popped in the first disc and watched The Terrible Leprechaun without a problem. Then I started to watch The Lobster Man. It froze and skipped. I cleaned the disc and player--it still had the same problems. I played it in...

    Rockford versus Cannon

    I thought I may change gears from my live chat disappointment. I am a big fan of both shows and am amused by the contrast between the two characters. Rockford an ex-con and a loser in many ways. I don't mean as a person but he is the quintessential hard luck character. He usually gets stiffed...

    Hawaii Five O Season 8

    I love this series for many reasons and am very happy they seem to be releasing the whole series. I must confess that I was a little disappointed with season 7. I thought the stories and even Jack Lord seemed less than dynamic. When season 8 arrived my expectations were low. I can't tell you...

    Problems ordering from Shout Factory anyone?

    I have been trying without success to order Room 222 from Shout Factory. Their checkout screens have stopped me at every turn. I get messages it does not recognize my password or user ID. I have changed my account, set up new ones, used different computers to order, etc. No success. I called...

    Rocket Robin Hood is back!

    I am very excited to see the expected release date for Rocket Robin Hood as November 17th. I thought this title was dead but apparently not. For those of us who love the cartoons of the 1960's, this is an important addition. I would argue that there are great cartoons in every decade but none...

    Little Rascals question

    Hello Gang, I have a question about the Little Rascals. I bought the Little Rascals Complete Collection in the gold box. I was surprised I didn't see the later episodes that had Froggy. I see there is a new release in the news today. Is it a repeat of episode already offered in the complete...

    Updated list of 60's and 70's Saturday Morning Cartoons

    I for one am very disappointed at the 60's release. I am furious the dropped Johnny Cipher in Dimension Zero. I know it was not an original Hanna Barbara release but like Marine Boy, it was better than their cartoons. Most of the best cartoon of the 1960's came out of Japan. H.B. did have some...

    Patty Duke pre-order from Amazon

    I just got the link from Amazon to order. It is expensive at $40. but worth it. I have a question, Amazon list it as 6 disks in color? Is that a mistake? It has to be in B&W right??

    Not many 60's and 70's releases

    I guess one of the main reasons for a decrease in the release of shows from the 60's and 70's is that many have already been released. I do see that some are still coming, like the 2 cartoon releases, but it seems like it has greatly slowed down. I collect shows almost exclusively from these...
