    The beginning of the end for classic shows?

    I think letter writing might entice a big studio to license a title out to a smaller company. They may not want to 'risk' their own money or effort but if they know there's some market, letters may turn the tide to seeing more shows licensed to other companies.

    The beginning of the end for classic shows?

    The differences are that Adventures Of Superman is good, it has fans outside of Superman fans and it sold better than a low budget 1980's syndicated series (even one from the Superman franchise).

    It doesn't make his point any less valid. It'd be great if there was more classic stuff available but just because there's some people who want it doesn't mean that it'll sell well enough to be a profitable release for studios. They could have the greatest show of all time sitting in their...

    Good question. Here's a better question, how many people who hate Buffy have even seen it? I'm not saying that everyone who doesn't like the show has never seen it but I bet a lot of people who say it's bad are basing it upon its title as opposed to actually watching it.
