When I was unable to locate it at Walmart I contacted Timeless and purchased it directly from them, even though it wasn't listed on their website at the time. It cost slightly more that way (I believe $30) but I was happy to have it and didn't want to waste any more time at Walmart.GMBurns said:
Brad - thanks. I emailed Timeless and they said to expect the complete series to be on their website soon. Thanks a lot for the tip.smithbrad said:
You and me both, Lou. But with Shout now calling the shots, I'm not very confident we'll see this happen.LouA said:
Isn't it time to recognize that Shout's takeover of Timeless hasn't been the complete disaster as the repetitive complaints seem to indicate? Maybe they've slowed down their releases of the older chestnuts but they continue to offer the odd nugget. Timeless' past releases truly were a philanthropic venture in a rapidly changing industry....Gary OS said:
If you are asking me, then the answer is a categorical, "No!" To the contrary, the takeover has had a terrible affect on what Timeless had been doing versus what we see now.shoeshineboy said:

Sometime after Brad's post above, but a follow up nonetheless: I have just started watching the third season and can say without equivocation that this is a fantastic series on every level. Like most ZIV shows, you can tell they took pride in delivering a quality production, exemplified by using great writers and directors and ensuring each episode plays like a mini feature film. With its forgotten status as just another 50's western and its relatively unknown lead actors, it's an easy series to overlook, but I knew going in that with ZIV behind it there was no doubt it was going to be a great, unfairly neglected show. And it has proven to be so. I've been watching an episode nearly every night for the past few months and have rarely been disappointed, so once again a big thanks to Brad and Gary for spurring me to get this one!smithbrad said:Glad to here you were able to pick it up. I hope you like it as much as I do. It has become one of my favorites of the Timeless western releases. Some like to pick on Pat Conway's acting ability, but to me he does just fine (he grew up in an "acting" family). What really works best for me is that he also grew up on a ranch and has the skills of a real cowboy and that adds greatly to his presence in the role. Enjoy.
Oh, BTW, regarding those bills, I'd be happy to forward on Gary's address through PM if you don't have it already.
Hey Randy, I actually thought about you when I posted the last line in my earlier post. I was going to say, as loyal as Randy Korstick is to the Warner Archive, that's as loyal as I am to ZIV shows! I know you have unbridled enthusiasm for the WA and their releases, some of which I share, but you will rarely hear me say a bad word about a ZIV series. I just think they were done with such care for quality, in terms of content and execution, that they not only stand apart from many of their contemporary shows, they also stand the test of time even all these years later. Of course, there are a few I have yet to see so I can't make my statement without qualification, but of the ones I have seen, I'm sold!Randy Korstick said:
I do the same thing .I'm currently watching about 25 old shows, The Lucy Show, My Mother The Car, Ripcord , Untouchables Rawhide, Petticoat Junction etc. Incidentally, I finished the last episode of Tombstone Territory today. Excellent series. Lets hope for more ZIV shows.Randy Korstick said:

Seconded! One I'd like to see is Annapolis, I liked the release of West Point, and would like to see it's "Sister Show" as well.Professor Echo said:I'm in for all the ones listed above and, of course, others like THE AQUANAUTS, MIAMI UNDERCOVER, THE MAN CALLED X, I LED THREE LIVES, THE CASE OF THE DANGEROUS ROBIN, etc. etc. Heck, I want EVERY ZIV show!
