ALF (UNCUT only)
Alice (either season sets, or you can Kiss My Grits)
Amen

The Carol Burnett Show (season sets)
Designing Women (rumored for '06)

When Things Were Rotten (1975 Mel Brooks series)
The Wonderful World of Disney (original 1954-1983 run)

And other than releases, I'm waiting for:

A) A firm committment to the complete releases of all series that are chosen for release (this means you, Sony!)

B) A committment to present them uncut and restored whenever possible (this means you again, Sony!)

C) A compromise between music licensors and studios to put a permanent end to this music replacement quagmire once and for all.

This was apparently in the works for a Region 2 release earlier this year, but was cancelled. This might have something to do with restoration issues. It doesn't look like there's going to be any DVD release for this for the foreseeable future.

I have a long list of old shows I'd buy in a heartbeat.
And, I want the entire series not just a best of or a few samples.

Adventures in Paradise
77 Sunset Strip
Surfside Six
Hawaiian Eye
Bourbon Street Beat
Honey West
Burkes Law
Sea Hunt
The Gallant Men
Bat Masterson
Yancy Derringer
Cheyenne-the rest of the series
Bronco
Sugarfoot
Mannix
The Invaders
The Rebel
Spenser
Petrocelli
Laredo
Peter Gunn-the rest of the series
Jungle Jim
Shotgun Slade
Twelve O'clock High

Maybe I should start by just buying Warner Bros. That would take care of a big chunk of them.

I'm still surprised that The Drew Carey Show hasn't reached DVD yet, unless they're making a lot of money off the syndicated broadcast deals for all seven seasons.

Amerika (mini-series)
C.P.O. Sharkey
China Beach (Yes I know the reasons)
Commander-in-Chief
Dirty Dozen: The Series
E-Ring
Ike (mini-series)
Law & Order: Trial by Jury
Picket Fences
The Practice
Scarecrow and Mrs. King
Twelve O'Clock High
Ultimate Force

With signs of JAG on the way, that takes a big one off my list. I don't really expect Amerika or Ike as there doesn't seem to be a market for decades old miniseries. Commander-in-Chief and E-Ring will probably get announcements for next fall. I don't know if Ultimate Force will ever come as it's a UK show, already out in Region 2.
