Re: Simon & Simon Season 2??
Hey I hope shout! makes nice quality releases of all the seasons of simon and simon but I still want them to re start and finnish Ironside, one of the knocks on Shout! is their past on again off again comittment to finnishing shows just ask anyone whos a SCTV fan. But I'd love to see S&S, Nypd Blue , Kojak, Mccloud, etc..... released by Shout or someone

Re: Simon & Simon Season 2??
Shout! has not done ANY subtitles or closed captioning in the past, but apparently something changed because Adam-12 - Season 2 has closed captioning on it (you can see the logo on the back of the box, although I hadn't personally tried to activate them while playing the discs). Since they are both Universal shows licensed to Shout!, then I guess it's possible that S&S-S2 will also be blessed. It's waaaaay to early to get a for-sure answer on a question like that one, though...they haven't finished producing the release yet!

Maybe with the adam 12 and S&S syndication tapes that Shout! got from universal it include CC transcripts so shout did not have to create them at any added out of pocket cost to Shout!. Thats was the reason B Ward said why Ironside had no CC. I like CC for night owl viewing, hopefully more releases from shout will have CC . Also considering apart of their target audience for there show (old baby boomers gone deaf from all the loud rock concerts they went too

) CC would help sales

. BTW the CC is the passive type that only seems to play with a composite connect dvd player with CC turned on (never been able to get to work with my hdmi or componet connected dvd player) like cbs has on most of there classic (mannix, MI) or current (ncis) releases there no formal lanuage/cc menu with the Adam 12 set.

In case Shout! Factory is reading this thread; I would love the remaining seasons of "The Fall Guy" (with the original music intact), and for “Quincy” as well.
Thanks for continuing to license these "abandoned" shows.
Disney/Buena Vista/Miramax: Please put Beautiful Girls on Blu-ray with bonus features and the original theatrical trailer in 1080p, and an anamorphic re-release with bonus features and the original theatrical trailer day-and-date on DVD. Thanks!
