Re: The new & improved "What 5 tv shows do you want released on dvd?"

1. THE FUGITIVE (1963-67) Paramount
2. Boris Karloff's THRILLER (1960-62) Universal
3. M SQUAD (1957-60) Universal
4. Alfred Hitchcock's SUSPICION (1957-58) Universal
5. THE INVADERS (1967-68) Paramount

WKRP (1978-82) and BATMAN (1966-68) would easily be in my top 5, if there was any reasonable chance that their rights difficulties would be ironed out any time soon. MAVERICK (1957-62) would be in there, too, except I'm limiting my list to shows that have had no legit release on R1 DVD yet, and there are 4 episodes of MAVERICK currently available through WB (the TV Favorites: MAVERICK disc and one episode featured as a supplement on the UNFORGIVEN: SE DVD), and I'm sure season sets are forthcoming.
