That website is likely inaccurate. For one, "Gilligan, The Goddess" was produced as the second episode of Season Three but held to air as its last, so it would be highly unusual for that script to contain a list of ideas for Season Four. Second, I've searched and never found *any* evidence to...

You have great taste! Those are some of my favorites as well.

I agree with you. But to answer your initial question, comparing them is the only way to acknowledge how they differ and how they don't. Obviously they're not 100% identical -- that's why a lot of this thread has devolved into the usual "which is better" debate -- but with, at the very least...

I DREAM OF JEANNIE was specifically developed to capitalize on the success of ABC's BEWITCHED and wouldn't exist without it. In fact, NBC and Screen Gems initially asked BEWITCHED creator Sol Saks to create a similar show for the rival network. He declined but Sidney Sheldon agreed and studied...

The first show on his list is He & She. Is there talk again of that being released?

Great news -- bodes well for the other (rarer) un-syndictaed episodes seeing the light of day if future seasons are released. Thanks!

Are all 38 episodes included or is the set missing "Public Property On Parade," which is the only first season show NOT in the current syndication package?

Is the entry excluded from the syndication package ("Public Property on Parade") included, making for a total of all 38 first season episodes?

I don't think it's odd you like the radio series more. Most of Brooks' stories were built on misunderstandings -- Three's Company, but with better grammar. And it's much easier to suspend disbelief for these heightened, silly scenarios without the limitation of visuals. However, I don't think...

WCBS-TV (Channel 2) showed it regularly from September 1962 to January 1965, first daily, then weekly.

Which one(s) did you watch? There's a big difference in quality between a 1953 episode and a 1955 episode. I think the first season is great and each year thereafter is a continued descent. But don't forget, by the time the show moved to TV, they'd been doing it for four years on radio and...

Listings are up on Amazon for Our Miss Brooks. The runtimes -- 850 minutes is both volumes' combined -- suggest that either all 38 episodes from Season One won't be included (there's one from the first year that's excluded from the syndication package) or that they're all edited, about 22:30.

So, are you saying the visual placement of Johnson and Wells' title credits switched randomly during the original broadcasts -- of BOTH color seasons -- and that the DVDs largely settled on one version for Season Two and another for Season Three (with the HD remaster further ensuring that all of...

A little bit confused regarding the various versions of the opening theme. @Robbie^Blackmon, maybe you can help clarify this for me. Am I correct in believing that the original SECOND SEASON arrangement and recording of the opening theme is used for both Seasons Two and Three on DVD? I do hear...

Same quality and edits as the recent run, it seems. But now I can free up the space on my DVR without having to do any of my own maneuvering to save the episodes. Still a net-plus (as far as I'm concerned).
