     Exactly. And besides, of those few people who would buy it, how many do you think haven't already picked up the German release?

Maybe so, I am not holding my breath, but it does not hurt to suggest it. I would prefer an American release, instead of the German one.  The price is not too high, but it is more than I usually spend for TV DVD releases.  If the price came down, I would probably buy it.  I already have most of the eps anyway recorded off of German TV.  They are not in the best shape, but they are pretty good and certainly watchable.

I can see that if you already picked this set up, many or most would have no interest in supporting this.  Maybe for those who are interested in a USA release, you could also contact Shout Factory or post in the message board.  It is easy, just provide an e mail and a user name and you are all set to post right away.  I am sure that there are more than just a "few" who would like to see this set released in the USA. thanks!

I can think of about 50 short-run series from the 60s that I would like to have which I don't already have a DVD set of already. I think I speak for most when I say it would be better to get those.

I would love to see other series made available too that are not out on DVD in the USA or anywhere else, but this thread is for/about Mr Terrific and not for other releases we want to see.  I am sure that I could think of some that may be "better" also. No offense to any of the posters, but I guess if you already have this set, that is why we are getting these kind of replies.

As a committed (perhaps "should be committed") fan of Mr. Terrific, I would also dearly love to see an American release. Though I purchased a couple of the German DVD sets, I'd be very willing to shell out a few more bucks for a Region 1 release, especially if it contained a complete print of the aired pilot and a watchable print of the unaired pilot.

But, logically, I must agree that it's more vital to the collecting community at large to see other shows which are not available at all at this point.

Hey we got a release for Pat Paulsen's Half a comedy hour . So why not Mr Terrific?

Plus i don't have ability to play non region 1 dvds. So i'm all for someone like Shout releasing it in region 1.

      Maybe because one show is independently owned and the other is owned by a major studio? Maybe because one could be happy with a few thousand sales and the other is owned by a company that expects its releases to sell ten times as many? Do yourself a favor and go on line and get a hack code for your DVD player. You'll be region free in 30 seconds.

Maybe my point was if a show like Paulsen's got a release a show like Mr Terrific might get  a release.

I get the point that one is owned by a major company and one is from a small company.

But shows like Tabitha have been released by a major studio (Columbia) so who knows .

Plus these so called major studios have farmed out shows to the smaller companies like Shout .So why not?

Thanks for the info on the hack code . I'll look into it.
