FATHER KNOWS BEST, Season 3 - Coming in June (1 Viewer)

Gary OS · Feb 13, 2009

Per TVShowsonDVD.com it looks like Shout is going forward with this series! Great, great news!!!

Gary "I was sweating this one, big time - thank you Shout Factory!" O.

Allow me to be the first to reply and say that I'm

'ing for you in Fla. I didn't think you liked this show

You know I'm kidding. Great news for FKB fans.

It looks like Dave posted several good news posts this morning for some here, Peyton Place, That Girl final season, etc.

I'm glad to see this, and that Adam 12 wasn't abandoned again.

Do you think we'll have to worry about syndicated episodes this time around, or was that debate put to bed with season 2?

Gary OS · Feb 13, 2009

I'm reasonably sure we don't have to worry about syndicated prints any more with FKB. Of course anything is possible, but I'd say in this case it's highly improbable we'll see that problem again.

Gary "Jeff, you know me well - I'm dancing for sure with this news!" O.

Jeff Willis · Feb 13, 2009

Yep, I do

Just like you know what I'd do if that certain David Janssen show got "fixed" and saw a complete series release

Joe Lugoff · Feb 13, 2009

I love coincidences, even though they don't mean anything.

Today's coincidence is FKB and "Peyton Place" being announced the same day -- they both have characters named Betty Anderson!

I always thought it was so odd when the novel (1956) and movie (1957) of "Peyton Place" came out, when FKB was in the middle of its run, that one of the wildest characters had the same name as sweet and pure Betty Anderson.

Anyway, it's great news about "Father Knows Best"!!!

Mike*HTF · Feb 13, 2009

Very glad to see this announcement and hopefully season 3 will look as good as season 2.

DeWilson · Feb 13, 2009

I guess sales must be good on this.

Well,consitering the lack of 1950's sitcoms on DVD,it's no surprise.

Gary OS · Feb 13, 2009

And this is why I'm so happy with Shout keeping this series going. Right now they are just about the only outfit that's consistently putting out any 50's sitcoms... well, 50's sitcoms that aren't mutilated (aka "My 3 Sons"). With this announcement, they stay firmly on top in my book.

Gary "keep up the good work, Shout!_Factory" O.

Gary OS · Feb 14, 2009

I'm pretty sure you'd have plenty of partners for that dance if it happened. :laugh:

Gary "FKB was such a wonderful show" O.

cajunhillbilly · Feb 14, 2009

Now if only Infinity would put out season 4 of The Real McCoys.

Gary OS · Feb 14, 2009

Sure, that would be nice.

Gary "still so happy about this latest news!!!" O.

Gary OS · Feb 14, 2009

Another nice thing about this third season release will be the inclusion of another wonderful Christmas-themed episode. "The Angel's Sweater" is a solid Christmasy episode that I'll be glad to be upgrading from my old TVLand copy.

Gary "now, if only I could convince Brian & Co. to include the Christmas-themed episode from 'Window on Main Street' with this particular set" O.

Gary OS · Feb 16, 2009

A little simple trivia today (very simple, but I'm wanting it to be open to those that have just gotten into the show): What nicknames did Jim Anderson have for his two daughters? Tell us which name went with which daughter.

Gary "as best I can remember, there really wasn't a nickname given to Bud that stuck like the ones given to the two daughters" O.

TV_Fan · Feb 16, 2009

I've only seen some of the S1 episodes, but I know he called Kathy his youngest "Kitten." Um, the older one "Princess" maybe?

Jude86 · Feb 16, 2009

Bud was his nickname, Gary!

The character was really James Anderson, Jr.

And can't wait for season three--the last set really set the tone for FKB as a series. I'm sure we will get another episode of Window on Main Street as well as a bonus!

Gary OS · Feb 16, 2009

Yea, but everyone called him that. Friends and other family members never called Betty "Princess" or Kathy "Kitten". Although I think you were kinda joking with me, I probably should have made myself clearer.

Gary "I agree that the cast/show hit its stride in Season 2, and the next set will be much of the same" O.

Jude86 · Feb 16, 2009

I've never known Bud to be called any other kind of nickname, unless it was something nasty by Betty or Kathy. LOL.

Jude "I'm paying tribute to GaryOS in this quote" C

Gary OS · Feb 16, 2009

Thanks Jude.

Gary "this release will bring us to the half-way point, hope that is a good sign that we will get all the way through this series" O.

Gary OS · Feb 18, 2009

I've yet to hear from another good buddy that I know will be thrilled to hear a 3rd Volume is being released this summer - Bert Greene. Bert, if you are out there let us know what you think about this great news.

Gary "between this news, and 'The Fuge' news, I'm back to being very excited about Classic TV on DVD in 2009" O.
