I'd personally like to know exactly what is going on with the industry. While TV Shows on DVD have been quick in getting released, TV Shows are generally very slow in getting a release to Blu Ray.
It seems that studios are concentrating more on releasing shows that are currently still being broadcast with new episodes rather than releasing catalog titles of television shows.
Chips, Seaquest, Magnum P.I., Gilligan's Island, Bewitched, I Dream of Jeannie just to name a few ... it seems that the studios have abandoned the concept of releasing television shows to home video. What I mean is that we have some television shows that have seen some season releases and abandoned for some strange reason. Then you have the Blu Ray format, which is a new format, that has yet to see any classic television shows released to blu ray.
The only exception of a classic television series being released to blu ray has been the original Star Trek series.
