All seasons are in the syndication package these days. MeTv and FeTv show them all.

The CBS Syndication Bible online is seriously out of date, regardless of the status of the syndication package. Mannix has been playing for years on Me-TV and all 194 episodes have been run several times and just recently FE-TV picked up the showing and started with Season 1 as well. But both...

Mission: Impossible and Mannix both originated at Desilu Productions in the late 1960s. MI ended in 1973, Mannix in 1975. Watch the 1973-74 Mannix episode "Race Against Time" Parts 1 and 2 and tell me that it doesn't sound like a MI plot. To a lesser extent "Bird of Prey" Parts 1 and 2 the...

Me-TV has been airing the entire series for 2-3 years now, late at night. All 194 episodes. So the Syndication Bible is obviously wrong and needs to be updated. Years ago, I was told that 130 episodes is the ideal number for syndication. A station could run 5 episodes a week (M-F) for 26...

That would end being the biggest DVD set in history. 635 episodes. If they simply used the same discs for every previous release, and guessing 5 episodes per disc average, that would be something like 125 discs!

VEI must have given up on the Barnaby Jones release. No longer appears anywhere on their web site.

Got my DVD set today and watched the first episode followed by the Larry Cohen interview. What a negative attitude he had about the show in general. The interview really adds no value to the DVD set and they could just as well have left it out.

Got my copy via Amazon this week and have already binge-watched the first half dozen episodes. The picture and sound quality is excellent for a 50 year-old show that probably was not remastered. The interview with Pat Cardi (last surviving cast member?) is most interesting. Sure, the show is...

Whatever the problem, it was addressed quickly. Mine was shipped yesterday (6/30) and Amazon says it will be delivered by tomorrow (7/2/) night.

I have the whole series on DVD and can see why it was cancelled after the lost season. The writing and acting were weaker and the story arcs covering 4-6 episodes were too drawn out.

The Loner is an excellent series. I bought a bootleg set a few years ago which did not include all the episodes and the quality of the picture/audio was very uneven. I have now been through the entire authorized release and its top-notch for a series that got little respect when it was on TV...

Wow! I'm so impressed and shocked. Never thought this one would see the light of day. Bought a partial series run on bootleg a few years and looking forward to seeing the whole series (with hopefully better masters than the bootlegs).

1) Lost In Space 2) Mannix 3) The Fugitive

I've been waiting for the price to drop below $100 and it did so this past weekend, so I pulled the trigger. It came today and I binge-watched the first six episodes of Season 2 (since I already had Season 1). Yes, some (but not all) of the episodes were edited and the picture quality isn't up...

As of 1/1/16, the price has dropped below $150 on Amazon. With Prime free shipping, you can have it in two days.
