    Is the b&w era of TV on DVD slowly coming to an end?

    I love The Everglades! I was so happy when the film prints hit the collector's market in the 90s and I was able to pick up almost the whole run of the series. Unfortunately, the color prints never surfaced and half the episodes were filmed that way.

    Ozzie & Harriet Release From Sam Nelson?

    Yes, I'm watching on 4x3, as I do any show that was shot in 4x3.

    Is the b&w era of TV on DVD slowly coming to an end?

    From what I understand, yes. Not sure of the number they found. I know a collector who has all but a few on 16mm.

    Ozzie & Harriet Release From Sam Nelson?

    How come no one has commented on the show being window boxed and the black bars on all 4 sides?

    Is the b&w era of TV on DVD slowly coming to an end?

    Tallahassee 7000 was syndicated in the late 80s and ran on Channel America, although Sony couldn't find the full run. I think it was 19 of the episodes and they looked great. It was part of the LBS package of shows, which included Rescue 8, The Interns, Medical Story, Man Undercover and a bunch...

    Ozzie & Harriet Release From Sam Nelson?

    I'm finishing up season four and I need to take a break for a while. The shows are too repetitive and after a time, every episode starts to look the same.

    Press Release Paramount Press Release: Bonanza: The Complete Series (DVD)

    They could have added a couple of episodes of Griff, which NBC owns.

    My Three Sons: I Want a Complete Box Set

    I have the episodes I want, the first 5 seasons that I recorded from Nick at Nite aired complete.

    Is the b&w era of TV on DVD slowly coming to an end?

    If its not Betty Hutton, I would think the next 2 most likely shows would be either Angel or The Tab Hunter Show (less likely) with an a slim chance of Window on Main Street.

    DECADES TV Network Rebranding to CATCHY-Comedy TV March 27, 2023.

    A better title for the channel would be SOS (Same Old Shit). They're running shows which have aired a million times and are all on DVD. Great thinking.

    bonanza season 12 dvd coming in 2023

    That's either from a 3/4 tape or a color half inch reel to reel. Cartrivision used a skip field recording technique and it would be far more choppy. As for the Carson archives, many shows with guest hosts were not saved by him.

    Is the b&w era of TV on DVD slowly coming to an end?

    Great news. I'm gonna guess on the sitcom since I know of one that is not under studio control. The Betty Hutton Show.

    Baretta season 2

    What was lost were shows produced on 2-inch videotape which did not have backups made in other tape formats. Universal didn't do a great deal of tape production but for instance shows like Don Adams Screen Test burned up. Other series that were done in that format, perhaps Sirota's Court and...

    Popular Shows which never aired in the taping era

    I wouldn't really call one season shows popular.

    Popular Shows which never aired in the taping era

    Ran a couple of places, not many. I got almost the whole series taped from a station in southern New Jersey.

    Popular Shows which never aired in the taping era

    Many of these aired as one offs on nostalgia festivals and the like but I'm talking about a legitimate full series run. Here are some of the ones I can think of: The Gale Storm Show (Oh Susannah) San Francisco Beat Dragnet (original) Amos and Andy Beulah Racket Squad These were all heavily...

    Will There Ever Be A Ben Casey DVD Set ???

    Having had the chance to watch all of the episodes, I would put the show on the same tier as the great Herbert Brodkin series, like The Defenders, The Nurses and For the People.

    shows that have been destroyed

    An industry person posted a while back that they were being transferred to a modern format so there is hope. I have a few Karens but the other 2 shows have been on my want list for over 40 years.

    Find someone who recorded them on CBN and hope you have something worthwhile to trade.

    Baretta season 2

    When its pretty much assumed by everyone that the lead actor committed a murder (convicted or not), that pretty much makes the show not a very desirable property, whether on DVD, streaming or whatever. The first season release sold poorly, only around 8,000 units as I recall. Speaking of its...

    shows that have been destroyed

    Of course Karen still exists in the Universal vaults. As does the rest of the 90 Bristol Court series. Not to mention, UCLA has all of them on 16mm.

    Will There Ever Be A Ben Casey DVD Set ???

    One of the great lost shows of the 60s. Created by James Moser, same as Ben Casey, Only was given a second season because of William Paley wanting to keep such a quality show on the air. Ratings were horrible and the only shows it rated higher than were ABC Scope and CBS Reports. The 35 shows...

    The Flying Nun: Any News of a Complete Series Set?

    There was one episode which was incorrectly listed on the program guide which was the tape of another episode. Of the cut ones they ran, they had different edits than the old USA network 22 minute versions did.

    Will There Ever Be A Ben Casey DVD Set ???

    There's 2 episodes from the second season, which are intercut on the tape transfers. When I transferred my tapes to DVD years ago, I edited them properly. But if you look at your tapes of Between Summer and Winter the Glorious Season and Saturday, Surgery and Stanley Schultz, you'll see that...

    The Flying Nun: Any News of a Complete Series Set?

    Yeah, there's something up with a few episodes of GWSE. I got mine from USA years ago when they ran the full series.

    Ozzie & Harriet Release From Sam Nelson?

    CBN cut shows pretty badly, with half hour shows snipped down to a little under 22 minutes running time. But they did a great job of picking up series which nobody else had rerun, like Wendy and Me, The Bill Dana Show, Young Rebels, Wackiest Ship in the Army, Empire, Farmer's Daughter and I'm...

    bonanza season 12 dvd coming in 2023

    What was the story with the Forever episode? Was it a 2-hour show cut into 2 parts for syndication? When I recorded the shows off Encore I don't recall any of them missing.
