    The Farmer's Daughter (1963-1966)

    I have both sets. I think the 80 episode set has better picture quality IMO but that's because they used mostly recordings from the televised CBN edited episodes. The 64 episode set has more complete unedited episodes but those are mostly from 16mm, and the picture quality is not as good as the...

    Here's an episode with guest star Patty McCormack that deals with Women's Lib.

    The Farmer's Daughter (1963-1966)

    Good news! The William Windom Tribute Site on youtube has added about six more RARE "lost" Farmer's Daughter episodes recently the past few weeks. I say "lost" because they weren't included on any of the old "fanmade" DVD sets. Here's the link...

    The Brady Bunch 50th Anniversary. Might we finally see a Brady Blu-ray

    In 1974, the show had just been cancelled and was never really a big hit in the ratings in primetime. It never made the top ten. It was up against Sanford and Son. I think at the time all the producers cared about was making money--not preserving the show unfortunately. They just wanted to...

    The Brady Bunch 50th Anniversary. Might we finally see a Brady Blu-ray

    They didn't film in 16mm. They filmed in 35mm, but some episodes were edited for syndication back in 1970s, so they replaced the missing segments with 16mm copies for the DVDs because they couldn't find them in 35mm.

    GILLIGAN'S ISLAND - DVD SEASON & SERIES SETS (2004-2012) - Pros, Cons, Incongruities & Imponderables

    I just remembered another example of the benefit of broadcast order versus production order: During mid-production of the fifth season of Bewitched, actor Dick York who played Darrin on Bewitched suffered a seizure on the set, and had to quit the show mid-season because of health reasons, so he...

    GILLIGAN'S ISLAND - DVD SEASON & SERIES SETS (2004-2012) - Pros, Cons, Incongruities & Imponderables

    The old 1980s colorization looks bad compared to today's modern attempts like the more recent Lucy/Dick Van Dyke specials. The technique has improved. Plus now, the show can be seen in HD. They didn't have a variety of colors to choose from back then. Plus its in standard definition. The...

    Did anyone purchase "Lost in Space - the complete classic series"?

    I own the Blu Ray set, and I haven't had any problems with skipping. The picture is amazing and I can see all the fine details I've never noticed before. The discs are hard to remove from the tight pockets, so to avoid scratching them, you might want to store them in different cases. They did...

    Can Someone Tell me Why Chico and the Man is MIA?

    I'm fine with just watching Chico and the Man on Tubi. I don't have the urge anymore to record or own every single episode of every TV series that I'm slightly interested in. I already have dozens of DVD sets I purchased over ten years ago collecting dust on my bookshelf, that I haven't finished...

    Three's Company - The official 40th Anniversary Collection Coming December 22nd!

    They could of included it as a bonus feature with closed captioning. That would've given fans an extra reason to double dip.

    Press Release MPI Press Release: The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet Seasons 13 & 14 (DVD)

    You should send MPI an email, and ask them if you could buy the book separately, and tell them you supported them and bought all the sets individually. The worst they could say is no. They must have extras for replacements.

    Complete Series Sets of KATE & ALLIE and GIMME A BREAK Coming (Again) on May 29, 2023

    My Barnaby Jones set has the wallets, too, inside a big, fat black case. I don't mind them. Its easy and convenient to flip through and find the disc you're looking for. I wouldn't be surprised if their new Three's Company complete series set uses them, too.

    Three's Company - The official 40th Anniversary Collection Coming December 22nd!

    But the 40th anniversary was in 2017. This must be a re-release of the 2017 release? Maybe they decided to release it again because Suzanne Somers died?

    Can Someone Tell me Why Chico and the Man is MIA?

    I watched episode 8, "The Veterans" last night, and it had a running time of 25:45. I spot checked a few more episodes from all four seasons, and they average between 24 and 25 minutes. Picture quality is normal for this type of series taped on video in the 1970s, and probably as good as gets.

    Can Someone Tell me Why Chico and the Man is MIA?

    This is AWESOME news!! Thank you so much, Scott, from the person who started this post!!! I haven't had a chance to watch these episodes on Tubi, but I'm sure the picture quality and running times will be better than the TV recordings I've seen so far on youtube.

    Press Release MPI Press Release: The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet Seasons 1 & 2 (DVD)

    It looks to me like the all-in-one cases are slimmer than the season releases, but it's hard to tell. The all-in-one cases are black, and the regular cases are clear. Incidentally, amazon has it currently for $140.00 so that averages out to $10 a season for 14 seasons!!

    I don't know if its been mentioned before or not, but I noticed Tubi has ten seasons of Ozzie and Harriet to watch. Has anyone confirmed if they are running the same prints as the new DVDs? https://tubitv.com/series/300009663/the-adventures-of-ozzie-and-harriet/season-10

    77 Sunset Strip / Hawaiian Eye, etc.

    I love that Elizabeth Montgomery is mentioned in the article as a future guest star. This was a year before Bewitched premiered. She may have not been a household name at the time, but it proves that she was beginning to get recognition as a respected actress. She had also earned an Emmy...

    Who to contact about defective Warner Archive discs?

    I purchased some DVDs from the old Warner Archive about five years ago, and I'm trying to find my receipts. I figured since I purchased them online from their store, then they would have sent me an email when I purchased them. I tried searching "warner archive" in my past emails, but nothing...

    Which long running 50s sitcom would you most like to see get a complete release?

    The premise of "Bachelor Father" is very similar to the premise of "Family Affair." Both series deal with a bachelor whose world is turned upside down when his niece (or in the case of Family Affair, nieces and nephew) come to live with him. Also, they both have male housekeeper/servants. I grew...

    Which long running 50s sitcom would you most like to see get a complete release?

    I voted for Bachelor Father, but honestly, I think I'm done buying anymore DVDs. I even stopped recording shows off TV, too. I have so many complete series just sitting on my bookshelves (and in storage boxes) collecting dust that I'm thinking about selling some of them on ebay. LOL I'm fine...

    Writers and Actors Strike Effects

    I don't know? The pandemic shut down a lot of projects for a while. Maybe they'll start it up again? The specials certainly got good ratings in their timeslot.

    Soap operas

    I just finished watching the first two 1980 episodes on their streaming site, and there were no ads or commercials like on Tubi or youtube, so I'm wondering how is Retro making money off of this?? They spent a lot of money buying the special equipment to transfer and digitize these tapes, so...

    Probably ain't gonna happen. SFM Entertainment which owns The Doctors are missing about 300 episodes from the early years, and some of those episodes they do have, suffer from bad audio. Here's the link to The Doctors free streaming site: https://watch.itsrealgoodtv.com/ I'm personally...

    Soap operas

    No. I've heard from The Doctors facebook group that not a lot of episodes exist prior to the Dec 4, 1967 episodes, and they are in b&w. The current syndication ends with the 1979 episodes. They were in the process of digitizing the tapes for 1980-1982 when the pandemic hit, so they stopped, and...
