    Wyatt Earp, season 1 coming

    I thought after Rhino's "best of" release a few years back (and a condensed version of that release offered by Timeless Media) that we wouldn't see anything else on "Wyatt Earp," but Infinity Entertainment is showing a 4/21/09 release date for season 1 of "The Life and Legend of Wyatt Earp."...

    Naked City: No Longer at Image Entertainment?

    Just checking the online TV-on-DVD catalog at Image Entertainment's web site and, save for the Criterion release of the original film which inspired the TV series, there is no reference whatsoever to any of the "Naked City" TV series releases.

    This one looks like a bit of fun despite the fact that a number of the shows represented on this have been issued by the likes of Alpha Video.
