A source in the industry has confirmed something that I had heard previously. Universal's in-house transfer costs are so outrageous that it makes it near impossible for them to make any profit on all but the highest selling sets. Get this, a single episode transfer from film costs them $5000...
I don't know if this means anything or not but a source of mine at Paramount told me that the person who is involved with DVD releases has pulled the source elements on the show to evaluate them. Could be just a formality or maybe they are seriously considering a release and they're checking to...
Didn't all of the shows that finished well in their last poll not get released while the poor finishers did? So what's the point? Also, did you see which show is in first? You've got to be kidding. Bette? That show was awful. Who's voting in this thing anyway? BTW, how about a Sony poll that...
It was a lot simpler 4 years ago before anyone knew all of this would take off. Anything that wasn't super popular, you just assumed wouldn't come out and you transferred it. Now, you never know what is going to come out. When shows like the Stockard Channing Show, Tabitha, Blue Thunder and...
Paramount looks like they are really pushing to get some great product out there with upcoming releases of Hawaii Five-0, Untouchables, Streets of San Francisco, Fugitive (we hope), more Perry Mason and Wild Wild West. Meanwhile, Warner's big announcement is . . . What I Like About You! No...
After seeing the post about Ironside being list on the DDD site, I decided to search through the upcoming releases and lo and behold, look what I found. First season is on it's way!
I was a big fan of the show through most of the run and I'd have to say that of maybe 2,000 made, what they put out would be 2,001 on my list. There were so many great and interested shows done and whoever released this picked about the absolute worst and least interesting. Besides, aren't the...
I was just watching the unaired Garrison's Gorillas pilot, which has some of the Combat cast in it. Would have made a nice extra on the Combat set but it wasn't included. That got me thinking about what other unaired pilots should have been on sets but haven't been. All in the Family comes to...
Sort of. From the looks of it it may be a best of release, but still, the show was pretty much just one long string of musical acts anyway. As to any questions about the source, well I can tell you for a fact that all of the 2-inches were wiped by ABC so this is most assuredly coming off...
I'm not a big movie buff but the two instances I know of: Black Bart pilot included as an extra with Blazing Saddles Meet Me in St. Louis as part of movie bonus material If there are any others I'd love to know about them.
I tried to access the list at tvshowsondvd.com and couldn't find it. I just got in a bunch of tapes of 16mm Munsters transfers and I wanted to run the episodes that were edited on the DVD but couldn't find the alterations list.
Now all under the Warner ownership by way of their buying Turner in the 90s. They have not even hinted at a release of any of this shows. Here's a selected list of the shows that are now owned by them: # Lady Blue (1985) (TV) # "Jessie" (1984) # "Empire" (1984) # "We Got It Made" (1983)...
A couple of these were announced and then withdrawn, like Mr. Magoo, Wally Gator (with Lippy the Lion and Touche Turtle) and Marvel Superheroes. No word on them since. Also, where are: Quick Draw McGraw Peter Potamus Deputy Dawg Casper the Friendly Ghost Tom Terrific Hercules Felix the...
I have an opportunity to get access to tapes/films of these 2 shows from a vault. They are from a small network's run of the shows about 20 years ago and I have a friend who now works there and has access. I know that The Fugitive tapes are the 46:30 timesped versions that Worldvision syndicated...
The only thing that I ever bought through TL was the first season of What's Happening and then I remember it being available through normal channels a short time later. I'm just wondering now with Odd Couple and Get Smart coming out how long they will have exclusivitiy.
I loved this show and I'm thrilled it's coming to DVD. I bought 16mm prints on 20 episodes about 1983 or so, with several in black and white. For those unfamiliar with the show, it probably holds the distinction of being the highest rated show ever cancelled. It finished #5 for the year in the...
Flipper only ran 3 seasons. I wonder where they got the information from for their press release. Makes you wonder what kind of company this is when they can't even get a simple thing like how long the show ran correct. 1st Season 1964 1- 1 2803 19 Sep 64 300 Feet Below 1- 2 2811 26 Sep...
We are coming up on the one year anniversary of the season 1 release (June 7) and I am wondering if this is a done deal or if we might see the other 2 seasons. I would think that a show with such a big star as Steve McQueen would sell sufficiently to warrant further releases.
Sitcomsonline is reporting that a company will be releasing a set with both Stockard Channing series from CBS, Just Friends and The Stockard Channing Show. It's up for pre-order at a ridiculously low price from amazon canada. Here's the link: http://www.amazon.ca/exec/obidos/ASI...590440-1943546
Let's just concentrate on the shows that are in color or at least had color seasons because thus far Sony has shown no indication of being interested in their black and white shows. Camp Runamuck Wackiest Ship in the Army Love on a Rooftop Hawk Empire Iron Horse Occasional Wife Second...
As of today's date, the following are shows that won Emmy Awards for best drama or comedy series and are not yet out on DVD in studio releases. 1952-1954 Dragnet 1954 Make Room for Daddy (Jean Hagen version) 1958-59, '60-61 Jack Benny Program 1958-59 Maverick 1961-64 The Defenders...
Should we start hearing about season 3 soon or is it time to start worrying that Sony is going to pull a "Mad About You" with this series. They got the first 2 seasons out within 6 months of each other so on that pace the next one should be in May.
Doing some searching and I noticed that a small company has released a 6 episode DVD of the Bill Dana Show. This is a very rare show from the early 60s. The only reruns of this show in the US were on CBN in the late 80s, although in true CBN fashion they were cut to 22 minutes, sometimes more...
