    What's coming up with Shout Factory?

    Hopefully, a bankruptcy filing. :P

    FATHER KNOWS BEST - Coming in April '08

    FATHER KNOWS BEST - Coming in April '08

    Do not do this, Vic! I took the bait myself last year and what I received was junk. The cases were falling apart, almost half of the dics did not play in any of my 3 stand-alones or 2 home computers, and they are flat out lying about the "205 episodes". The reason I took the chance was because...

    FATHER KNOWS BEST - Coming in April '08

    Joe, I've been collecting this series for a long while, trying to restore the original running times by culling different syndication prints(TV Land, CBN, etc) into one, and I never knew about the MTV-style re-edit. But it sure makes sense, because sometimes you will see the original dissolves...

    Leave it to beaver season 3?

    Gary, I was stunned when it became obvious Universal decided to chuck the remainder of this classic show. I still don't get. Especially since the first two releases were bare bones. So why not just continue??? But I really do think that, by far, we already have the best two seasons. If I...

    FATHER KNOWS BEST - Coming in April '08

    Yes, Larry is right. Lots and lots of verbiage about color footage from the set, "24 Hours in Tyrantland" (as Robert Young predicts the Bush Reich), other Young shows, etc. But not one mention of the word "uncut". Many people have syndicated collections of FKB -- minus a few eps here and...

    FATHER KNOWS BEST - Coming in April '08

    As the long-time owner of every FKB ep, aside from the Holy Grail(aka, "Not His Type"), let me also say: HOORAY! I was pretty sure this Christmas gift of news would never come, so what I started doing is basically culling the various syndicated versions of FKB, editing them into a form as...

    Father Knows Best- Good News!

    No, indeed it is not lost. It exists for viewing (and not copying) at the UCLA TV archive. But of the 200+ eps, it remains the only one not part of the FKB collector world. So in that sense. . .

    The Rockford Files Season 5

    Great news! But I was wondering how Universal will handle the final two seasons. Mainly two questions: 1) Will the awesome episode "The Man Who Saw the Alligators" be complete? Originally a 90 minute episode, it's always been cut to an hour for syndication. I've always wondered what...

    David Janssen and "Naked City"

    Hiya, Jeff. Yes! I didn't realize they were getting scarce. As you know from Set 1, Image Entertainment did such a beautiful job on the series, with gorgeous prints and all the original commercials. (Which they were smart enough to offer separate on the disc from the actual episodes.) Set...

    David Janssen and "Naked City"

    Received a very nice gift over the weekend. Was checking out Set 3 in the "Naked City" series and I came across an episode called "On the Battlefront, Every Minute Is Important". Starring David Janssen! One of the last episodes of this great series(March 1963), Janssen plays a slick and...

    "The Fugitive: Season 1, Volume 1" -- A Personal Review

    David, Beautiful, beautiful job. Both in terms of content and style. As someone with such a moving avatar, I was hoping you would expand on previous mentions of the Kennedy connection to the show. The sense of loss and sorrow is so strong here (Janssen's face could be an icon of such...

    "The Fugitive" (1963): Season 1; Volume 1 Rumored To Be In The Works!

    Jeff et. al, The song is "I'll Remember April" -- one of the great romantic ballads. The show, embodying a deep sense of loss throughout most of its run, uses it a lot. Haven't watched the new DVDs yet, but I truly hope this has not been eliminated in the release.

    Have Gun Will Travel

    What a dope. I should have done an HGWT search before posting. :crazy: And thank you. "Out of the Past" is the best American movie of the 1940s, isn't it? And thank you very much, Jeff. This does seem like the place.

    Have Gun Will Travel

    Hello, all. Great forum. Love HGWT. As you know, CBS Video did a masterful and deeply respectful job releasing Season 1, 2 and 3. A job which looks to have been rather expensive. Any word at all on Seasons 4 - 6? One worry I had on first release was the gulf between the care taken and the...
