    Steve Canyon (1958)

    Now there's a DVD I'd like to get my hands on! I have an episode of SC on VHS on a double bill with Caniff's other comic "Terry and the Pirates". While T&P had its eyes on the kiddie market, SC was definitely aimed at the adults with all its Dragnet-like technical jargon and aerial...

    1950's comedies

    Maybe ... and this might be a long shot here... but maybe, if the CBS archives have a few of the live episodes in their vault, they might lease "Mama" to a small distributor, like they did with "Suspense"... already a second volume of that show is already being planned for release. Stranger...

    Timeless - Checkmate Etc.

    A little history on this show...

    Timeless - Checkmate Etc.

    I never expected for "Arrest And Trial" to see the light of day on DVD!! This is said to be the inspiration for today's "Law And Order".

    Universal - home of great television? Prison is more like it.

    Warners owns the rights to the Ron Ely version of Tarzan.

    Universal - home of great television? Prison is more like it.

    I can think of a few more really obscure Universal TV shows that I would love to see again PERIOD, even if they will never see the light of day on a DVD disc... I don't know if any of you have seen or heard of these shows, but I definitely have seen an episode or two... Pride Of The Family...
