    Fugitive comes to DVD in a 33 disc set on Nov. 1st 2011

    Well, that certainly was an interesting final episode. Despite some rather unbelievable behavior by Gerard and the introduction of a totally new, crucial character into the proceedings, overall I'm satisfied with how they wrapped it all up. It was a fun ride thru the entire series and one that...

    Watched Part 1 of the final episode last night. Can't wait to see how it all ends!!

    Fugitive comes to DVD in a 33 disc set on Nov. 1st 2011

    Well, my first ever viewing of The Fugitive series is nearly at an end. I am down to the final 2 episodes of Season 4. Will most likely watch them sometime this week. I must say that I'm ready for the series to end. Season 4 has been my least favorite. As I've stated before, it's mainly the...

    Fugitive comes to DVD in a 33 disc set on Nov. 1st 2011

    I'm slowly but surely making my way to the end of Season 4. Overall, not enjoying this season as much as the previous 3, but that may be because the formula is wearing a bit thin. The guest actors continue to hold my interest. The episode I watched last night ("A Passage To Helena") was...

    Barnaby Jones - The Complete Series

    Any time Frank Cannon had to get physical (especially running), I had to do a major suspension of disbelief.

    Fugitive comes to DVD in a 33 disc set on Nov. 1st 2011

    I'm now 1/3 of the way thru Season 4 and have really been enjoying the color episodes. Also enjoying the more frequent appearances of the one-armed man. Looking forward to the final 20 episodes!

    Fugitive comes to DVD in a 33 disc set on Nov. 1st 2011

    Last night I started viewing Season 4. The whole color thing was very jarring at first (especially the weirdly colored opening sequence), but I quickly got used to it. Can't wait to make my way to the famous finale!

    Just wrapped up Season 3 last night. Looking forward to diving into the color Season 4 soon!

    One of my favorites! Eileen Heckart is always great.

    Are people still blind buying physical media ?

    Much like Bob O'Link, any blind buys I make usually come after reading what others have said about a particular TV show or movie online, or from a real life friend's recommendation. Very rarely have I regretted it. I don't do streaming and don't even have cable, so everything I own is a...

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

    While I agree that Prinze's death was a major shock, I wouldn't go as far to say "no one wanted to see it." It was more of a case where the major attraction is gone and the show just wasn't the same without him.

    Cannon And Others Coming Back Courtesy Of VEI

    I'm old enough to remember when my hometown Minneapolis newspaper had a morning edition (Tribune) and an evening edition (Star). I consider my Newspapers.com subscription to be a basic necessity!

    FINALLY! MAYBERRY R.F.D. The Complete Series is going to be released DVD only on 6/13/2023 along with Night Court. Details below.

    I recently watched Season 1 and while I agree that it's not even close to prime Andy Griffith Show territory, it does have its own quiet charms. A lot of it is pure nostalgia, as it's one of the first TV shows I remember watching as a young child. Looking forward to watching the rest of it...

    Fugitive comes to DVD in a 33 disc set on Nov. 1st 2011

    Just watched the Season 3 episode "Stroke of Genius" with Telly Savalas and Beau Bridges. This may be my least favorite episode so far. The whole premise of the kid recklessly shooting the passing motorist (the local reverend, no less!) and both the father and son being unlikable made it tough...

    Just watched "Not With A Wimper" recently. Not one of my favorites either. Too outlandish, even by The Fugitive standards.

    Fugitive comes to DVD in a 33 disc set on Nov. 1st 2011

    Watched another great Season 3 episode last night. This'll Kill You with Mickey Rooney and a personal favorite Nita Talbot. Ol' Mick can run hot and cold with me, but he was really on his game here and Nita was at her most gorgeous.

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

    I agree Ron. It's more than likely a "bottom line" type decision. IIRC, the one disc "best of" put out many years ago didn't sell enough to warrant any future releases.

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

    So, instead of sharing his talent with the world by making the show readily available, we should all just forget the fact that Freddie Prinze or the show ever existed? Seems to actually compound the tragedy to me.

    Fugitive comes to DVD in a 33 disc set on Nov. 1st 2011

    Just watched the Season 3 episode Wife Killer and it's one of my favorites of the entire series (so far). Seeing Kimble interact with the one-armed man is fascinating. Even with the highly improbable ending of Gerard failing to apprehend either man (why hasn't this man been fired!), it's a fun...

    Fugitive comes to DVD in a 33 disc set on Nov. 1st 2011

    I am now half-way thru Season 3 on my first-ever viewing of the series. Still holding my interest, thanks mainly to the fabulous guest stars. Looking forward to seeing the final color season!

    DECADES TV Network Rebranding to CATCHY-Comedy TV March 27, 2023.

    Reading threads like this just make me appreciate my massive DVD/BD collection even more. Just this past weekend I watched episodes of The Fugitive, Little House, Hogan's Heroes, MASH, The Rifleman and Bonanza. Along with a Joan Jett documentary, an old Merv Griffin show and a vintage episode...

    Heck, I'd even re-buy The Addams Family on single-sided DVDs (IIRC, all we got were flippers).

    Count me in for a Day 1 purchase, should it ever happen.

    Baretta season 2

    I always thought the reason that the rest of Baretta was held up was because of Robert Blake's legal problems. Would love to see the rest of this series eventually get released.

    Pre-Order Hogan's Heroes: The Complete Series (Blu-ray) Available for Preorder

    Got my set a couple of weeks ago. The quality is top notch. I forgot how much I enjoyed this show. The entire cast is great, but Banner was the best. My Dad used to pull into the driveway after work just as the theme song was playing and if he was a little late, he always asked me what he...

    The Complete Rankin/Bass Christmas Collection

    I saw this set was starting to get hard to find online. I saw a lone copy at my local Wal-Mart and scooped it up immediately. Glad I did!
