    Is the b&w era of TV on DVD slowly coming to an end?

    Are the releases in the complete boxed set of the series and these individual seasons of Daniel Boone the same? Would I miss out on something if I bought the complete boxed set?

    Is the b&w era of TV on DVD slowly coming to an end?

    I just watched the first episode and loved it. If the writing is any indication of what follows, I will love the series. What appealed to me about THE QUALITY OF MERCY is that there were no easy sides to take, that the moral argument in the story isn't something that can be solved as a legal...

    My Death Valley Days set arrived first and who knew that my wife would love it? I don't think it hurt that we had just been to Death Valley in the EXACT locations where the pilot was filmed. But she's always liked WAGON TRAIN so I shouldn't be surprised she liked this. Thanks to Gary O for...

    I appreciate that very much. I will definitely post on THE DEFENDERS. I have high expectations and don't expect to be disappointed. I should have the set today and intend to watch at least one episode tonight.

    I just ordered Death Valley Days S1 and Defenders S1. I have never seen a single episode of either series. Got a good price for both and free one-day shipping. Should have them tomorrow (Sunday).

    I had never seen Dr. Kildare until I saw it on DVD. I loved it so much that I waited with anticipation every year for the new set. I'm glad I have it all. I pretty much have everything I want on DVD, all my holy grail shows plus more. What I am trying to do is enjoy the library I have and keep...

    I have never seen an episode of The Defenders (1961), but the buzz about that first season set is so terrific I am considering picking it up. I just don't want to open the door on a series that will never be released in its entirety...

    Thank you. Given the Danger Man set I want and now this, I may have to make some changes in my hardware.

    Can you send me the link? Thanks.

    It's easy to be happy when the only two "grail" shows I don't have complete (or will be completed, like Dr. Kildare) are Fury and The Beverly Hillbillies. I can only imagine how I would feel if Star Trek or The Fugitive or The Twilight Zone was still missing in the ether. I feel bad for folks...

    Then I say they look even sillier for trying to appear capricious and arbitrary. If I'm to believe what they say, at least, I'm also to believe the show was intrinsically fine all these years to broadcast but now has suddenly become intrinsically indecent because the wind changed direction. Talk...

    The Dukes of Hazard will no longer be shown on TV Land because it contains a car with the Confederate flag on it.

    Is the b&w era of TV on DVD slowly coming to an end?

    It depends on how one looks at it. if one sees this thread merely as a place to post and discuss new B&W DVD releases, then I would agree with you. If, however, one examines the question in the title of this thread in a more human way; that is, the value that these releases have to some of us on...

    Is the b&w era of TV on DVD slowly coming to an end?

    You'll notice my favorite show, THE FUGITIVE, isn't represented in that movie, because at the time I made it, THE FUGITIVE had changed, exactly what the movie railed against. I was very passionate about getting the music to THE FUGITIVE restored for this very reason. My dad and I used to watch...

    I have been to Hawaii but never to Alaska...I guess that will leave me one state shy....there's an episode of FATHER KNOWS BEST I like to watch before going on trips like this, I want to say it's third season, but I don't remember the title...the Anderson's go on a trip and have a swell time...

    Oops! make that 48...but I am going up into Canada...does that count as an add-on to the lower 48? edit: I was so damn proud of taking a road trip to all the states I just had to say 50...better not do that in the book, huh? I am seriously considering following this map...

    Is the b&w era of TV on DVD slowly coming to an end?

    I am driving to all 50 states and writing a travel book about it. The cool thing is, I have no time limit (3 months maximum) and plan to stop at places like The Andy Griffith Museum in NC, of the SF museum in Seattle, places that tie in with my love for classic television. In part the book will...

    Is the b&w era of TV on DVD slowly coming to an end?

    Yeah, and in the end it will all be futile, since nothing lasts forever. Still, having a "fair use" backup of the sets I paid thousands and thousands of dollars for makes me feel better, and I think I'm entitled to it.

    Is the b&w era of TV on DVD slowly coming to an end?

    My wife loves to go. I hate the idea until I am away, then I don't want to come back. One of the things I have done with my classic shows on DVD, particularly the B&W shows, is to rip and compress them in high quality h264 format. I can put an entire season of a show on one dual layered data...

    I'm actually travelling more now that I have saved all the money (thousands and thousands) I was spending on DVDs. And of course the whole time I am out seeing the world, I am worrying about my house burning down with all my DVDS in it. Hahah.

    Is the b&w era of TV on DVD slowly coming to an end?

    I try to look at the bright side. I have 7000 DVDs, more than I could ever re-watch in the years I have left. With the exception of a few titles like DR. KILDARE (which is finishing probably), I have almost everything I could dream of. And my savings account is reflecting it these days. It was...
