    I thought VEI's treatment of The Bad News Bears (1979-80) looked great, even with the number of episodes per disc (12 on disc 1, 14 on disc 2). I thought that, with the second disc, that the episodes would look really muddy as a result of the number of episodes on this disc. ~Ben

    So, too, did VEI (Visual Entertainment, Inc.). But then CBS DVD itself began to wise up on logo replacement, at least on those titles they release through its MOD program. ~Ben

    Yes, I do hope they will resume Petticoat Junction at this point. That, and the remainder of its sister show The Beverly Hillbillies (season 5 being the latest release on DVD), as well as... 1. The Cara Williams Show (1964-1965) 2. Slattery's People (1964-1965) 3. He and She (1967-1968) 4...

    Right... but among them, another entry from Hanna-Barbera's 1962-63 New Cartoon Series is among the new releases in July: Lippy the Lion and Hardy Har-Har! I only first saw this cartoon in 1994 on The Family Channel and then on Cartoon Network mere months later. ~Ben

    And did you know that the working title of this series was Here's Johnny? Johnny was the name of the dog used to portray Boomer, but the title of the series was changed because it was associated with a catchphrase by Ed McMahon to introduce Johnny Carson during his time on The Tonight Show. ~Ben

    Here's Boomer (1980-82)... wow, and they're selling both seasons separately at the same time! Gotta get these two soon! I just hope the 1979 Blue Mountain is intact on season 1, and the '81 version on season 2! ~Ben
