The moderator of the Bowery Boys Yahoo group has a relationship with Leo Gorcey Jr. Recently he posted an e-mail he received from Leo Jr. A portion of it said
Obviously this has not been confirmed by the studio and there is no indication as to when these will be released. Still, if this is true, it is very good news for fans of the Bowery Boys everywhere. I am a bit surprised that Warners would commit to releasing all 48 films up front, but if they're willing to put 'em out, I'm willing to buy 'em.
Although Leo's post contradicts this, I would hope that the the 4 DVDs mentioned above are double features (the films are quite short) which mean 8 features would be released each go around, greatly speeding up the time needed to get the entire series out. This model has worked for Universal and their classic films.
