They were the best in the way back === Batman, Superman, The Little Rascals, The Munsters, F Troop StarTrek Yogi Bear etc now its ten different judges and yelling and screaming yet thankfully they are also Antenna TV === but if Adv Of Superman gets the love it deserves I bet pple will buy in!I'm sure I will get hell for it but I'll note I don't buy TV series on disk.

Back in the DVD days, I had a habit of buying a TV series (then-current ones) on DVD if it was one I watched regularly. At some point, I realized that my wife and I tended to default to watching those shows in reruns instead of the discs. I think the final break was buying the first season of The Big Bang Theory on BD, and eventually realizing that that show would always be available in syndication. Virtually any evening of the week, when we're killing time between watching the evening news, and waiting for something to come on later, we'd turn to TBS or one of the local stations running TBBT and have it on in the background while doing something else.
There are still some shows that I care about enough to want to have on disc. But as time goes by, I'm more inclined to start triaging, and limit myself to shows that I really, really want to have around.

Or watch them on Antenna TV and MeTV === boggles the mind that that indies like PIX wont bring them back ---- a contact of mine used to work at PIX now at WABC says the ratings on the Judge shows have been tanking for years. Bet they would save moolah by getting classic shows back on and even better ratingsThe random-ish flow-of-consciousness feel of this post fits my feeling for those sorts of shows exactly, LOL... which is precisely why I (and some others) are fine w/ *not* owning such, especially on discs, but just catch whichever of them whenever... much like dem "good ole days" of syndicated reruns on "free" TV, haha...
Of course, there are some old classics that are harder to find via streaming, especially in good quality. For instance, I (and many others) have been buying the recent series of ClassicFlix BD releases of The Little Rascals.
I do also have the BD set of The Honeymooners (and of course, Star Trek TOS and TNG) that Paramount released some years ago, but there are no quality BDs of The Munsters and some others though.
But if I could own all those fairly cheaply on good quality HD digital or simply stream them via quality subscription service, I'd rather do that instead now.

I got in trouble once about saying I do not like the movies today ---- same with TV I stick with the 50's 60s the shows I watched on WPIX and WNEW give me Father Knows Best - You Bet Your Life Phil Silvers Star Trek Lost In Space etc all the Screen Gems too. Although I loved SeinfeldI like to have favourite television series on disc as much as film (currently watching Billions S2 blu ray, looks like 4k). It's very irritating when S1 of a show is on blu but the others (if released at all) are on DVD.
I prefer the best of both worlds, at least for favorites. I like the idea of ownership and knowing I can watch any show I have any time I want, without caring about what service it may be on or whether I get that service or not. However, I also like ability to scan my collection from where I sit and bounce around shows easily within a given evening. Buying the media, while extracting the content for storage on a local media server provides the best of both worlds.I'm sure I will get hell for it but I'll note I don't buy TV series on disk.
