Leave it to beaver season 3? (1 Viewer)

[Larry.P]

Just addressing an earlier note:
The Incredible Hulk Season 1 is on single-sided disks, not double-sided. I just finished watching them all.

 

[TravisR]

That's even more to suggest that LITB will be single sided too then.

 

[Mike Frezon]

Bring on Season 3!


I seem to be in the minority on this one. I prefer young Beaver.

That is, I find the earlier episodes to have much more warmth than the later ones when Beaver gets all geeky and awkward. The simple storylines with a basic message for the kids and parents are what make the show for me.

Don't get me wrong....it's all good. But the earlier episodes rule!

FYI.....

Someone at the SitcomsOnline.com LITB Forum has posted one video screen-capture for each of the first 78 Beaver episodes (encompassing all of Season 1 and Season 2). This must have taken quite a bit of time to accomplish. Some very good screen grabs in here. .....

My two favorites from the above batch (from the episodes "Wally's Haircomb" and "The Haunted House", respectively):

I'll be an eager Beaver Buyer...whenever they're released. The show is highly nostalgic in my case...being exactly midway between Beav & Wally in age. Automobiles...clothing styles...kitchen appliances...radios and television sets...it's all perfect.

Hey! Now I know what to watch. Nothin' good on the tube... I'll put in Beaver Season Two!

Well, we've almost passed a Thanksgiving release date if we use the previous LITB 3 month's in advance notices. We are just about to enter into September, so if this volume is going to make it in 2006 Universal needs to get a going.

Gary "this series needs to get fast-tracked, Universal. Fast-tracked I tell ya" O.

Paramount did a great job on getting 2 of their classics from the same era out on dvd I Love lucy all six seasons and The andy griffith show all eight seasons by december of this year. without a doubt Leave it to beaver falls into the same category as these two other shows and universal studios cannot possibly drop the ball on this classic.

 

[marcSo]

Its august 29th. and still no word on a release date for season 3.if universal is going to keep this series on a 6 month release schedule.which is what seasons 1 and 2 were on.then an announcent needs to be really soon.hopefully season 2 sales were good enough to warrant season's 3 through 6.

 

[Gary OS]

Yep, I'm starting to get just a tad worried. Not worried that the series is being shelved, but worried that the bi-yearly schedule is going to be abandoned. I wouldn't worry about the entire series collecting dust unless we got to the end of this year with no release date for Season 3. If that happened, I'd be very concerned.

Gary "I am bummed about there being no info on a release date for the fall, since I thought we'd have that news by now" O.

[Gary OS]

Double for me!

Gary "come on Universal, get with it" O.

You can try going to Universal's site and sign up to be notified when Leave it to Beaver future seasons are released: Click below:

http://signup.universalstudios.com/form/264

It will take you to an order form and you can proceed to fill out the information and check "Leave it to Beaver" for the show that you are interested in. There is safety in numbers, so this might help! If you are concerned about bulk e-mails or mailing lists, use an alternate (but legit) e-mail address to sign up that is seperate from important family, school, or work accounts.

I sent universal an email the other day asking about season 3.and their response was no information is available at this time.and to check their website.typical answer but I thought I would try anyway.I was really hoping for season 3 by the end of the year.but we will see.

 

[Xenia Stathakopoulou]

I wouldnt worry just yet, they could announce it at the end of october and release it at the end of december.

 

[Mike Frezon]

Thanks, Jack!

 

[Gary OS]

Ok, I'm moving up another degree on the "concerned" scale with this release. Still no news about Season 3!!! What gives, Universal?!!

Gary "I'm now at the point where I will officially beg Gord to look into this and give us some info - please!!!!" O.

 

[marcSo]

yeah.We really need some news on this.To me this would be like if paramount had stopped after season 2 of I love Lucy.

 

[Gary OS]

Ok, Gord's seemingly innocent comment on the "Quincy Season 3" thread has me sick to my stomach. I'm really beginning to panic, thinking that Universal is going to slow this series way down or, worse yet, abandon it altogether due to possible low sales.

Admittedly, Gord didn't say anything about LITB specifically in his post but he did say he felt that most of Universal's classic tv had sold poorly. If that holds up (I couldn't get a read on whether or not Gord was stating the low sales as fact or just that he had a feeling about it) it doesn't make me feel too good about Season 3 coming any time soon.

Gary "dang it, that really has me down tonight" O.
