And now with the passing of Patty Duke, IT TAKES TWO (1982-83, ABC). I am surprised with its' accomplished cast including Richard Crenna, Anthony Edwards and Helen Hunt, WA hasn't released this yet. Perhaps now they will consider it.

I liked the couple of episodes I saw of It Takes Two. I believe it's owned by Sony, not Warner, so Warner Archive isn't an option.

I revived a similar thread earlier this week to mention wanting Patty Duke's 2 short-lived 80s series It Takes Two and Hail to the Chief.

http://www.hometheaterforum.com/com...released-but-probably-wont-t-se.329212/page-3

Looking further back in that thread, I see that I'd listed some of the 1-season and 2-season shows I'd be interested in. I can't say I'm surprised that, all these months later, none of them have been released so far.

I do have additional shows I would add to my earlier list. Fortunately, at least a few are supposedly going to be coming out from VEI, such as The Magician. Others, such as King of Diamonds, I predict will remain a want and not a have.

Dirty Sally
Manhunter
Hunter (Linda Evans series)
Fantastic Journey
Remember Wenn
Domestic life
Captain nice
Sierra
And some Saturday morning cartoons which are short enough to be consider short lived series
Hec ramsey
Salvage one,
Occasional Wife

Some of these programs were pretty inventive and just never given a proper chance.
