[Jack P]

There is a difference on some levels between "extant" and "available" so I will just go for broke on the "extant" list. One title I have to leave off because of the Universal fire is "Switch". Because I have only one 90s title, that means each decade gets one extra title to compensate!

50s
Sheena, Queen of the Jungle (whatever prints the Nassour heirs have)
The Alaskans (the last western I'm interested in having)
Jack Benny Show
Burns And Allen (I have a great boot set but what the heck)
One Step Beyond (finish with quality prints)
G.E. Theater

60s
Burke's Law (FINISH!!!!)
Alfred Hitchcock Presents/Hour (FINISH!!!!!)
Joey Bishop Show (Finish) (This is the longest stalled title on DVD I know of)
The Ghost And Mrs. Muir
The Green Hornet
Peyton Place (only to the end of the Stella Chernak storyline)

70s
Ironside (Finish)
McCloud (Finish with S1 redone in R1)
Operation Petticoat
Marcus Welby MD (Finish)
Project UFO
Cliffhangers

80s
Love Boat (FINISH!)
Fantasy Island (FINISH!) (for both shows, the unreleased portion is 80s)
Crazy Like A Fox
Goodnight Beantown
The Law And Harry McGraw (would like a R1 version; I have R4)
Amazing Stories (Finish)

90s
Tarzan: The Epic Adventures

[Dave Lawrence]

1950s
City Detective
Dragnet
The George Burns and Gracie Allen Show / The George Burns Show
Our Miss Brooks
Private Secretary / The Ann Sothern Show [Ok, this one's a cheat as they're really 2 wholly separate shows (not a continuation), but they've both got the same basic cast, and from what I've read the 2nd show only came about after a contract dispute with the 1st show's producer.]
Tightrope!

1960s

* With only 2 shows for the 2000s and 1 show for the 2010s, I used the extra slots in the other decades.
** Like Jack, I didn't include Switch. As much as I'd like to see it released, it's not possible due to the fire. So it falls into the unavailable category. (On the other hand, a couple of my choices are unlikely due to music issues, but at least they could conceivably be released.)

eighties / nineties & later;

The Next Step Beyond
Burke's Law (revived series)
Bodies of Evidence (Starring Lee Horsley & George Clooney)
- a seemingly 'forgotten' show (!)
The Fugitive (Tim Daly version)

does anybody remember a show called 'TRUE' ?
- a bit like 'One Step Beyond' but re (supposedly) True weird events, it was a USA 30 minute episode show in the sixties I think where real incidents were re-created with actors & a Rod Serling / John Newland compare introduced and concluded each episode...

also 'HAVOC' or maybe 'When HAVOC Struck' - a show of 30 minute episodes re real life disasters narrated by Glenn Ford (the Morro Castle fire at sea, an earthquake in Canada, Hurricane 'Camille' were three episodes that used vintage news footage & interviewed survivors etc)

 

[skylark68]

I'm not a huge TV show fan in general but there are a few that I would like to see.

I have to second the earlier post for the complete uncensored Beavis and Butthead episodes.

Dukes of Hazzard on blu ray

The remaining seasons of CHiPs on DVD (or start over with a complete blu ray set).

Voyagers on blu ray

Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew on blu ray (all 3 seasons).

A remastered "In Search Of..." on blu ray now that Nimoy has passed. (I have the VCI DVD set which is okay but needs a lot of cleaning up).

 

[GMBurns]

Not sure about the realistic part. Other than one title that VEI may be working (Jake and the Fatman) I don't think any of these have a real chance. But it's fun to dream, so if I really could have any 5 shows I want (remastered, unedited, original music) from each decade they would be:

1950's
77 Sunset Strip
Decoy
Five Fingers
Trackdown
Tightrope

1960's
Burke's Law S2
T.H.E. Cat
Michael Shayne
The Islanders
Outsider

1970's
Cade's County
Hec Ramsey
Kingston Confidential

Switch

1980's
Jake and the Fatman S3-5
Crazy Like a Fox
Mancuso FBI
Blacke's Magic
The Law and Harry McGraw

1990's
Over My Dead Body
Burke's Law redux

 

[Ian K McLachlan]

Mine would be -

Lassie (Jeff's Collie)
Richard Diamond

Cowboy in Africa

[Peter M Fitzgerald]

For Me
does anybody remember a show called 'TRUE' ?
- a bit like 'One Step Beyond' but re (supposedly) True weird events, it was a USA 30 minute episode show in the sixties I think where real incidents were re-created with actors & a Rod Serling / John Newland compare introduced and concluded each episode...

Do you mean these?

 

[Brian Himes]

Well, since I collect mainly shows from the 70's I'll split my guess into two categories. Animated (Saturday Morning) and Prime-time releases.

Prime-time

Phyllis
Rhoda (finish)
Hot L Baltimore (if Sony continues with it's MOD program)
Chico and the Man
Nanny and the Professor (only if Shout can get it, otherwise no dice)

Animated

The Banana Splits
These Are The Days
Archie's TV Funnies
US of Archie
Mister Jaw

I really don't have all that much left on my 70's Prime-time want list that would realistically come out. I'd love to see Baretta finished but due to the Universal fire that isn't going to happen. Just about every one of my favorites have come out and have been completed with the exception of Rhoda and Room 222. I'd like to see Police Woman, Police Story, The Rookies, Marcus Welby, M.D. and Love American Style get finished but I've given up hope on that happening.

 

[Josh Steinberg]

The ones that immediately come to mind:

1950s-1960s:
- Any unreleased Disneyland / The Wonderful World Of Color / Disney's Wonderful World Of Color shows that Walt himself hosted. There are a handful available on now out-of-print Walt Disney Treasures sets but I would happily spend big bugs for more.

1970s:
- The New Dick Van Dyke Show

2000s:
- $#*! My Dad Says

2010s:
- Agent Carter Season 2 (this apparently has just been announced for a UK release at least)

 

[JamesSmith]

Mine for right now:

1960's
Race For Your Life
The Farmer's Daughter
It's About Time
Love on a Rooftop
Hardy Boys (animated)


1970's
Hey Ramsey
Manhunter
Dirty Sally
Petrocelli
Plastic Man Adventures (Baby Plas)


1980's
the complete animated Alf and Alftales
Domestic Life
Detective in the House (Judd Hirsch six episodes)
Wildfire

2000's
Tim Daly Fugitive series


James

 

[Ed Lachmann]

These would be 50's to 60's and I know that decent masters have been used recently for broadcasts of Bachelor Father, not sure about how much exists for People's Choice. Would sure love to have both of these complete in disc form.
