I know a couple of episodes of The Immortal were released a couple of years ago or so.

I think we will see Logan's Run teh series when Bryan Singer helms teh remake.

Er, legal ones? I've seen a bootleg set that pops up on eBay every now and then, but I've never heard of a legit release. (And we are all talking about the Christopher George series, right?)

In response to two titles I saw in this thread...
I thought they announced "Grosse Pointe" for DVD and
There was a TV version of "Adventures in Babysitting?!?
And while we're at it, I'll just continue repeating my wish that the ABC version of Max Headroom will someday be available on DVD.
And hell, for chuckles, how about a box set of both the live action and animated versions of "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventures"? Keanu even did Ted's voice in some of the animated episodes!
And has anyone noticed Universal's upcoming line of "Brilliant But Cancelled" DVDs?

I'd buy "The Mothers-in-Law" in a heartbeat.
As for "Valley of the Dolls," I could be mistaken, but I believe the TV incarnations are included as extras in the upcoming Fox release of the movie on DVD.

Tales of the Gold Monkey (1982) ...I can't even begin to express how badly I want this damn show...
Otherworld (1985) ...I barely remember this show. Something about an Egyptian pyramid and alternate/parallel earths. I remember thinking it was cool though. I might buy it.
Turnabout (1979) ...okay, I probably wouldn't actually buy this, but I'd Netflix it for sure!
My Life and Times (1991) ...only 6 episodes, but it was a great show. I'd snap it up in a heartbeat.

Most of my "short-lived" wishlist entries have already been mentioned, but not all. Any of these shows would be instant buys for me if they were released.
In no particular order:
Tremors - TV spinoff of the movie franchise
Night Visions - short-lived horror-oriented anthology
James At 15/16
Legend - Richard Dean Anderson
Emerald Point N.A.S - Richard Dean Anderson
Seven Brides For Seven Brothers - Richard Dean Anderson
The Quest - Tim Matheson / Kurt Russell western
Tarzan - short-lived WB show with Mitch Pileggi and Lucy Lawless
The Invisible Man - 70's version with David McCallum
My Two Dads - Paul Reiser / Greg Evigan
BJ & The Bear / Sheriff Lobo - speaking of Greg Evigan...
Day By Day - fabulous ensemble cast (including an early Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Courtney Thorne-Smith)
Man From Atlantis
Gemini Man
The Phoenix
Chase - early 70's Mitchell Ryan series
Fifteen - OK, I admit it...this one had me hooked
Ghost Story - this one: http://imdb.com/title/tt0068074/
The Magician
Touching Evil - needs a full-series release
The Kids From C.A.P.E.R.
E.R. - Elliott Gould and (coincidentally) a young George Clooney
Scene Of The Crime - Stephen J Cannell "Crimetime After Primetime" anthology showcasing a brilliant troupe of players
A few short-lived favorites which are already reality, or announced/on the way:
Alien Nation
The Adventures Of Brisco County Jr.
Jack Of All Trades
American Gothic
The Lone Gunmen
Keen Eddie
Kolchak The Night Stalker
The Job
Eerie, Indiana

Already mentioned, but worth seconding:
(1) Night Visions (Warner, 2001)
(2) Special Unit 2 (Paramount, 2001) (By the way, I think it was Les Moonves, new head of CBS + UPN, not the head of Paramount, who killed the show.)
(3) the crypto-classic Way Out (originally broadcast on CBS, 1961; Andrew Susskind's company "Pamadisam" (LA) supposedly owns the rights to this.)
