Someone please explain the situation with Punky Brewster S3 and S4... (1 Viewer)

When Shout! Factory got the rights to the show, I assumed they licensed all four seasons, but apparently this is not the case. On another thread I posted some contextual info on why this might be:


I assume this means Sony owns the home video rights to seasons 3 and 4. They say they do not license products to third parties, but then why did they license:

—Get a Life (to Rhino)
—Naked City (to Image)
—dozens of shows (to Columbia House)

And since Shout! Factory product is distributed by Sony Music, could an exception be made?

Gord?

I e-mailed Shout! Factory about this and they have not given up the fight sums up their intentions pretty much. I don't know why there is a problem, maybe it is selling so good that they want to handle it in the main office?

Well, that's nice to hear.
