You're very welcome, Bob, I'm glad you enjoyed the article!
Good to know that there is still a little hope with a possible deal for a Season 6 DVD release...I truly hope a deal is made! There really is no reason the last 3 seasons cannot be put out as well. But time will tell.Greg2356 said:To: HunterMan/Drew-> You're also quite welcome! The article was indeed well written and like you say, nice and positive!! As for Season 6, I haven't lost hope yet until Mary writes to me and says NO Deal! As of now, they are still working on some type of a deal. Have a Great Day!
Ron,Ron1973 said:Greg, I don't have too many memories of the show. It never syndicated here and we didn't have cable as a kid out here when it was on the N@N run. I did catch one episode when we were visiting Nashville in the 80's I believe. You have an obvious dedication to the show and that's what our old shows need is for someone to be a voice for them. It sounds like a show worthy of a blind buy.
FWIW, I was just asking my mother about it. She loved it and said it was a great show.
Bob: This is the third time, I've tried to answer you! I answered you twice on page 9 with using a very peculiar method to do so... You see, my computer was a Wreck, but now I have finally gotten it straightened out!!You're very welcome Bob in regards to my sharing the article concerning the putting together of 'Season 4' from "The Donna Reed Show!" I am so very glad you enjoyed the article!!BobO'Link said:Thanks for sharing Greg! That's a very nice article!
I wondered what was up. I saw both of those!Greg2356 said:Bob: This is the third time, I've tried to answer you! I answered you twice on page 9 with using a very peculiar method to do so...

Shelly was a big part of the chemistry of the show. It did lose something when she left.AlanP said:Never enjoyed the series after Shelley left though... Just me
True, but one of the strengths of the series for me is its slice-of-life stories, which rarely get into some of the more outlandish aspects of other family sitcoms. That's why it is somewhat jarring for this very believable family to have a stange kid follow them home from the park that winds up living with them.swan4022 said:Just like in real life, families change, I guess we have to accept change even in the fantasyland of the Stone family who we all love to visit.
According to the post above from February, MPI will be re-releasing Seasons 1-3 with improvements.Greg2356 said:Hello from "The Donna Reed Show" insider. lol.. Mary Owen has let me know that Seasons 6-8 are still being held up! MPI had a very positive meeting with a man from Sony Pictures, but then they turned over negotiations to someone else concerning MPI getting the rights to release seasons 6-8 on DVD. The person they turned over these talks to appears to have a poor attitude and lousy disposition in general. She doesn't want to talk about this subject and won't even answer any emails from MPI. She says if they don't make a big deal about getting these Donna Reed Show seasons and make a simple agreement, Sony will consider letting MPI release seasons 6-8 on DVD. MPI will try to negotiate again with "Sony Pictures" in the month of March. And the reason for this delay with MPI trying to convince Sony to let them release these seasons is because "Sony Pictures" right now is in the middle of downsizing and will be firing a lot of their employees. So this month of February is pretty much a mess for "Sony Pictures" studio.In the meantime, there is some better news to report: MPI is going to be working on Seasons 1-3 in regards to "The Donna Reed Show" and re-releasing them on DVD. Some fans didn't really approve of the technical quality on Seasons 1-3 which were done by another studio, so MPI is planning to improve the technical quality of these first three seasons which concern "The Donna Reed Show." I am excited about this...
