The Thin Man (1957) (3 Viewers)

[Baenwort]

So I've received a request from my Pawpaw to find him the TV show from 1957 since I succeeded in finding him a way to watch another old TV favorite of his.

However, I haven't had any luck locating a home media release of this show?

Can anyone help me? Even if OOP it would help to now of past releases I can hunt for.

I've never seen a series set for The Thin Man. A couple of individual episodes have been included as bonus features on other discs, but that's all I've ever seen.

Perhaps a few of the rare-video websites might have The Thin Man series. Thomas Film Classics comes to mind, as well as Loving The Classics -- both sites have a lot of rare videos. Google them.

The Thin Man blu ray contains an episode as does the Forbidden Planet blu ray. I think the TV series would be a popular release, especially in HD. This would be a question for George.

Agreed.

But Thomas has a really nice set of each of the two seasons of Thin Man.

I had a lot of them from years ago but then Get-TV ran them a few years ago, nicely remastered and complete.
