What ZIV Television Series Would You want to see on Blu Ray or DVD? (1 Viewer)

[The 1960's]

How is your quality on Mr. Hex? I recorded all of the movies when TCM ran them and the print they used on that movie was abysmal. Out of focus for part of the film.
I would love to get decent quality on the Eastside Kids movies as I prefer them to the Bowery Boys. Would mind finding the Universal series either, although those were not very good.

My recording of Mr. Hex is decent quality, no blurry or out of focus scenes like on the print from TCM.

I also have the 22 East Side Kids movies, also have Universal's Dead End Kids/Little Tough Guys movies with Billy Halop. The last entry in the Universal series, Keep Em Slugging, Halop isn't in that one and instead Bobby Jordan has the lead role in place of Halop. Picture quality varies from film to film but everything is watchable.

Completely off-topic but FYI ... 16 Bowery Boys films (1946-1949) here, and another 5 (1950-1952), here. All free downloads and fairly nice quality via the Internet Archive.

I have a Highway Patrol set that was released back in the late ‘90s in single season box sets. The ZIV series I want is Whirlybirds and The Everglades

Whirlybirds was produced by Desilu, so it's CBS property

Status of those Desilu/ CBS shows like this one or December Bride was always been vague with Desilu long defunct, and CBS having no interest.

"How about the one hour long Dick Powell Show from 1961-1963. Has that ever gotten a release anywhere? Who owns it?"

A few weeks ago I noticed Talking Pictures TV (UK) promoting the entire series streaming on their website. I checked the website and never could find it, just the usual one episode a week that they've been posting. They have a bunch of four-star tv series for online viewing which are pretty good transfers but they are 25fps so there's a bit of PAL speedup to deal with.

The Dick Powell Show/Theatre, of course when Powell died, any intros he did were replaced by a succession of guest hosts. And being a Four Star series, it belongs with Disney.
