Since I last posted a list like this in 2013, SIX of my shows have come out in Complete Series sets. Here's what's left::
IT'S A LIVING - Snowball's chance in h*ll with Paul Kreppel singing snippets of popular songs in nearly all of the 130 episodes made. I'd even take just the first 3 years with Ann Jillian but Never Gonna Happen. So glad I finally have the entire run minus one episode; makes that fact more bearable. At least it's reportedly coming to Logo.
ALICE - Warner's has got this show rolling again. I am hopeful the last 3 seasons will be out soon.
POLICE WOMAN - Only one more Season left and I think Shout will come though on this one.
THE DONNA REED SHOW - We have the Shelley years and are now stuck with Trisha, but the later seasons have the late great Bob Crane, so it's a tradeoff. I heard Sony would not give MPI the time of the day when approached.
PHYLLIS - In the minority for sure, but I always preferred the MTM trilogy in the opposite order of it's popularity, so "Phyllis" is my favorite of the three followed by "Rhoda", then "Mary". With "Lou Grant" wrapping up soon, Shout should put this out next.
THE ANN SOTHERN SHOW (and SUSIE) - I liked the second incarnation set in the hotel better, but this show may be too old now to ever see a release.
ALFRED HITCHCOCK HOUR - Only recently have I become hooked on "Presents" so now I would love to see S7 and the hour-long series come out.
MURPHY BROWN - Like "It's a Living", another WB show that we'll never see due to music in nearly every episode. Not as big of a want as it was now that I scored the complete series uncut from Encore, but would still like it nontheless.
MY THREE SONS - Another show I own complete via bootleg, but the transfers done by CBS were amazing! Too bad they ruined it by re-dubbing the score. With 10 more seasons left to go, and CBS releasing split-seasons, this one's too cumbersome an undertaking for them to resume IMO.
HONORABLE MENTIONS - Not really Grail shows, but I'd pick these up in a heartbeat:
THE HOGAN FAMILY - One of the rare Miller-Milkis shows I actually can tolerate.
THE PAUL LYNDE SHOW - For the sheer curiosity and ludicrousness of seeing the sneering "Center Square" cast as a family man.
JULIA - Diahann Carroll's groundbreaking 1968-71 series.
HOT L BALTIMORE - Controversial curiosity from Norman Lear
ALL THAT GLITTERS - See above (and with a pre-"Dallas" Linda Gray cast as a transsexual).
227 - I have the complete run from Encore Black, but would buy official
