Templejazz Posted June 17, 2003 Report Posted June 17, 2003 (edited) Not really a classic, but I'd also like to see Quantum Leap, w/ Dean Stockwell and Scott Bakula appear on DVD at some point. It's currently on Sci Fi though so it'll probably be a while before this happens. Edited June 17, 2003 by Templejazz Quote
ajf67 Posted June 17, 2003 Report Posted June 17, 2003 I"ll add my vote for DVDs of The Rockford Files... Quote
Noj Posted June 17, 2003 Report Posted June 17, 2003 A few that I've enjoyed: First season of South Park Beavis & Butthead Anyone remember Amazing Stories? That's one I'd like to see again. Quote
BruceH Posted June 17, 2003 Report Posted June 17, 2003 I'm still waiting for the #&*@@ third season of The Simpsons'!! You and me both! What the Hell is the holdup on that, I wonder? It's not like it won't sell. Quote

dave9199 Posted June 17, 2003 Report Posted June 17, 2003 The Simpsons is coming out in August last I saw on Amazon. Looking forward to the second set of Family Guy. I wish it was still on aside from reruns on Cartoon Network. Quote
Guest Mnytime Posted June 17, 2003 Report Posted June 17, 2003 I'm pretty sure Miles Davis was featured playing live in a jazz club in one episode. it also featured such actors as Kevin Spacey and Julia Roberts very early in their careers. Remember Miles' guest spot on Miami Vice? I think he played a pimp. And then there was Miles' Honda(?) commercial (bike, not car).... Spacey I first saw as Mel Profitt on Wiseguy, a show that for a cuppla seasons was one of the best things on. The Wiseguys was an excellent show for the first two seasons. Mel "The Toes Knows" Profit was a classic character. This is making me feel old since I actually saw these shows in their first original runs. Actually I think Quantum Leap was a classic. Oh Boy. So was Kolchack:The Night Stalker. Have they put out a DVD of The Prisoner? Noj Amazing Stories was anything but Amazing. Quote

The Family Guy First Set has been in my DVD for the past week.....Hilarious show....kind of a cross between The Simpsons and South Park. Totally insane. I wish it was still on and wonder why Fox pulled it. I wouldn't be surprised if it received complaints, as it demolished anything and everything for the hell of it. Quote

Fox would not have pulled it because of complaints. Most of their shows received complaints. I get the impression they prefer them to get complaints. It gets the shows a lot of free ads. It most likely wasn't getting the ratings to keep it on. Quote
BERIGAN Posted June 17, 2003 Author Report Posted June 17, 2003 I'm still waiting for the #&*@@ third season of The Simpsons'!! Aug 26th, a year to the day that season 2 came out...but you can imagine how hard it is to get a few directors and producers together(They have yet to let/have the actors comment on the DVDs)to sit down and watch 22, 22 minute long shows and reminisce for the audio commentary track! Quote
BERIGAN Posted June 17, 2003 Author Report Posted June 17, 2003 Hey, for those who mentioned wiseguy...good news! http://www.dvdplanet.com/product_listing.a...4137&format=DVD Quote
Guest Mnytime Posted June 17, 2003 Report Posted June 17, 2003 (edited) I love jumptheshark--have killed some time there during slow work-periods, reacquainting myself w/some of the shows I watched as a kid. Two I really want on DVD are "The Dick Van Dyke Show" (Season 1 on the way this fall) and "Hill Street Blues." And this obscurity: Before "Sex and the City," there was: Anybody else remember this early-80's show w/Sarah Jessica Parker? Your picture is not showing on my screen, but the only show from the early 80's that I recall Parker being on is Square Pegs. Hard to believe if you saw that show that Parker would even be considered a Sex Symbol by people at any time. I understand the girl who played her friend teaches 2nd graders now.

jazzbo Posted June 17, 2003 Report Posted June 17, 2003 People actually consider her a sex symbol? Wow. I've never seen S. W. A. T and many other shows in this thread. I think I only ever watched SNL during the seventies! It was the eighties that TV captured me. There aren't many tv shows I really want to see again that aren't readily available. The Dick Van Dyke Show---yeah, that would be a hoot to see. I like the early years of Bewitched too and haven't seen any of that show for a long time. There was one show that was on that I'd like to see again because it just lasted a short period and then disappeared and I've never seen a minute of it since: "City of Angels." Was an attempt to be Chandleresque. I remember it being entertaining for fans of his work. And there was one recent show I wished would have succeded, by the makers of "Seinfeld": "It's Like You Know." Also, I didn't get to see too many of Bonnie Hunts' shows, and I'd like to; I find her very attractive in many ways! (I think she writes and acts well.) Quote

Yep, as scary as the thought might be to you and I, Parker is a Sex Symbol to many. And they are not blind or IQ challanged. Many of the shows you want to see are on TV Land. Quote
Dan Gould Posted June 18, 2003 Report Posted June 18, 2003 Hey, Mny, behind those geeky glasses I saw a lot of potential! Potential fullfilled, I might add Quote
Use3D Posted June 18, 2003 Report Posted June 18, 2003 People actually consider her a sex symbol? Wow. Yeah, I think she's freakin hideous. Quote
Guest Mnytime Posted June 18, 2003 Report Posted June 18, 2003 (edited) It appears from the pictures he chose to post that Parker is a Sex Symbol for Dan just as long as it's from the back and or long distance that he is looking at her. Edited June 18, 2003 by Mnytime Quote
jazzbo Posted June 18, 2003 Report Posted June 18, 2003 Well Mnytime I don't have, or want to have, cable, so I don't see those shows on TVLand. Quote
Aggie87 Posted July 10, 2003 Report Posted July 10, 2003 Perhaps the powers that be heard me... Due out on 16 September Quote
Jim R Posted July 10, 2003 Report Posted July 10, 2003 This thread is making me feel old. Most of the shows being mentioned are much later than the ones I would choose... I have a nostalgia for 60's-era shows. We have cable, but TV-Land doesn't quite have the variety I'd like to see. It IS good to see them airing things like Dick Van Dyke and Get Smart, though. The Hallmark channel is also offering some classics. For DVD, I'd like to see some things that are hard (or impossible) to find on cable. COMBAT!, the WWII drama starring Vic Morrow, would be my top choice. I'm actually more of a comedy fan when it comes to TV shows, but this show featured some great writing, and great acting. I used to watch it in reruns during the 70's, and I recall one local station doing a marathon where they ran all the episodes sequentially. Wish I'd had a VCR at the time. Anybody know if "The Wild Wild West" (the original TV show) has come out on DVD? Mission Impossible? McHale's Navy? How about "F Troop"? Quote

COMBAT!, the WWII drama starring Vic Morrow, would be my top choice. I'm actually more of a comedy fan when it comes to TV shows, but this show featured some great writing, and great acting. To my surprise, I stumbled onto two boxed sets today, while at one of my favorite CD shops that also has videos. A total of 8 DVD's, including the first 32 episodes. Quote
ghost of miles Posted September 24, 2004 Report Posted September 24, 2004 Probably not old enough to be considered classic, but finally coming to DVD: Seinfeld Haven't read through this thread yet, but has "Hill Street Blues" made it to DVD yet? I used to watch "S.W.A.T." when I was a kid just for the opening theme music. Quote
BruceH Posted September 24, 2004 Report Posted September 24, 2004 Ah yes, the days of S.W.A.T. and the Planet of the Apes TV series... Who says the '70s were a cultural wasteland? Quote
