Looking forward to the upcoming ANGEL series.

A&C Season 2 was excellent. 👏

Straightaway a.k.a. The Racers, in it's only season on ABC in 1961-62, srarring Brian Kelly and John Ashley, could be a possibility, because it was a Racer Production, do you think it's possible, David?

We've looked into it, and it's high on the list, but music clearance may be an issue. We'll know more later this year.

I know it's changed hands a few times but what about "The Bill Dana Show" Last time I remember seeing it broadcast anywhere was CBN and has certainly been out of syndication and viewing for many years now.

I looked into it some time back and hit a dead end. Can't remember the circumstances.

Shame, as that sounds interesting though I'm not familiar with it. Bill Dana's guest appearances on The Golden Girls as Sophia's brother, Angelo (and once as her father, too), were always a highlight.

Though from what I've read on Wikipedia, it sounds like there may be some touchy cultural issues related to the show.

I'm guessing you can't get it, but I'd love to see Waterfront. Might be with MCA/Universal though, so probably wouldn't be doable. Same with Boston Blackie. It'd be an incredible get for ClassicFlix, but probably not feasible.

Not sure about WATERFRONT. MGM owns BOSTON BLACKIE so that won't be happening.

Two volumes are on DVD. I know cause I bought'em in 2015 and 2019. Not great but not bad.

So, PD shows where complete acceptable elements exist have the best chance of being released. How about similar shows owned by estates of the original producers?
For example, Adventures Of Wild Bill Hickok which I believe Guy Madison owned? Or Ramar Of The Jungle which I believe Jon Hall owned?
I also wonder about some “lost” shows like Rescue 8, or Hey Landord?

Rescue 8 is very high on my list. Would really love to see that released. Ramar of the Jungle had a substantial release via alpha many years ago. Quite a few volumes.

Yes, PD shows, even if not complete, would potentially be on the list, however, we're overloaded with content right now and won't be looking at acquiring anything new until later this year/early next.
