Hello, Group

Scott the lurker here.

I'm just curious. Have we Ozzie and Harriet fans all but given up trying to get one of the major cable networks--e.g. American Life Network, Hallmark Channel, Disney channel (which aired it once long ago)--to run the series ? Or is there hope that it will once again grace the airwaves ?

Sheesh ! With all the specialized channels nowadays (sports, news, soap operas, cartoons, movies, animals, etc. soon to include "Sleuth," a channel for police/detective shows), you'd think somebody out there would come up with a "classic tv" channel !

Don't forget to try to get the show on the Independent Television network (formerly PAX). That channel only has 6 or 7 hours of shows, the rest of the time is infomercials.

I am hoping for season sets on DVD.

I don't know... When they produce only a "best of" series of tapes, I wonder whether there is any hope of them coming out with a season by season series of DVD's. (Has any other tv series ever been released first as a "best of" series before coming out season by season ?)

I just hope they weren't foolishly producing such a collection with the intent of "testing the waters" regarding whether people would be interested enough to make a season by season release worthwhile. There will undoubtedly be a lot of people NOT buying the "best of" collection simply because they're waiting for them to release the series the "right" way. :)

BTW, some time back I contacted Ron Defore (Don "Thorny" Defore's son) at his website (which honors his dad's career) and he said he was going to try to get in touch with David Nelson to ask his what's what regarding the series' future. I haven't heard back.

Scott,

I have given up on David releasing the series...and am working on making my own. I am looking for trades of good quality VHS or DVD copies to fill in holes I have in my collection. Do you have any at this time? I am about 2/3 done...Let me know if you have any to trade by sending me titles....thanks!
