Spin City deserves to release all the seasons that involved Michael J. Fox in the lead. I think a lot of people are waiting for the series set, but this still has recent appeal. MJF recent ABC special shows that there is still a large interest in him. I just recently noticed that the second season was out already, so part of the problem is publicity.
I voted Rhoda but I would also buy Father Knows Best, Spin City, Mr. Belvadere, My Two Dads, Paper Chase.
I also voted Rhoda. Even WITH the flawed material Shout Factory! used in the Season 1 box set, it was still the best new set of the year. Imagine what would happen with future releases of uncut, remastered episodes!
I hope you don't expect to see 1950's series, such as "Father Knows Best," get the same number of votes as many of the more recent shows. Their smaller vote totals don't mean they shouldn't be released in full, they are just not remembered by as many people any more. Besides "FKB" (all 6 seasons), I'd also buy - if you were to offer them - "Make Room For Daddy" (11 seasons), "Our Miss Brooks" (4 seasons), and the "George Burns & Gracie Allen Show" (8 seasons).
I voted for Peyton Place-I have waited so long for it-Just like I have for Dynasty and Knots Landing.
With that said I have already purchased Rhoda, Room 222, Father Knows Best and Ironside as well. Have no interest at all in the other titles.
I voted Mr Belvedere of course but would but more sets of several other series. Too bad you can only vote once and for one show. Since that's the case my vote has to go to Brocktoon. We need more Brocktoon lol. Also, where is Simon & Simon? Want to see more of that.
BLOSSOM!!
BLOSSOM!!
WHOA!!!
Shout! needs to remember that you can't just go by the polls because not everybody that would buy the seasons would vote in the polls. They also need to look at the sales. Room 222, Mr. Belvedere, Spin City and Rhoda need to see daylight again.
Actually, Adam 12 and Ironside are the only two really good shows on the list. I wish Shout Factory would do a series box for Chris Elliott's Get A Life.
He told a friend of mine that he had recorded commentary for the first
season but David Mirkin who owns the rights pulled the plug on the project.
It was only on for two seasons so Shout Factory should do a limited edition
box set. The two volumes that Rhino did back in the 90's are long out of print and go for big money on line. Even the crappy bootleg sets sell well. I wish
Mirkin would realize how many people want this out. Shout Factory should also do a Banana Splits set.
I voted My Two Dads, but I would definitely buy it and Mr. Belvedere. More 80s sitcoms please! More California Dreams too!
I would choose My Two Dads, Mr. Belvedere, and Blossom. I agree with the "More 80s Sitcoms." Would LOVE more California Dreams as well!!!!
More Adam-12 please
Rhoda Rhoda Rhoda!! Please don't make us wait too long!
Hi! First, I am grateful to Shout!Factory for releasing all of these fantastic titles. I think that each season of the these incredible shows should be released. I am an IRONSIDE fanatic, and it's really frustrating to have only two seasons out on DVD. I stronly believe that fans of each of these shows would purchase each and every season, and should have the ability to do that.
For example, the company that had the rights to The Big Valley only released 1 1/2 seasons! Their liscense to the show has since lapsed, putting the show into DVD limbo.
There as so many worthy shows, The High Chaparral comes immeditately to mind, that deserve to be released on DVD. Any seasons of these types of shows would be valuable, but a commitment to release them whole is what this fan would love to see!
So, please release the remainder of Ironside, as well as Father Knows Best, and please consider a holistic approach to these classic shows. They value is inestimable to fans, and to the history of our TV cultural history.
Thanks!
Man I love Shout! Thanks for releasing such great material from all decades that otherwise would languish and be forgotten. I voted for Mr. Belvedere, and I love all your other 80s sitcom release. I would also buy more Father Knows Best and other great 50s shows too.
I'm already dying for more Blossom.
I echo Bob Alexander's comments concerning "FATHER KNOWS BEST." It simply isn't going to fare as well in an online poll as some of the more recent series because the consumers most interested in buying it aren't as likely to be online nearly as much. I'll continue to buy 2 or 3 sets of this classic 50's show as long as Shout releases it. I hope you guys can see it through to completion. Right now it's literally the only show Shout is releasing that represents the 50's. Keep up the good work.
Spin City...keep 'em coming! More extras on each season set please. Boo to no extras on Season 2!
Adam 12 with Ironside a close second. Since Universal doesn't appear to be willing to complete the final seasons of the 1960's Dragnet, why doesn't Shout factory.
Please release more seasons of "The Paper Chase." I have thoroughly enjoyed the first season, which originally aired on CBS during the 1978-79 season, and have been anxiously hoping for the Showtime seasons that aired in the mid 1980s. "The Paper Chase" may not receive as many votes in this survey as some of the shows listed, but I hope you will soon release the rest of the series. It is a great series that deserves to find a new audience to go along with the loyal fans who have been hoping for its release for years.
More Rhoda, please! I finished Season 1 last night, and I'm already anxious for more episodes. Also, slightly OT, but thanks for not keeping fans waiting for the 2nd season of Designing Women! :)
Please release more mr belvedere.
Father Knows Best is my hands-down favorite. I've already ordered Season 3 from Amazon and will buy any additional sets released.
I voted for MY TWO DADS as I just love that series and want so badly for you to be able to release the final 2 seasons of seasons 2 and 3. Thanks ever so much for releasing this series!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would like next seasons of Adam-12, Spin City, Rhoda , and Peyton Place (can't wait for volume 2!).
Father Knows Best gets my vote. I'll buy all the season sets Shout releases! Thank you so much for putting out this wonderful sitcom that holds up as well today as it did years ago. Also, thanks for the wonderful extras on these dvds. I've really enjoyed the "Window on Main Street" episodes that Shout Factory has been including in these sets.
More Paper Chase please. It's the best show about law school and about life ever made. Keep it coming.
More "Father Knows Best", please! The best show ever. And you folks at Shout are half way through at this point (releasing Season 3 next month). There were only 6 seasons so please don't stop when you are halfway there.
I was hard pressed to decide what to vote for. I just received Peyton Place Volume I and have Volume II on pre-order. I have the first two seasons of Father's Knows Best and have three on order. I have two seasons of Adam 12 as well and Room 222. In the end, I gave my vote to Room 222 simply because I had a feeling it would have the lowest vote total. It seems I was right. I enjoyed the first season so much and hope there is more to come. I hope that for all of these series. Well, I actually don't care too much about Mr. Belevedere. Never was a fan.
i think everyone who wants their favorite show should fan and encourage all fans of their show to vote...it's been a long time since ironside season two was released....so i hope season three will come soon. Please shout?
FATHER KNOWS BEST is the series I most want to see continued. It hasn't been on TV for many, many years. The audio and video quality is top notch and I'll keep supporting this release all the way through the last season. Please keep these sets coming, Shout!
Like alot of prople that voted would like to see more belvedere
more rhoda and mr belvedere.
More 80's type shows.
I really hope Shout will put out more FATHER KNOWS BEST. That's the #1 show you guys are releasing right now. I like Emergency and Ironside as well, but Father Knows Best is really the best of them all. Thanks for releasing these episodes. Keep up the great work.
I really hope there is more my three sons.
PLEASE RELEASE THE WONDER YEARS
Need another shot of mr belvedere
Agree with the above poster please release get a life.
really like to see car 54 released.
Really like my 2 dads and mr belvedere
You guys are awesome I really want more room 222,mr belvdere,rhoda
Where is malcom and eddie and california dreams I voted for mr belvedere.
Like to see you guy run a poll on what shows shoutfactory should aquire like to webster on it.
I am so happy you guys are letting the fans decide.
I would honestly love to see empty nest on a future list I voted for mr belevdere you guys did a good job with the first set.
You guys rule!!!!!
I want to see sledgehammer with david rasche, whizkids, the wizard
There are people voting multiple times on this poll there is no way paperchase goes to 350 yesterday to 800 today.
I agree with the above poster somebody voting for paperchase is voting multiple times and hurting the chances for other shows.
Paper chase was at 403 this morning now it's at 951 somebody is not playing fair why vote if it's not going to be a fair process.
I hope Shout just throws out these poll results altogether. Several shows have been manipulated in the polls over the last 24 hours. The most egregious of these is definitely "Paper Chase." It's unfortunate that people can't just vote once and leave things be, but I've seen these online polls manipulated so many times in the past I'm not at all surprised.
I agree with gary I came on here last night and it was under spin city which I voted for and all the sudden paper chase is in the 900's something smells bad here.
I voted for adam 12 earlier and your right to get 300 votes in 2 hours is prety impossible I'm with gary paperchase should lose some of it's votes or just throw out the poll all together.
I fell like I wasted my vote this is so sad that people can't be fair.
I came here to vote for my three sons was shocked to see paper chase being so high it was below alot of the shows on the poll just yesterday. Now people have figured out a way to vote as much as they wanted why not let the boards decide what is popular and what isn't are better yet sales figures.
I want to vote for mr belvedere.
Like to see chips again.
Father knows best
Want to see more mr belvedere
Please do different strokes
Please consider too close for comfort.
Yhank you for mr belvedere.

More african american shows.
pretty please more ADAM-12
I voted for Ironside, but I wish I could've also voted for Adam-12, Father Knows Best, Peyton Place, Rhoda and Room 222 as well as the early seasons of SCTV. I have bought all of those released so far and will continue to support any future releases of those and more! Bring on more classic 1950s-70s shows, odds are I'll buy most of them.
I have thoroughly enjoyed viewing Season One of "The Paper Chase" and hope the remaining seasons of the series will be available on DVD soon. BTW, a huge thanks to Shout Factory! for securing the DVD rights to Thirty SomeThing --- I've already placed my order for season one!
SCTV
I've seen a lot of whining about the number of votes going to The Paper Chase, and they might even be legitimate complaints, but The Paper Chase IS a phenomenal show that deserves to see more seasons released. Everyone has their favorite shows, and hopefully Shout! Factory will make an effort to release complete sets of all of them.
Polls like this are inherently flawed by virtue of the fact that only the most diehard fans will bother to vote at all, and that proactive fan base is not necessarily representative of the buying public as a whole. A poll like this is at best a fun way for fans to show support for their favorite television shows. It gives the good folks at Shout! Factory some indication of diehard fan support, but they are looking even more closely at a more important number: the number of previously released season sets sold. If they believe they can make enough money on the release of a season set of any of the series they have rights to, they most likely will release it; if not, they won't. The best way to show support for your favorite series is to buy the seasons as they come out and talk them up with friends, family, whoever will listen.
My vote goes to The Paper Chase. Is it any more deserving then any of the other television series listed? Not necessarily. It's just my favorite on the list because of its quality. Sure, the clothing and production values are dated, but the stories are timeless. I would urge anyone who hasn't seen it to give it a try. You might just be glad you did.
No other show can top FATHER KNOWS BEST. And RHODA too.
No other show can top FATHER KNOWS BEST. And RHODA too.
While I voted for The Paper Chase, Ironside and Room 222 are right up there. We really appreciate your releasing these great old shows. I would also be in favor of you looking at a lot more of the shows from the 1950s and 1960s. Keep up the GREAT work!
Please wrestle away the rights of The Facts of Life from Sony and release the rest of that great 80's show.
scott were you the one voting a 100 times for it.
I voted for Blossom as I've worn my set out, but My 2 Dads and Rhoda are really high on my want list too.
Please get the rights to the 80's show.
Sorry to the people that I offended with the whining comment.
I voted for Adam 12, but only because HERMAN'S HEAD wasn't one of the other choices. That is the show I would most like to see on DVD.
Despite of what TVShowsonDVD.com reported yesterday concerning which shows are supposedly big sellers for Shout, it is a fact that there were voting "irregularities", to say the least. Some shows had huge jumps in just a few hours and it's clear this wasn't just random, different people voting. I just hope no show is negatively affected by this poll, because that would be unjust.
I'm with Elizabeth. I want more "Father Knows Best" and I'd really be upset if this poll was the determining factor in whether more sets are released, because it does look like it's been messed with.
In response to the post just four places above this one that apologized on my behalf for calling certain posters "whiners," I would like you to know that I do not apologize for what I wrote. And to "john," just three more places up: No, I did not vote a hundred times or more for "The Paper Chase." If you had bothered to actually read what I wrote, you'd see that I don't feel a need to cheat the system. Each of the series listed on the poll will live or die based on their sales numbers, not on the number of votes they get in this poll. Some of the people posting to this discussion are taking the results of this poll way too seriously. Please give the good folks at Shout! Factory some credit for their intelligence in interpreting the poll's results, and stop whining if your favorite show is not getting as many votes as you would like.
Peyton Place gets my vote. Please, please keep the episodes coming. The current prints used for PP look pretty bad, but I realize Shout has little control over that. But thanks for providing me with the ability to revisit this compelling tv series. Keep up the great work. Thanks again.
Spin city needs to be released in full! You have already released season 1 and 2, you can't ditch it now you must have 3 and 4 as well!!!! The Michael J Fox seasons are classic TV, and also would sell a lot as there are huge MJF fans out there still. I'm in the UK and have been buying these as region 1 imports just becausei love the show and MJF so much. And many people i know who were not big MJF fans were won over and LOVE Spin City. You have to finish releasing it, season3 and 4 (and possibly Charlie Sheens Season 5 and 6 too) please!
Please release more Room 222. This hasn't been on TV for years and I would love to see all of the seasons released.
How about releasing "The New People?"
How about securing the rights from Sony to release the remaining sets of "One Day at a Time" and "Maude?" I would love to see more Bea Arthur out there. How about the lost Bea Arthur sitcom "Amanda's?"
How about the original "In Search of..." series from the 1970s with Leonard Nimoy. Please release the originals with all of the strange opening credits and music and not the butchered History Channel reruns.
more of mr b
Please get the rights to that 80's show.
enjoy shoutfactory dvd's.
Please do mr belvedere season 4
I WOULD LOVE TO SEE ROOM 222 ALL THE SEASONS RELEASED. IT IS WITHOUT DOUBT MY FAVORITE SHOW OF ALL TIME. PLEASE PUT ROOM 222
THE REMAINING SEASONS ON DVD. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
i HAVE TO GIVE A HEADS UP TO SHOUT FACTORY FOR DOING SUCH A
GREAT JOB ON "FATHER KNOWS BEST.' LIKE A FOOL T BOUGHT SOME
BOOTLEG VERSIONS FROM A CANADIAN OUTFIT THAT LOOKED LIKE
CRAP. SHOUT FACTORY PUT A LOT OF CARE IN THESE DVD SETS
AND FOR THAT I WILL BE FOREVER GRATEFUL. MY FAVORITE SEASONS
ARE THE NEXT THREE SEASONS, SO PLEASE DONT STOP NOW.
I guarantee that I would buy all seasons of The Paper Chase TV Series.
I am pleading with you to release all these great shows, but mostly Room 222. This is one of the finest 1/2 of the late 60's/early 70's made and is a great window into the culture of it's time.
Also think The Paper Chase is fantastic and deserving of a further release.
Please release all the Spin City seasons, it's the best series ever! I'll buy it immediately. :)
Please continue with Peyton Place, I did not watch it as a kid, too young to stay up that late, but have become addicted and am almost done with the second half of the first season. Savoring them slowly so I won't finish too fast. Pleaaase Hurry.
More Paper Chase, please!
Please release more seasons of Room 222 and Rhoda! I will buy several for myself and as gifts!
would be great to see c.p.o. sharkey from dec76-may78 only 50+episodes but its classic Don Rickels.
