He just has season 1 listed, not season 2.

CTV Throwback definitely has all the classics I wish I could see. I hope at some point they make the streaming available nationally. So many of those shows haven't been seen in years.

Oh ok i thought the show only had 1 season77-78

Seller just posted My Two Dads and Fish. I recently got ahold of season 3 of My Two Dads from original airings as well. I'm excited.

I also got ahold of You Again, which was the 1980s series with John Stamos and Jack Klugman. It wasn't a major hit but I liked the two main stars. It's only missing 3 episodes so the set's still a winner for me.

I want to find some ABC airings of Three's Company

Just looked at the cover of the DVD for All's Fair and noticed right away that was the girl Mike Stivic was tutoring at her house

Bernadette Peters was a huge star back then. To get her on the show, they had to have some big pockets. Norman Lear also created All's Fair so you can say both these shows were All in the Lear Family.

I just ordered the Fish set. I watched the entire first season on YouTube a few years back, but I haven't seen any of season two since it was in syndication back in the 90s.

I've been watching My Two Dads on Crackle lately.

I ordered the All's Fair set a while back. So far I've only watched the first disc and I've had some minor playback issues on my DVD player, but it works fine on my desktop.

I'm just happy to see all these shows get DVD releases even if they are unofficial. Studios passed up on some great sitcoms because the demand is very strong for several shows not already on DVD.

Im curious to know if Gloria is the highest rated sitcom to ever be cancelled

I'll have to look into that. If the show had high ratings but was cancelled there could have been several reasons why. First reason could have been the cost of producing the show. The second reason could be that Sally Struthers got tired of playing the character or wanted more money before she signed on to do a new season. I know Carroll O'Connor was pretty much left out of all creative decisions regarding the show. He wanted more input and they said no. For that reason he only appeared in the original pilot and never returned. He was mentioned a few times but never made any additional appearances.

He pretty much washed his hands of the series and focused only on Archie Bunker's Place until it ended.

Found out some bad news about Archie Bunkers Place set last night. Its 1 episode from season 2 missing from the set. So I wont be buying it. If it was edited then I would still get it but not to have it on there at all is something that I cant buy

AngieTribeca · 08-27-2020, 03:09 PM

I'm still purchasing the set. I'm going to see if the seller will let me send my version recorded off TV to him. Mine was recorded off FamilyNet and is in perfect quality and is also unedited to my knowledge. FamilyNet only aired a few edited episodes but this wasn't one of them.

Well in your case you have that episode in your possession which makes the set complete. I would have a incomplete set
