does anyone know when seasons 4-6 will be released on DVD?

Kasey · 12-28-2010, 12:14 PM

There has been no word of this. Hopefully Shout! Factory will get the rights, because they finished MGM's Patty Duke Show and are almost finished Mr Ed. Green Acres is owned by the same company.

I know that this is bad, but I have honestly just given up waiting waiting for the release of the rest of the seasons. I have started just making my copies of the episodes.

I really hope it will happen but I doubt it. I'm going to just buy it all on itunes. Btw, anyone ever notice that the dvd's stopped coming out around the time Eddie Albert died? I wonder if that had anything to do with it.

I doubt it, I think it had to do more with MGM being bought out.

Yeah, I don't think it was coincidence that when Eddie Albert passed away we never saw another release. I gave up and bought a complete set from someone on ioffer. I've done this with about a dozen shows because I got sick of waiting for the studios to get off their a** and release my shows.

Oh how I wish we could see the remaining seasons on DVD instead of digital download. I email Shout Factory and Mill Creek all the time about picking up the rights to this show----they probably have my email address blocked by now, lol.

This is why DVD recorders were invented. I recorded this show amongst legions of others when TV Land showed it. Never understood the popularity of DVR recorders, they are only good for temporary recordings, will you have a DVR recording in 20 years? A DVD-R or for that matter a tape will always be available to you. DVR's are just too temporary to satisfy what I want.

McGillicuddy · 08-17-2012, 10:11 PM

Like Kasey says, I predict Shout! Factory will eventually get the rights, and put out a complete boxed set, like they did with Leave it To Beaver!

For the time being, all 6 seasons of "Green Acres" (that's a total of 170 episodes) are available free of charge (with commercials) on Hulu.com and they are full unedited episodes as originally aired (25-26 minutes in length).

I've waited and waited and finally given up on an official release so I went the bootleg route for the remaining seasons. I'm glad I did. If they ever decide to release seasons 4-6 I'll be happy to buy them and destroy my bootlegs but not until then.

I don't blame you. If FOX/MGM doesn't want people buying bootleg, then stop abandoning their dvd releases.

Announced today, FOX is re-releasing season 3. I don't really understand why, but I hope its this means seasons 4, 5 & 6 are coming next!!!!!!

I don't understand the reasoning behind this re-release either, unless someone was asleep at the switch and they meant to release Season 4, but come on! Season 3 was not plagued with edited episodes etc. so why not just resume at Season 4 which is what people are waiting on?

If this news means the remaining GA seasons are in the works then this could be the best year ever with the announcements of GA and Mama's Family!
