What sitcoms from the 70's with 2 or less seasons are out on DVD? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I know one is "That's my Mama" which lasted from 74 to 76. And I know Fish is on DVD but it wasn't a single released and instead was issued as a bonus with Barney Miller

So what other sitcom from 1970 to 79 with two seasons or less have been released on DVD?

Lotsa Luck (1973) with Dom Deluise is a very good 1 year show on DVD

Now why did that show get a release on dvd? is there someone famous who starred on it like betty white? lol

Try Suzanne Somers, Ruth Buzzi and a bunch of otherfamiliar faces but not well known names. Pauley Shore's dad is in 1 episode.
It is a terrific show and I hope you give it a try

Bridget Loves Bernie has Meredith Baxter from Family Ties (Audra Lindley and David Doyle, too). Tabitha was a Bewitched spin-off over 5 years later.

Please tell me you're kidding, David Birney, Meredith Baxter, Robert Urich, Lisa Hartman and Audra Lindley. How big of a sitcom star does one have to be in order to be famous?

I thought someone had to be FAMOUS Now in the show for it to be released on DVD.

The Western comedy "Dusty's Trail" (1973-1974) starring Bob Denver and created by Sherwood Schwartz.

The sci-fi sitcom "Quark" (1977-1978) starring Richard Benjamin.

Ok, sorry for the misunderstanding, I was actually somewhat surprised that Tabitha was released but I found it at Big Lots for $3 and got it.
