*I Love Lucy only had six seasons. Although the following year would see the release of “The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour” released under the title “I Love Lucy: Seasons 7, 8 and 9”, I’m counting it as a separate series. So as of 2006, “I Love Lucy” is complete.

**The Comeback and Arrested Development completed their DVD runs for the time. Both shows were cancelled and for years these were considered complete series. Both shows, however, would return with new episodes years later. But in 2006, this was it. So I’m counting them here.

29 Shows were completed in 2006: Good Morning World, Titus, All-American Girl, Hearts Afire, Significant Others, Action, The Brady Bunch, Gidget, Doogie Howser, M.D., I Love Lucy, The Bugaloos, The Ellen Show, Jack Of All Trades, The Comeback, Good Times, The Weird Al Show, Arrested Development, ALF, The Flintstones, Stella, The Abbott and Costello Show, Three’s Company, M*A*S*H, Police Squad!, 3rd Rock from the Sun, Get Smart, Ellen, The Andy Griffith Show, and Stacked

I notice (to an extent) companies ten years ago were more in a rush to complete series on DVD. Now, yes, we are seeing complete series of shows but a lot of shows are sadly incomplete.
