Batman:44 Years Ago (And Still no DVD)

[The Toyroom]

Everyone should do themselves a favor and trade up their TV Land sets for one of the master sets....complete with "Place Commercial Here" bumpers and "Coming Next Week Villains".

Shawn recorded the TVLand bootlegs for me a couple of years ago. The guy he bought them from said they were complete, but I'm missing about 8 eps. Sometimes I can find them on YouTube though.

IMO, there's a few shows that will NEVER get released on DVD - or at least in the United States ...

The Beatles Let it Be
Batman 1966 TV series
Doctor Who 1996 TV movie
Six Million Dollar Man
Bionic Woman

to name a few.

i was just thinking about this the other day, i hope that most of the cast doesn't die before it get released. the local detroit channel (same one that carried ecw in the 90's) is now airing batman tho.

44 yrs ago..... Man do I feel old.

My daughter loves the show.

[thunderbolt]

I got a really good set from here on the Museum.

[Meule]

I bought a 20 disc set years ago, couldn't wait any longer.
IF it ever gets released tho, I will buy the official set

[TrueDave]

I have the 10 disc set. Horror Hound show $50 bucks. Only disc set I have. I dont own many discs. But I was sick of waiting. I share them with my nephews.

My turn to answer teh question " Why do they have thier underwear on outside of thier pants? Wheres Robins pants?"

I LOVE camp ! But don't do anymarthons. Its like trying to live off ramen noodles your insides will turn to mush.

I have a 10 disc set of bootlegs from TVLand. They are pretty bad. The premiere show features a scene where the "Friendship Cake" blows up and the screen just becomes a chaotic mass of pixelated colour. Pretty bad.

I read in another thread that the 30 disc set is the best. Who has that set, and where did they get it?

[The Toyroom]

^Yeah that's what I did last year too...got tired of waiting for something that may never happen in my lifetime.....

I couldn't wait any longer so I scored the Bootleg

It's already too late for the owners to make the best money they could have by it's release and as the years go by it will get worse and worse for them.

I agree.... ,
In another 6 yrs on the 50th ..., it will only get Worse .

[thunderbolt]

Its really lame, good thing I have a nice bootleg set.

[Wee67]

This really is just plain befuddling that the parties involved couldn't get past their differences about how much money they should get to see their way to make ANY money.

The real market for this show is just getting older and older and, hence, bogged with other expenses. The fans of this show are now having kids, buying homes, etc. The release would still sell well, but I believe its maximum potential would have been released with the past 5-10 years.

BTW, I have 3 different sets of this show.
