Some more interesting titles are: It's about time, No time for Sargent (only one season), Dusty's Trail (only one season), Dennis the Menace, Car 54 where are you and probably THE BEST SITCOM EVER: The Phil Silvers Show (aka Sgt Bilko) |

Sadly it's owned by CBS Paramount which make it difficult to license their material. They have so much amazing stuff (all of the Desilu shows plus Paramount Television and the Spelling shows). |

Though there is not a season by season release there was a 50th anniversary DVD release that you can get on amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/Sgt-Bilko-50th-Anniversary-Silvers/dp/B000EBGE9G/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1246317011&sr=8-1
It is an official release by CBS.
A season by season release would be great but since CBS owns the rights it won't happen through Shout! since CBS Paramount does not license their material. |
