Member since: 8/22/2009 | | The Patty Duke Show | | The PILOT was supposed to be released on the The Patty Duke Show: Season One Box Set released today (9-29-09) but it is not anywhere on this disc but it is listed on the Shout Web site in product description. What happened ? Is this a hidden easter egg hidden in the menu? |

As explained in the other threads, the pilot was not cleared for use on the set. Sorry for the confusion. I'll have that removed from the description.

Member since: 8/22/2009 | | RE: The Patty Duke Show | | Thanks Brian! I just get my hopes up so much. To some of us these old shows are the only things we have to look forward to. Unlike some of the crap they air on TV now. Most are shows from the BBC that are re=made for the USA market which aren't as good as the originals.
The shows I really love these days have been cancelled like Pushing Daisies. But I know the market is geared to the 20 something market. Too bad..look at where this has taken the music business...American Idol singers. |

Just to let you know, the laser disc has 8 shows that were transferred complete from the network masters and everything was left in. Every commercial, sponsor tags, etc. And the main and title themes from all three seasons right off the magnetic 3 stripe tracks. Too bad they didn't do the whole series. The major studios won't release the shows like this. They do it there own way and tell you that's the way YOU want to see them. A bunch of crap of course. It's all about amount of time on the DVD which cost them more money to produce. But they don't realize people would pay more money to have the shows complete with everything left in. That makes the set much more desirable and collectible. And the damn commercials are public domain but they don't want to believe that. Companies like Shout only get what the studios decides to send them or im sure they would have the stuff left in. As Brian mentioned in response to my last post. Jack |

Member since: 1/12/2007 | | RE: The Patty Duke Show | Commercials are not public domain, especially if the advertised product still exists. Trust me. Those people want their money, because you forget, they spent money at one time to sponsor the shows. It's their way of getting it back, at an inflated rate.
Every commercial included on MGM's laser disc, which I have at my desk, was cleared by MGM's legal team. We were denied the initial use of those commercials by Fox, but are still trying to get them included on future sets.

Fox owns the commercials?
On future sets, even if you don't have any commercials is there anyway to retain the "The Patty Duke Show was brought to you by..." voiceover that was built into the tags for the first season and the second season.
On the first season set, they fade out before the voiceover (as you know) but could be included with some sort of explanation about how this was they way they repeated the main sponsor on the packaging.
I do not know how much flexibility you have with your supplied transfers (or whether they include the tag voiceovers or not) but I bring it up, in case it is possible. |

Member since: 3/21/2009 | | RE: The Patty Duke Show | All of MGM's properties that go onto DVD (or Blu-ray) right now comes from Fox. At TVShowsOnDVD I describe Fox as MGM's "distributor", but it's actually a much closer relationship than that. For home video purposes, you basically have to deal with both studios. It's not *quite* one entity...but it's so close that a lot of people do view it that way. Still, it's worth noting that Fox doesn't actually own MGM (actually, Sony owns a big chunk of the studio...but not a majority, so when Sony tried distributing MGM products on DVD and it didn't work out, MGM moved to Fox).

Member since: 10/12/2009 | | RE: The Patty Duke Show | Brian,
What if you guys set the DVD's up so they could be played with the commercials in the episodes or without. That way everybody is happy. This has been done before on other tv dvd sets and it works out great! Commercials in shows of the Fifties and Sixties are as enjoyable and creative as the show itself. Outstanding presentations and inventiveness. Not like the crap the last 30 years. That's why it's incrediable to see this stuff in the text instead of separate. It's fits like a glove. That goes for next week previews and scene to scene bumpers too.
Thanks,
Jack |

Are sales worthy enough to warrant a season 2?
Will MGMs recent financial struggles interfere with said release?
Any chance future sets will include the unaired pilot and/or the reunion movie?

Folks may enjoy the nostalgic commercials of yesteryear, but just as you won't find the most recent Lost DVDs including commercials that aired during the breaks, you won't find most nostalgic television DVD sets including their original commercials, either. It's both a content and clearance issue. These commercials, despite what many may think, are not in the public domain, so clearances would have to be made. It's just not a possibility.
As for sales, I can assure you that there will be a second season of The Patty Duke Show sometime early next year. I am working on that volume now, in fact. Everything's shaping up well and it looks like we'll have another really fun set.

That's great news! I've already "worn out" season one.
As for old commercials, the only one I would really hope for on the season 2 set is the Patty and Cathy commercial for Breck that was included on the laser disc set. Cast sponsor commercials have been included on other vintage TV sets and I hope Fox would permit it for this one (as an extra, not in the body of the show).

And yes, those Nick at Nite commercials and promos were hilarious, I remember watching Patty and the Donna Reed Show every night, and the promos only added to my enjoyment. I know they did ads for TPDS, but I can't remember what (I rememeber they used to have this Dr. who would analyze a show they were airing and use that as a commercial. The "How to Be Swell" and the Milkman bits were funny too). Ah memories. |

It was also fun seeing the show with cousin Betsy again. I was also glad to see that the odd alternate take of the opening theme was intact on "Patty, the Organizer". Again, I want to thank you all at Shout Factory for bringing back a show that I once thought that I'd never see again after it was canceled by Nick at Nite.

Occasionally, the episode will skip to the next episode after the opening title sequence. However, when you watch the episodes from the EPISODE MENU, everything works fine. This is not a universal issue. It only appears to be on certain players.

Occasionally, the episode will skip to the next episode after the opening title sequence. However, when you watch the episodes from the EPISODE MENU, everything works fine. This is not a universal issue. It only appears to be on certain players.

Member since: 10/3/2009 | | RE: The Patty Duke Show | I noticed that on discs 3 and 4 on our DVD player, too. Fortunately, I don't usually use the "Play All" feature. Other than that, I enjoyed this second season set very much. With all the new classic TV titles being announced lately from Shout! Factory, I hope that they don't forget the last season of The Patty Duke Show. It may not be the most famous or "important" show ever, but watching Patty and Cathy and the rest of the Lane family (and Richard, too!) brings a smile to my face when I need one after a long day.
Bye-e!

Love spotting those co-stars (or cameos) Marcia Strassman (very quickly) and Jean Stapleton in one episode, neat. |

And I know this has been covered already, and may be difficult because of rights issues, but any of the commercials that Patty did as Patty and Cathy. I know there was at least one she did for a shampoo.
Regardless, I'm just glad that all three seasons will be released on DVD. Thanks Shout!

Member since: 1/12/2007 | | RE: The Patty Duke Show | The reunion movie is probably negotiable, but the pilot, we're told, doesn't exist. And never really did. Before you jump on me, allow me to explain.
The episode never aired, because the network was unhappy with the pilot. They recast certain characters and started work on the series. Loving some of the footage they'd originally shot for the pilot, they used it in the first season's finale as "flashback" material. However, the "lost" pilot episode never really made beyond the editing phase, before it was decided to redo it. A master was never made.
Sadly, even if a tape did surface after all these years, we'd be unable to include it, due to talent releases for the actors that didn't make the series' final cast. The pilot for Mr. Ed had similar talent issues and we weren't allowed to include it as bonus material.
For those in doubt, this is straight from the horse's mouth (and filing cabinets) at Fox. The extent of what footage still exists on the pilot episode of The Patty Duke Show can be seen in the season one finale.
Sorry, gang.

Member since: 9/21/2007 | | RE: The Patty Duke Show | Yeah, that's not true. The unaired pilot does exist. I have seen it in full. It may not be a master but it definitely has more footage than what was included in the final first season episode. It appeared to be in pretty rough shape though.
Anyhow, I will be happy if they could just include the reunion movie as a bonus feature. Also really like the idea of Patty singing on Shindig as a bonus feature.

The colors and design they've gone with for this series have matched the show well. It totally has that 60s retro feel to it. Very excited for this set to be complete on dvd. August is going to be great! |

As I mentioned before, the masters don't have the commercials and, even if they did, they would require the approvals of Fox, who wouldn't. Brian
Brian, my friend, this is what's known as a half-truth. What you are calling "masters" are the videotape transfers that were made from the 35mm prints. That is no doubt what has been provided to you for your releases. The original 35mm fine grain negatives likely do contain the ABC network commercials as aired originally. Of course when the show was "remastered" to tape, they did not transfer them over with the commercials intact. |

The pilot doesn't exist as a videotape transfer. It most certainly exists on film, if not on 35mm then it most certainly exists on 16mm as I know a film collector who owns a print of it. Whether or not MGM still retains a copy in its vault is unknown but unless you have searched through their film vault you wouldn't know. They would have no reason to have mastered it to tape.

Member since: 10/3/2009 | | RE: The Patty Duke Show | | Honestly, regardless of whether we get extras like the unaired pilot or the reunion movie, I am glad that Shout Factory has released (or will release soon) the entire three seasons of a show that I thought that I'd never see again, much less have in my own personal DVD library. For that, I say "Thank you". (Aww, once the whole series is out, I'll have no more reason to post under Cathy's name...I had fun writing in character as Cathy.) |

This mini reunion is merely the topper, however, as we will also be including Still Rockin' In Brooklyn Heights, the Patty Duke Show cast reunion, presented in 16:9.
