I really love the work Shout! Factory does. Keep it up, please! Just curious if there's any chance we might ever get a release of the one and only season of "Window on Main Street"?
I've enjoyed the bonus episodes you included on the "Father Knows Best" season sets, and the Xmas episode you included on "Merry Sitcom!" From what I've seen so far, it looks like one of those great little shows that just never found its audience, for whatever reason. It would be nice to see the rest of the episodes...
I know this is obviously never gonna be a big seller for Shout, but is putting it out as DVD On Demand a viable option? If not, maybe you guys could license it to Hulu, like some of the "Father Knows Best" episodes that are on Hulu.
Thanks and Happy Holidays!
Scott |

In fact, I specifically, bought the Merry Sitcom! dvd for the Christmas episode and I'm glad I did. Not only was the quality great, it was also a very nice episode. Please release the complete series. I would buy it in a heartbeat. Great, great show! |

It should be noted that I don't read Home Theater Forum. The only person I know here that does is Cliff Macmillan, who didn't work at Shout! Factory when we began Father Knows Best. The idea for releasing Window On Main Street as bonus features, despite the suggestion you apparently made elsewhere, came from Young's grandson. I give credit where it's due.
As for a release on its own, I just don't think it's a widely loved-enough series to warrant its own release.

Member since: 9/21/2007 | | RE: 1961-62 Robert Young Show, "Window on Main Street" | I figure that wouldn't happen. Brian, do you think a bonus disc for the final season is plausible?. That way you could add a few episodes of "Window" plus both reunion movies.

Member since: 9/2/2010 | | RE: 1961-62 Robert Young Show, "Window on Main Street" | | Would it be possible to have an address where we could contact Mr. Young's grandson (Bill Profitt?) to encourage him to release the whole series of "Window on Main Street"? I had never heard of the series before seeing the bonus episodes on the "Father Knows Best" DVDs but I have fallen in love with it and would love to buy the whole series. |

Member since: 4/23/2008 | | RE: 1961-62 Robert Young Show, "Window on Main Street" | That's interesting, a big reason I've bought Father Knows Best on DVD is for those bonus episodes of Window On Main Street. Include me among those who would buy Window On Main Street complete on DVD if it were made available.
