Strike some sort of deal, shake hands -- split the pie --- whatever it takes to get this highly anticipated and in-demand television classic on home video. It's big money in the bank -- for old-timers who grew up on it, and for new kiddies to whom it will undoubtedly thrill. "Guy named Squeamy got thrown from the fifth floor. He's deader'n a mackerel."

They were spoiled for choice, and the 1960s version arguably had the least commercial appeal of the lot. The Scooby-Doo team-ups are part of a still popular series; the 1970s series had the attraction of Adam West and Burt Ward; the 1990s version is the most highly regarded of the lot; "The Batman" was brand new at the time it was released on DVD; the same now applies to "The Brave and the Bold." While it had all those to release, Warner had no reason to bother with the 1960s series--and now that that is all that is left, Warner quite possibly may think that the market is glutted. I think a Warner Archive release is most likely at this point.

Nostalgia, my dear fellow, is a powerful temptress! As is completism!

But then when I actually WATCH some of these things from my kidhood, the completism often dries up right quick! (Waitaminit - the first one I just viewed was now a bore & the second a chore; do I need to buy the whole batch of 35...?) -Craig
