Fonz, L&S, mork hour
Monster in my pocket
ABC weekend special hanna-barbera, ruby spears episodes.
Did i miss any?
Warner Bros
had announced a 3-year distribution deal for over 600 Paramount titles on home video (including 'MOD' DVDs), a couple of years ago .. but it's still possible those particular cartoons might've been excluded.

Jeannie, I think, is ultimately a Sony property .. and Warner Archive fully handles their 'MOD' titles (branded as 'Sony Pictures Choice Collection').

Heads up: Warner Archive has a sale going on during the San Diego Comic Con weekend .. with many titles at '
38% off' their regular prices.
I finally pulled the trigger on
Space Stars and
Captain Caveman, myself.
Though -- of course -- this comes
after my button-pushing finger had gotten itchy, and bought the entire 1980s
Jetsons TV series (
aka seasons 2 & 3) at full price, just a month ago.

4:3 video? That's kinda disappointing, suggesting they're just using open matte TV prints. As the TV-era HB's only theatrical series I was hoping they'd look a little more "cinematic". Still, from a historical standpoint this is an easy pickup.

I have actually never seen this show. Nice for fans, but nothing I'm in a hurry to check out. Still more 60s and 70s H-B to get to.

It's more of less the prototype for disneys chip and dale rescue rangers. Cute animals beat up bad guys and rescue kids and animals. The bad guys are right out of dyno-mutt. Super powered bad guys and aliens getting beat up by cute little animals!
It's an ok show. Not going to win awards but fun in an 80s h-b show way.

To clarify, new season sets for Snorks will not be offered through Warner Archive, but from a new distributor that has licensed the show.

Wow, that was a quick turnaround. Looks like the company didn't read its contract.

And I'm sure I wasn't the only one who first thought, "Wow, two disks?...Oh, wait,
that one.
