I was going to say MST3K will probably never be officially released in its entirety because of the difficulty of negotiating with 100s of different copyright holders, some of whom object to having their films mocked (i.e. Toho).  I've only heard of one case where music rights specifically may have caused a holdup, though, and that's with the music in the Gumby short that accompanies the SCREAMING SKULL episode. 

And sometimes the problem is not that the copyright holder refuses to license the music, but that they can't actually locate the holder.  In that case a company would prefer not to produce a DVD set at all, only to be sued later.

Interesting site: http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/articles/holdup.cfm.  This explains the reasons why dozens of popular shows haven't been released.

Thanks for the link.

Monstervision - Probably will never happen, but I wish TNT would make it available someway, possibly something like Itunes. I could always go with a bootleg but I'd hate to go that route.

Very surprising how Empty Nest seems to be all but forgotten these days.

Some popular Canadian shows back in the day I doubt we'll see quickly on DVD:

E.N.G.
Street Legal
Night Heat

And how about:

Forever Knight

Speaking of Canada, what about "Catwalk?" Remember that show, it starred a young Neve Campbell, me like.

You know what is really sad? Only seasons 1-8 and 14 of Law and Order were released on DVD. So what about the other seasons? What's the point of releasing season 14 on DVD if there isn't season 9-13?

Do you mean this V.I.P? If so, it has been released.

I started re-watching some of the shows. Thank you Netflix!

Darkroom, a very obscure ABC anthology series that took the supernatural road more than once. One episode I recall is where a group of toy soldiers and vehicles came to life and attacked someone for some odd reason.



Darkroom was just released but on region 4:  http://www.diabolikdvd.com/category/Cult-Favorites/Darkroom-~-The-Complete-Series-DVD-(PAL-Region-4).html
