gee whiz, no posts for over 24 hours.I just ordered 3 DVDs of "Secret Agent Man" from Amazon and awaiting delivery.
Was going to get "Peter Gunn" but all comments were extremely negative on quality.
Lastly, planning to watch "Red Violin" this weekend.
Follow Ups:
... let me clue you into one of the most unusal DVD offerings: "1950's TV's Greatest Detectives"This reasonably priced 3 DVD set is a real gem, especially if like RARE early television. Highlights include an episode from the first season Dragnet ('52, complete with Jack Webb touting the health benefits of Chesterfield cigarettes -- Note: He died in the early 70's of lung cancer, if I'm not mistaken), the first episode of Sherlock Holmes (1954 version), a kinescope of Martin Kane, Private Eye with William Gargahn the first actor to essay the role (1951, with tobacco commercials woven into the storyline!), Dick Tracy with Ralph Byrd, I Am the Law (a short lived syndicated crime drama with great atmosphere from 1953, featuring George Raft as a police detective), and Mark Sabre of the Homicide Squad (a 1952 crime drama starring Tom Conway).
I could go on because there are many fine shows and a few curiosities in this 5 1/2 hour compilation of rare detective shows, and all are digitally remastered and in much better shape than you'ld expect (i.e., if only the black level had been a bit darker, thes would've been flawless!).
Highly recommended!

Because I loved it. I was laughing so much my jaw hurt the morning after. Confirms everything I suspected about Michael Jackson and Martha Stewart.
