We've been pushing the Time-Life videos of The Dick Van Dyke Show on this site. Five volumes are presently available on DVD or VHS, each containing four of the best episodes of the show, plus a number of special features. The DVDs have great picture quality and the shows are well-chosen, and the only negative, as I noted earlier, was that some of us would really like the complete run of the show in chronological order. That, alas, is not currently available. But it may be in the not-too-distant future, to those of us who have $800 to spend. The place to visit, if you're interested, is www.dickvandykeshow.com, an enterprise run by Doug Denoff, son of Sam Denoff.
Sam, of course, was one of the show's key writer-producers. As detailed over there, they are prepping but have been delayed in offering "The Ottoman Edition," which will be the complete run of The Dick Van Dyke Show, in sequence, and with some different special features included. There's no release date yet, and Denoff doesn't expect us to wait for it. So I bought (and will continue to purchase) the Time-Life releases until his comes along. This is one of the things on video I don't mind buying twice.
