Thanks for clarifying this.<br /><br />Considering <i>The Defenders</i> won a LOT of Emmy Awards, one would assume it would've gotten to DVD by now; too bad....<br /><br />I have both sets of <i>Arrest and Trial</i>. It's a pretty good show, especially the episode with Roddy McDowall, which was nominated for an Emmy. However, as much as I like Chuck Connors and Ben Gazzara, it can be argued they could've swapped roles without adverse effect to the series!R.A.M.'67https://www.blogger.com/profile/12817535165296807817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8707040.post-13582882895124932542011-09-05T18:40:05.699-05:002011-09-05T18:40:05.699-05:00The recent DEFENDERS was not a remake, even though...The recent DEFENDERS was not a remake, even though it was about a young guy/old guy lawyer team. However, clips from THE DEFENDERS have shown up on MAD MEN and BOSTON LEGAL in recent years. I understand that there isn't a large audience for dramas of this vintage, but considering other series like ARREST & TRIAL have gotten DVD releases, one would think a true classic like this one would move a few units. It could be just a matter of the rights holders wanting too much to license it out for DVD.Marty McKeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02084642122976337263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8707040.post-39045521702588746212011-09-05T18:03:56.583-05:002011-09-05T18:03:56.583-05:00I've heard and read a lot of good things about...I've heard and read a lot of good things about <i>The Defenders</i>. It seems to be a notable holdout in classic TV courtroom dramas from the '60s available on DVD.<br /><br />What could be holding up its release?
