ClassicFlix has been around for well over a decade, and describe themselves to customers as "
THE Classic Movie Site on the Web; renting and selling ONLY the classics (pre-1970)"...but lately they're not just renting or selling DVDs and Blu-ray Discs: they are making them, too! It's been all about the films for the most part, so far. But yesterday ClassicFlix
announced that they are venturing out into the TV-DVD market, too! Here's a quote:
Two rarely-seen television shows will also be making their DVD debut having never been available on any home video format:
- It's About Time (The Complete Series) – starring Frank Aletter, Jack Mullaney, Imogene Coca and Joe E. Ross
- Lock-Up (Season 1) – starring Macdonald Carey and John Doucette
Releases are expected to start in late spring.
Nice! It's great to see that the 1959 syndicated show (which lasted 2 seasons and 78 episodes) is getting a solid DVD release with
Lock-Up - Season 1, coming to DVD later this year! And naturally we all remember show star Macdonald Carey in his long-running central role as "Dr. Tom Horton" on
Days of Our Lifes; it will be terrific to see him play Herbert L. Maris (the name of a real-life Philadelphia-area lawyer!) in
Lock-Up. A specific release date, cover art, pricing and other details haven't been finalized yet, but stay tuned! Our thanks to reader Jackson Burnett for being the first to tip us off about this item.
