TO all Harry O fans out there. Start an internet campaign to release the series
on DVD. I would but I'm not sure where or how to start. Fans can make it happen
if they really care. I hope that they do. I ask network executives to do this
as soon as possible. Will someone who knows how PLEASE pick up the banner?
Thank You

i totally agree. this was the best detective series ever, bar none. please put all the episodes on dvd.
shareI just bought the entire series (both pilots and all episodes) on Ebay for $50. I am deliriously happy I found it. It's my all time favorite cop show.
shareWas it on DVD? or copies someone taped from TV?
sharesurreal plumber - was this a dvd purchase? My favorite cop show also- JohnP
shareI totally agree Harry O should be on DVD. His battles with Anthony Zerbe, drinking his coffee...classic. Best line in a cop show, voiceover: "I used to think a woman was like a bus. There'll be another one in 10 minutes."
shareAlways loved it. Did it inspire "The Rockford Files"? Lone P.I., living by the beach, etc. Definitely prefer it to the Garner show, much more believable and real life-like character (hampered by bullet stuck in body, likes to drink, takes the bus), perfectly portrayed by Janssen. We need an official DVD release of this gem pronto.
shareTruer words were never written. Great memories of this show. I will buy it immediately, and probably watch every episode ASAP.
shareRecently rewatched the pilots and the entire two seasons of episodes in a marathon weekend. A long time goal realized and I feel every moment was spent just as I should have. Confirmed my opinion that was one of the great television series of all time and that David was born to play the role of Harry Orwell.
This weekend I've been re-watching the episodes to appreciate the acting, writing, cinematography all over again.
It's just exciting to recall the way we were then.
Note. People have noted that Harry was a fairly morose character, but I'm discovering moments when there is some true joy/pleasure shining in the man's eyes. The series does remind me of some film noir (which I love by the way). Has anyone noted how the bright sunshiny California climate often comes across as sad?

I also loved the show and used to stay up late night in 1980 and watch reruns on CBS. Would love to have the series on dvd. If anybody can help me,I would be grateful
share Is this legit?

I'm not that proud of everything I've done, but I'm not that ashamed, either.
No, it's not.

Warner needs to do this classic justice and let new audiences discover it, because it really is that good. Not merely released quietly without much fanfare in their archive web line, but real DVD. Since it's already all over the place on bootlegs going with simple DVD-R quality makes little sense to me, whereas proper DVD would be the fine art.
shareHome Theater Forum is holding a new online chat with Warner on April 5th (2010). Fans should sign up and ask about "Harry O" on DVD!
shareGreat show.
shareWarner's releasing it next year as an archive title, the first pilot too, so they've said. Myself, I'd preferred a normal DVD release for the two series, but hey the dream's coming true and that's the important thing! Anyway, I do recall reading somewhere that popular enough titles (sales-wise) could also be considered for real DVD one day. But who knows, time now to brace ourselves with patience for the arrival of 2012.
shareI recently purchased the entire Harry O series on DVD. Includes all shows and two pilot movies on 10 discs. Quality good: copied from cable broadcast. Two shows had problems: "froze" during play. And 1 disc was blank.
Can't those holding the rights to this show make it available. I believe I've seen some sites where some TV series are sold individually upon order, thus avoiding a backlog of unsold copies for the supplier. If this true, can't rights holders look into this.
"And the Warner Archive Collection is bringing that second ("real") pilot telefilm home to the fans on May 3rd, with a manufacture-on-demand (MOD) release of Harry O - Smile Jenny, You're Dead. The 90-minute-long production comes on a single disc presented in the original full frame video and English mono audio. Cost is $19.95 SRP. Besides Janssen, there are other notable cast members in this story, but none moreso than future Oscar winner Jodie Foster...who at the time of the filming for this item had not yet done the TV series Paper Moon yet, much less Freaky Friday or Taxi Driver. Look for her as "Liberty Cole" in this show!"
*beep*
It's now available at WBShop.com. Season 1 just came out and the move "Smile Jenny You're Dead" is also available. enjoy!

Wow, no, I didn't know about Season Two! Thanks for the info, I just ordered it on Amazon!!
Next time you see me, it won't be me
Finally had a chance to watch some of season two. Not a bad transfer, and certainly superior to the bootlegs I've seen. If only there were some extras with this set, it would be perfect.
Next time you see me, it won't be me
Series 1 is now available on DVD!
