(More customer reviews)In August 2005, Universal will finally release some long-overdue programs of that '70s mainstay, the NBC Mystery Movie. Tell me you can't hear that whistling theme song in your mind as you read those words!
In March 2005, season one of the most famous Mystery Movie, Columbo, was released. Clearly, Columbo is still popular, as this release was quickly followed with season two. In August, season three of Columbo makes it to DVD, along with (finally!) season one of both McCloud and McMillan and Wife. For the first time in DECADES, we can see these detective shows UNCUT and COMMERCIAL-FREE. This is great news for fans of terrific '70s TV!
Season one of McMillan and Wife consists of one two-hour pilot, ONCE UPON A DEAD MAN, and seven episodes, each 90 minutes long (73 minutes sans commercials). The episodes originally aired from Sep. '71 - Mar. '72, and their titles are:
MURDER BY THE BARREL (directed by John "Gomez Addams" Astin!)
A barrel contains dishes, then a body, then the body disappears.
THE EASY SUNDAY MURDER CASE
A woman's husband and dog are both kidnapped.
HUSBANDS, WIVES, AND KILLERS
Mac and Sally go to a masquerade, where a necklace is stolen.
DEATH IS A SEVEN POINT FAVORITE

TIL DEATH DO US PART

Support '70s detective shows on DVD by picking up all of these babies that you can. Maybe Streets of San Francisco will be next!
