I'm surprised that no one has mentioned Firefly. Probably the biggest seller of failed TV shows. I don't own it because I don't like incomplete stories. If a TV show can't muster at least a complete season, then I don't want it. This is one of the reasons why I passed on the Farscape DVDs originally because Season 4 was left with a cliff-hanger that wasn't resolved. Plus the lack of special features. ;)

I'd love to see the short-lived The Adventures of Brisco County Jr., Nowhere Man, Strange Luck and Now and Again.

Both of those channels have picked up quite a bit of short-lived/failed programming. Universal HD has the feature-length pilot for Thoughtcrimes in rotation, for instance, as well as short-lived shows like Century City, Mister Sterling, and Welcome to New York, debuting unaired episodes of each.
HDNet's selection of short-lived shows (these go in and out of rotation) includes Odyssey 5, Jake 2.0, Haunted, Square Pegs, The Handler, Love & Money, Robbery Homicide Division, First Monday, A Minute with Stan Hooper, Big Apple, Wolf Lake, Some of My Best Friends, Bette, What About Joan, Thieves, Presidio Med, The In-Laws, and Queens Supreme.
So, this has nothing to do with DVDs, but I figured I might as well mention it anyway.

Those are good ones and I would love to have them all. Especially The Adventures of Brisco County Jr. For Brisco and Jack of All Trades there is just no end to what I would do.

I'm hoping that Ned & Stacy makes in to DVD sometime... I keep hoping that with Debra Messing being seen regularly on Will & Grace and Thomas Haden Church's recent popularity/visibility surge will help push it out.
