Here is my list. Sorry if there are repeats, but I haven't had a chance to read all the messages yet.
Quark (too bad, very funny and underrated show)
The Super (starred Richard Castellano as an apartment superintendent, in the mold of All In The Family
The Corner Bar (also very funny, starred former Dead End Kid Gabe Dell, guest stars included Alan King and fellow Dead End Kid Huntz Hall)
The Chicago Teddy Bears (starred Dean Jones, Art Metrano and Marvin Kaplan, charming show that took place during the Roaring 20's I believe, but probably too obscure to be released)
Last but not least, the remaining seasons of Barney Miller I read on IMDB that sales of Season One were so poor Sony decided not to release the rest of the series

and they can't just change the music because the music in integrated into the show.

Has anyone heard anything on Spin City or Cosby (the 1996-2000 show)?
I thought my favorite show of all time, Coach was never going to come to DVD but they finally released it last year (pretty awful release through) & when season 2 comes out on may 15 it sounds like they are going to give the second season a shit transfer as well.

I know season one is out, but I doubt we will never get to see the rest of malcom in the middle on dvd due to the music rights issues.

Didn't "Skin" air something like two episodes before getting canned? That show was a riot.
Personally, if I had to pick one show to finally be released, it would be War Of The Worlds: The Second Invasion. Not just because the first season of the show was released in a terrible transfer with no extras of any kind (well, a couple of trailers), but because the show was so mismanaged in it's second season, largely due to the severe shift in tone and killing of half the main heroes, as well as all of the previous villains. In an ideal world, I'd like to see this released with a documentary explaining what the hell went wrong on that show (fact: it's largely the fault of the second season's producer, who had apparently never watched any of the first season at all before going into the show!). Of course, that will never happen, but one can hope.

Cold Case will never see the light of day on DVD. The music alone would make the season sets unaffordable.
