Well, they did release the first season on DVD a few years back.  Maybe it had poor sales that made release of the rest of the show unlikely.

You want Newhart on DVD? Brother, you must be dreamin'.


Funny little story, there is a remarkable lack of Parker Lewis Can't Lose on Netflix and Hulu.

Which Newhart show are we talking about?

If it's the Larry, Darrel and Darrel one, then county me in.
Still don't believe in Joe.

To be fair they aren't releasing Newhart anywhere let alone DVD. He just did Big Bang Theory and the actors were so giddy they walked by his dressing room 5 times before going in. They cried when they played music from his shows when he walked on stage. He's better than anything "funny" on TV today.

I want to feel like it's winter in VT so I'm eating a huge bowl of peppermint stick ice cream.  That'll help

Update:  Starting I think last year every season of Newhart is out on DVD.

Now we're working on Bob and George and Leo
