Rights Issues
The series was originally overseen and distributed by MCA/Universal. However, because of the other corporate production entities involved (particularly with Lynn Redgrave and James Michener, as well as the executive producers), most distribution and underlying rights went outside the parameters of MCA/Universal. Television syndication rights were licensed to Turner Program Services (now Warner Bros. Television, the successor-in-interest that continues to syndicate the series today). However, Universal Studios Home Entertainment did acquire the home video rights and in 2008 released the series on DVD. There are no current plans to release it on Blu-ray or reissue it to U.S. television.
