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.

“I argued that the chastity of women was of much more consequence than that of men, as the property and rights of families depend upon it.”
—James Boswell (1740–1795)
“To make life more bearable and pleasant for everybody, choose the issues that are significant enough to fight over, and ignore or use distraction for those you can let slide that day. Picking your battles will eliminate a number of conflicts, and yet will still leave you feeling in control.”
—Lawrence Balter (20th century)
