Home Video Releases
By July 2009, the series had not been released on home video, except for one episode that was released on a limited edition bonus DVD. Episode one, "The Joy Riders", was released as Warner Bros. Television Commemorative DVD Volume 8: Shazam, as part of a DVD series designed to promote 50 years of Warner Bros. Television, and to promote other TV shows that were not yet released on DVD. It was included with the release of the third season of Wonder Woman in 2005 in North America (the episodes of Secrets of Isis in which Captain Marvel appeared were released to DVD in North America in 2007).
On July 11, 2012, it was announced that Warner Bros will release Shazam! - The Complete Live Action Series on DVD on September 18, 2012 via their Warner Archive Collection. The DVD release date was later pushed back to October 23, 2012. This is a Manufacture-on-Demand (MOD) release, available exclusively in the US and only through Warner's online store, as well as Amazon.com through their CreateSpace service. Although billed as "manufacture-on-demand", initial quantities of this title are to be available on pressed media (instead of DVD-R) while quantities last, according to inside sources at Warner Brothers.

Famous quotes containing the words home, video and/or releases:
“The other side of the globe is but the home of our correspondent. Our voyaging is only great-circle sailing.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“It is among the ranks of school-age children, those six- to twelve-year-olds who once avidly filled their free moments with childhood play, that the greatest change is evident. In the place of traditional, sometimes ancient childhood games that were still popular a generation ago, in the place of fantasy and make- believe play . . . today’s children have substituted television viewing and, most recently, video games.”
—Marie Winn (20th century)
“We need a type of theatre which not only releases the feelings, insights and impulses possible within the particular historical field of human relations in which the action takes place, but employs and encourages those thoughts and feelings which help transform the field itself.”
—Bertolt Brecht (1898–1956)
