    Animation on Physcial Media have always been treated badly with throwaway versions.
    .They just give up half way though series due to poor sales instead of doing just full season boxsets in first place.
    .They sell them on VHS and DVD with volumes with only up to 3 episodes each like they used to do with Anime shows but with Anime they usally tried to make the series complete. Look I had a G1 My little Pony VHS that had part 1 of a 2 Parter the Publisher never put part 2 on the other VHS they made.
    . If your not in US they all have to be Age Rated to be sold which costs money and main reason for the above points. Its the reason why alot on VHS just got 3 Episodes and only showed the Intro and Credits one because Age rating a Movie costs more money.

    Disney only wants to release the most popular TV content, but even then some of the choices are baffling. They will release *Buddies,* a *Home Improvement* spin-off that was a short-lived flop over *Empty Nest,* a *Golden Girls* spinoff that ran seven years, won another Emmy for Richard Mulligan, and was almost as funny, well-written and well-acted. They also have barely even scratched the surface of *The Wonderful World of Disney* despite Leonard Maltin trying to get the ball rolling on it with the Walt Disney Treasures sets after a 90s laserdisc box set and some 80s VHS tapes.
    Maybe Sony will finally be able to pry the vaults open and give longtime fans the stuff we actually want. I am not guaranteeing anything or putting any expectations on them, but if anybody can do it, Sony can.

      It's funny you brought up the Sony partnership, given that Disney used to despise licensing the home video rights of certain shows and movies; there have been _very few times_ in recent memory that Disney has licensed animated releases to other home video labels (Disney Channel's Gravity Falls was given a "complete series" by Shout Factory after Disney themselves only released random episode compilations; Pixar's Wall-E was given a 4K/Blu-ray combo pack through the Criterion Collection).

      I partially disagree but only because it was a holdover of the pre-home video era. It was created because they needed the money during World War II. Even if it was profitable at a time when they needed the money, extrapolating a business model intended for movie theaters onto home video was their Achilles' Heel because they failed to take into account that these videotapes would be available for rent in video stores long after they were no longer available for sale. And those who had the tapes would have them as long as they wanted them. The re-releases were for the parents of children who were not yet born for the last release or the premiere. But either way, their ability to control access to their movies would be broken and would never be gotten back again.

    This not only applies to the Disney Afternoon, this applies to the entirety of Disney TVA's lineage of shows released in their entire 40 years of existence. I know streaming has been the defacto to corporations when it comes to releasing shows in their entirety but in recent years, a lot of those streaming services are going down the drain because of terrible decisions like removing shows in exchange for tax dollars. Many shows after the Disney Afternoon era never got a home video release and very few did. And it's only given to the popular shows like Kim Possible, The Proud Family, Phineas and Ferb, and Gravity Falls. Outside of the four shows mentioned, almost 98% of Disney TVA shows released from 1998 to now never got a home video release.

    Two issues compound the release of any Disney (or Disney-owned) TV animation:
    1) Most of these shows from the ‘80s and ‘90s were mastered and edited on videotape, which means rebuilding the shows entirely if they do a HD release, or just putting out the original master tapes (which led to a bunch of ignorant “this looks like an old VHS” reviews on Amazon and the like). Further complicating a HD remaster is that it seems like every studio that had the animation done overseas and edited it on video just up and threw out the film for re-takes, meaning that it’s literally impossible to get a fully HD version of many shows of the time.
    2) Disney has always considered their TV work to be less important than, say, the animated movies, which weren’t even released on home video until a decade after Beta and VHS were introduced (and even then was subject to much infighting because it was seen as ruining their true value as something they could re-issue to theatres every so many years). This impacts any remastering efforts because they won’t bother to ensure that they have the correct footage and will just release episodes with errors that were never supposed to be seen on television.

    I think I actually have an answer as to why Disney hasn't done a proper release of the Disney Afternoon Shows or many of their TV shows in general.
    A while ago Leonard Maltin was on this livestream (ua-cam.com/users/liveemd3rIz7mPg?si=Q1f6HLMGnA9rNy5h&t=2183) where he discussed his time on the curating the excellent Walt Disney Treasures DVD sets which collected the majority of the classic Disney animated shorts (Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy etc.) as well as several episodes from the old Disneyland anthology series and The Mickey Mouse Club. One time he pitched doing the complete first and second season of Zorro but the head of Disney's Home Entertainment division told him "We don't like to do season by season sets of our shows. We tried to do that with our biggest hit show of all time The Golden Girls - and they didn't sell as well as the Seinfeld or Friends sets at Sony and WB. So clearly people just don't want season-by-season sets of our shows." No Really.

      Then it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. You can't make money on a product that doesn't exist. You never know what is going to sell until you actually put it out there. *Punky Brewster* was not considered a successful show when it was new, but it has sold better on DVD than some of its contemporaries that were. In that case, an independent company was willing to go to bat for it where a studio would have farted out a season 1 set with no effort or promotion and let it die on the vine. Maybe things will be different now with the Sony deal.

Sunwoo did filming of these and they were bad even on 90s TVs as it looked blurry.

      When Disney started getting into TV animation, TV was changing the way it edited TV shows and distributed them to TV stations.

That analog tape did not look so great with MPEG-2 compression.

      Once they moved it to syndication after moving to another network from its debut network, that was probably a sign that the show would not be long for this world. Sending it to a less expensive animation studio is a way of saying start sending your portfolio to other studios. Remastering this show and doing it right is going to be expensive. Disney will only expend this kind of effort if they can tie it into a reboot or remake, which is despicable when you think about it. Nobody hates Disney more than Disney hates itself.

      Disney's mistreatment of *Gummi Bears* is a tragedy. That show did for their TV cartoons what *Snow White* did for animated features. I re-watched an episode recently and it is easy to see why it was a success back then. But after NBC canceled it for that terrible live-action show Hayley Mills got out of while the getting was good, I quit watching it because it kept bouncing here and there and everywhere, first from ABC, and then to syndication before they ended it altogether and moved the reruns to the Disney Channel, where they aired them out of order and changed the pairing of the double episodes. I didn't even see the last two seasons until TDC reruns! And I had to get the Australian DVDs to get episodes that were not available in America. And I've heard rumors that bumping this show up to HD is easier said than done because they didn't think that far ahead when they were making the show. It's sad really because the voice casting was excellent. Until Bill Scott died, it was a Rocky and Bullwinkle reunion with the voices of Garfield and Tigger. David Faustino was also the voice of Cavin on one episode before starting *Married with Children.* Christian Jacobs, the actor he replaced, played Archie Bunker's grandson Joey in the spinoff *Gloria.*

What I wouldn't give for some eccentric mad scientist type with enough money and time on his hands to invent a combination laserdisc/DVD/Blu-ray/UHD/CD/SACD/DVD-Audio player that would combine all the plastic video and audio disc formats. They could put laserdisc and DVD in the same player in the 1990s, and they can put DVD capability with Blu-ray and UHD players, so it is theoretically possible. The practicality of actually making such a player a reality and being able to make it worth the while to manufacture it is another matter. If they can bring vinyl back from the dead, laserdisc deserves one more chance.

    It probably comes down to the idea that Disney doesn’t consider releasing these shows a priority. They were shows created for kids 20-30 years ago who have since grown up. They’d probably rather emphasize new stuff or just put out small sets for a little cash from nostalgic adults. But confidence that a second or third set would net enough returns is probably low.

If Cartoon Network are FINALLY giving Dexter’s Lab a complete series DVD, and Disney gave Rescue Rangers a Blu Ray release in recent years, I feel more should be done to get our favorite shows on DVD and Blu Ray in full!
