A Classic TV Boutique

The goal of my shop is simple—to provide folks with comfort food in the form of classic television. The idea of this shop came out of my own personal experiences with buying many TV series on DVD, only to have the big companies stop releasing the remaining seasons because they wouldn’t make enough money doing so. That’s not fair to us, the public, who invested our cash only to end up owning partial TV series.

I’m changing that up by providing

  • out-of-print

  • hard-to-find

  • never (fully) released TV series.

However, instead of using DVDs, which are impractical and obsolete, I use a more future-proof, flexible medium—USB flash drives.

These USB drives plug directly into your TV’s USB input slot, or the USB input slot of any DVD player, Blu-ray player, or gaming console.

Additionally, the USB drives can plug into your computer so that the TV episodes can be transferred onto your tablet or smartphone for on-the-go viewing.

All episodes are organized on the drive in folders separated by season and every episode is labeled for ease of reference.

You’ll never again have to worry again about losing, scratching, or coming across a defective disc that you can’t get replaced.

FAQs

Why don’t you sell DVDs in your shop?

DVDs are very unreliable. I used to own a ton of classic series box sets on DVD but over time they just became such a hassle to lug around after each consecutive time I moved. Plus, discs become lost, scratched, and/or hard to replace, and are just an all-around pain to have to store. Plus you have to get up and change discs.

What format are the episodes in?

Every episode is in .mp4 format and labeled (to work seamlessly with Plex).

Are you using USB drives instead of DVDs because they're cheaper?

No. In fact, USB drives cost more. I can buy 100 blank DVD-Rs for $25 on Amazon. Most DVDs, depending on different factors (quality, episode source), can fit between 4 to as many as 20 episodes or more onto a DVD. The more episodes crammed onto a DVD, the lesser the quality of each episode--they're fitting more episodes onto a blank DVD because each episode's quality is lessened so it will take up less space on the blank DVD.

DVDs are simply an inferior medium for bringing TV series to the public.

Do you offer digital downloads?

I sure do! If you’d like a digital copy of any TV show, just shoot me an email and I can upload the series to my Google Drive for you to download.

What if I accidentally erase my files or if my USB becomes damaged?

I offer a lifetime guarantee on anything purchased in my shop. If you need a copy of something you’ve already purchased, just email and I can upload it to my Google Drive for you to re-download. If you’d like a replacement USB, simply return the original and for $5 to cover shipping, I will send out a new copy of your order.

What is the quality of the media?

Each listing explains in more specific detail where the media is coming from, but before listing a TV series, the question I ask myself is, “Would you watch this?” If the quality is bad enough to distract from enjoying the TV show, I won’t sell it.

Also, each page’s credits photos are screengrabs taken directly from the episodes you’re purchasing.

Can I watch these episodes on my phone or tablet?

Absolutely. Just plug the USB drive into your computer and transfer the files onto your smartphone or tablet for viewing on the go!

How long will it take for my purchase to arrive?

In 95% of cases I ship all orders the next day or same day if it is placed before noon. Tracking is provided.

Can I buy individual seasons?

Absolutely. Just reach out to me via email.

What form of payment do you accept?

I only accept Paypal through the website, but if you email me, I can send you an invoice through Paypal and you can pay for your TV show with your credit card!

Do you accept returns?

I gladly accept returns, exchanges, and cancellations

  • Contact me within: 7 days of delivery.

  • Ship items back within: 30 days of delivery with tracking number.

  • Request a cancellation within: 24 hours of purchase

Can I get a sample?

Absolutely. Every TV listing’s page offers a link for you to download sample episodes from every season of the TV series.

How do I play these USB drives on my television?

All modern TVs (flat-panel) have USB input slots located on the back or sides. They are similar in size to the HDMI inputs, except USB inputs are perfect rectangles. You just plug this drive into that slot and the series main screen pops up allowing you to choose your season and episode.

Additionally, if you have a DVD player, Blu-ray player, or gaming console hooked up to your TV already, these devices also have USB inputs with which you can insert your USB flash drive to view your purchased series.

What if I don't see the series I want in your shop?

I have a vast archive of vintage media available to me, so if you don't see something you're after, message me and I'll see what I can find for you!
