Guess they tracked down who ever owns Pumaman.

Mixed bag. I like Captive Women and Pumaman, but the other two aren't fantastic.

I'm gonna go against the grain and say that Puma Man was disappointing to me, not bad, but it just failed to live up to the hype. I am more excited about the other three in this collection. Probably my favorite Hercules, One of their best IMHO season 1s, and a great season 8. I am looking forward to this set, it looks to be a good one.

Super excited to finally be getting a commercial copy of 112 - Untamed Youth--maybe my favorite Season 1 episode! This is a solid set that I'm much more excited about than the previous release! Finally getting another Herc movie--the Herc series is hit or miss for me... this is a good-not-great Herc episode. I didn't used to care too much for 805 - The Thing That Couldn't Die, but I've really grown to love it. And PumaMan used to be one of my favorite episodes of the SciFi years! Happy about this set! Hoorah... or huzzah or whatever! And, it would be interesting to know who or where they found the rights to PumaMan after all of this time of trying to track it down.

I can't believe they tracked down the rights holder to Pumaman! Massive kudos to Shout! Now, if only they could convince Jim & Joel that season zero is magical... Anyhoo, I love The Pyoomamin. It's not my #1 favorite episode but the riffing's just right and I dig the era of the film, as well as the general Greatest American Hero-ness of it. And I like the theme song! "Pu-ma-man, when will he find love?" Earwormy goodness.
805 is another good episode and special to me as I believe it was my very first episode, way back in 1997.
112 is indeed one of the better season 1 episodes and notable for featuring an atypical film genre for that season.
412 is one of the few episodes I haven't seen so I'm greatly looking forward to it!
Great set!

To honor Shout for this magnificent collection, I declare that Today is dedicated to Uranus.

"Puma Man, He flies like a moron!"
HELL YEAH!
Thank you Shout Factory for delivering Puma Man to DVD at last. This episode has been wanted for years, it's awesome they finally tracked down the rights holder. Can't wait to find out who.
The rest of the set is solid, another Hercules movie and The Thing That Couldn't Die are most welcome. Thing was the one that was expected the most.
Can't wait for this one!

GREAT set! One of the best first season episodes, two Sci-Fi classics, and the long awaited return of HURCULES!
I'm so glad we're finally getting Pumaman. They had me sweating bullets over whether or not they'd be able to track the rightsholders down.

Fantastic! Untamed Youth is one of my favorites--and my first MST episode! (The friend I watched it with didn't seem to get it though. Especially during the Tribute to Greg Brady host segment when he turned to me with this utterly lost expression on his face, shaking his head in profound incomprehension!) And Pumaman! "The Pumaman...The Pumaman...The Pumaman...the pumaman...." And isn't The Thing That Couldn't Die where Tom & Crow say they're gonna write the movie a thank you note when the two gals announce they're gonna sleep together? Good times. Now begins the long wait.

Fan-flippin-tabulous! 4 of my favorite episodes, hope it's loaded with just as great extras.
I'd love to hear how they finally tracked down Puma Man

Glad that Pumaman will finally be getting a commercial release! Maybe they could make a featurette about the long journey to finding the rights for the episode, I'd be interested in seeing how that played out.

Hell, I'm kind of hoping for a making of doc on Pumaman itself. I'd really like to see the cast talk about that loser of a movie.

holy poopie holy poopie! One of my MUST HAVES (The Pumaman), an episode I really wanted for the sake of a Hercules marathon, and two I have yet to see.
But Pumaman... that is a BIG win. Damn, I'm so happy.
