Shows I've never seen: M Squad coming to DVD

Filed under: Other Drama Shows, TV on DVD, Reality-Free

It's great that recent shows we love, whether it's Mad Men or Seinfeld or The Sopranos, get released on DVD so we can watch every episode again any time that we want. But the true greatness of the DVD technology is that we get to see shows that we've never seen before, because we were too young to watch them when they first aired and they're not rerun in syndication like I Love Lucy or The Honeymooners.

The latest show to be released - and getting the Complete Series treatment! - is M Squad, a black and white detective series from the late 50s that starred Lee Marvin as a Chicago undercover cop. The set will include 15 discs, 14 that will house the episodes of the show and another disc that will feature the show's music. What's most interesting about this release is that at first it was supposed to be only a Very Best Of set, because the studio didn't have all of the episodes. They sent out a plea to fans and collectors to see if they had a copy of any missing episodes on videotape, and the fans came through. So now it's a Complete Series set and not just a Very Best Of.

The set will be released on September 23.

Song of the Day: "Keep Coming Back" by Marc
Broussard

A while ago a friend sent me the video for Marc Broussard's low-down soulful song "Home," and I fell in love instantly. The video is beautifully shot; a loving portrayal of Broussard's southern journey, well, home. It's a catchy, percussive song that's made more emotional by Broussard's passionate vocals.

His next album, Keep Coming Back, is due to release Sept. 16 and I was able to get an early taste of the title track.

I gotta say, I'm really liking Broussard's stuff. He's undoubtedly talented and blessed with a powerful, sultry voice. "Keep Coming Back" is a soul-infused frenzy of horns, piano and a lively choral backup. I might like "Home" better as a song, but "Keep Coming Back" is more dancey and mood-lifting. To hear it for yourself,
