I want to see Jake and the Fatman released on DVD> I have seen it on the internet being sold from copies off the television and that does not seem legal to me. I want to buy the full series on dvd legally.

Jake & the Fatman entire series
I watched Jake & the Fatman every week it was on, even the re-runs. I already have the first two seasons on DVD. I have been watching & waiting for the final three seasons to come out on DVD. I see lots of people asking, but no action on the part of CBS to release these final seasons. Please make a lot of people happy by releasing the final three seasons of Jake& The Fatman.
Thank you,
Smiley Rombach
