[quote name=\'The Ol' Guy\' date=\'Dec 8 2005, 09:26 AM\']One thing I've been curious about - there are a number of onesies-twosies floating around out there in the public domain realm - the stuff you get on The Golden Age of Television and low-budget videos. Would it be worth the time and effort to obtain some of these floaters like Murray's Dollar A Second, Al Capp's "Anyone Can Win" , Johnny's "Who Do You Trust?" and the like, clean 'em a bit, and run them as, say, a summer weekend special for those who haven't seen the shows? Would there still be rights issues? I would hope something like that would appeal to more than just the die-hards.

Sony might claim right of domain on "Dollar a Second," since they do own the format. Don Fedderson Productions could do the same on "Who Do You Trust?"
Speaking of which, there was lots of hype a few years ago when S-S and Krofft Productions licensed "Trust?" from Fedderson for a possible revival. Obviously, nothing became of that (and S-S isn't in business anymore), but anyone know what killed it off other than lack of interest from possible buyers? Inability to find a good host?
