Some TV series are not available for a number of reasons: the source material is gone or is not in good condition, the series was produced on videotape and the quality/resolution is very dodgy, the original producers or production companies are no longer around and there is a question of who has the rights, the series may have used published music and did not secure the rights for all media (past, present, future), etc. The number of possibilities is large and usually involves lawyers and we all know how convoluted and drawn out anything involving lawyers can be...

My brother liked Spencer for Hire. Anything close to John D. McDonald I guess. I'm not quite sure why we haven't had a Travis McGee series instead of just a few made for TV movies.
