Reply #4: I wish there were SOME way to see the original "social issue" programs

[Lydia Leftcoast]

from the early 1960s other than Naked City and Route 66.

In particular, now that a new version of The Defenders is on the air, I wish Netflix could acquire rights to the early version, which is not available anywhere. East Side/West Side, starring a young George C. Scott as a New York social worker, Slattery's People, with Richard Crenna as a state legislator, and The Nurses, which dealt with social issues more than the other medical programs of the time, would all be fascinating looks at the sociology of 50 years ago.
