This link was printed in The Tennessean on Sunday:
https://www.mediaenterprises.tv/store/product.php?productid= 16320
It appears to be for a set of 22 region free DVD-R discs, and the list
of episodes corresponds according to my memory to the VHS collection
which sold in the US about ten years ago. In other words, I cannot say
this is an official release in conformity with copyright law, but I am
pointing it out as a matter of interest to readers of AFJB. As for me,
I am waiting for the owners to get their butts in gear and release the
series with Vaughn and McCallum interviews.

I agree with you. I see that there is a Region 2 DVD release of
several U.N.C.L.E. movies (not all of them) but nothing for the USA.
One wonders what the hold-up is as there is a lot of terrible stuff
making DVD release and no U.N.C.L.E.? I do see that Season One of THE
WILD WILD WEST is due out on June 6th. That is a step in the right
direction.

MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE was rumoured for a release to coincide with
the new film; doesn't look like that's going to happen now.
I've seen very little of THE WILD WILD WEST and none of the B&W
episodes.

I loved WILD WILD WEST when it was playing first run. Conrad and
Martin had a great chemistry and it was more than just Bond in the
west. Several of the programs had a supernatural feel about them.
Well worth watching.

I read recently that Will Smith is about to perform a similar cinematic
atrocity with IT TAKES A THIEF.

The best thing Will Smith ever did was "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air."

That wasn't even all that wonderful a tv show, although it had its
moments. When he remakes Mannix, Hollywood will have gone as low as it can
go to avoid thinking up any new ideas.

I don't know... I rather enjoyed ID4 opening night at midnight (first few
hours of July 4th that year) on the big screen with it's patriotic theme and
some of David Arnold's best scoring to date...
