Telepictures Corporation AmericanLife TV Network is showing the third season of "My Favorite Martian" through the help of Warner Bros. Television. Every other week they are showing each episode in their original format as it was in the fall of 1965 to the spring of 1966 in color. One week a 1965 color episode then the following week a B&W 1964 to 1965 second season episode and then follow by another third season episode.
I don't know if Warner Brothers is running a test to see what kind of a response it will get but it might led to a new re-release of all three season by Warner Brothers. They may only release it on HD-DVD's but only the future will tell.
I am only guessing about all of this because of them televising the series only on one channel in a very large number count. I do not have HDTV, so if they are televising this series on those channels I have no way of knowing. My DVR makes it possible to search through all of the channels that I receive a program. This is how I found My Favorite Martian on one station out of 1000 channels with the exceptions of HDTV.
The show is being televised once a week. There is a repeat of the same episode at midnight but the new one does not come on until the following Friday.
In my own personal view, I doubt that "Rhino" will ever release the third season. So, if you can capture it on TV go for it.

If you're a fan of campy 60s comedy as I am, this is for you. Likeable characters, good writing--they don't make 'em like this anymore.

The martians are coming,well one for sure. I've purchased dvd's from the rhino label in the past and have been very disappointed with the quality.After much deliberation i finally bought season one of "My Favorite Martian.I must admit that rhino did and excellent job with this one.all 37 season one episodes are presented in beautiful b&w.The video transfer is really clean and crisp and the sound is decent.The packaging is really kind of cheap for this 3 disc set and rhino didn't include any kind of episode booklet to accompany the set.I don't think Ray Walston ever got the recognition he deserved as an actor.Season one is still funny after all these years and it's a treat to finally own it on dvd.Thanks rhino!

I have only watched 5 episodes so far, but have enjoyed them. The show isn't hilarious like "I Love Lucy" (eg Vitameatavegamin episode) and I would probably term it a drama/comedy rather than a straight out comedy.
The picture and sound quality is excellent. I would prefer single sided disks to double sided disks (disk 3 is single sided), just necessitates getting out the white cotton gloves!!!
I would also have preferred if they had spent a few cents more on the packaging so that disks 2 and 3 weren't back to back. However if you are careful when handling the dvds it technically shouldn't be a problem.
I have noticed two inconsistencies so far:
Tim and Uncle Martin apparently live upstairs, however the image outside his living room window shows a house at street level. Technically the view from the window, from inside the room, shouldn't include the side-walk and fence of the neighbours house (well at least not at the angle shown).
Episode 5 (Man or Amoeba).
This episode should have been episode 2 (or closer to the beginning) because Tim questions that Uncle Martin is from Mars, and is surprised when he disappears and puts up his antenna. I think it was Episode 3(?) when Uncle Martin had a cold and he kept disappearing and putting up/down his antenna. Thus (technically) Tim would have known about these two abilities. Maybe they did a cut and paste of an unused scene from an earlier episode and inserted it into Episode 5?
I look forward to seeing if I can find other inconsistencies (a bit like finding hidden Mickeys at Disneyland!!!)
