Does anyone know if any of the older shows such as the Galloping Gourmet or James Beard's I Love to Eat ever made it onto video in any form? Perhaps a nostalgia collection of vintage TV. -- Chris Lewis Media Librarian American University Library 202.885.3257 For latest Media Services News visit

A little more googling and it is clear the TV show was never legally released anywhere in the world as far as I can tell. There is multi-volume DVD set from a few eBay sellers, but that is not the TV show, but some later project by the GG On Wed, Aug 17, 2011 at 11:29 AM, Jessica Rosner

I doubt you will have much luck . The film clearly had no US distribution so you have to find the owner/sales agent. The director appears to have a Facebook page and this company seems to deal with some of his films in Europe so maybe they have some information.
