Some rarely seen (or even heard of) offerings are also due out early next year from Timeless Media as they have announced The Lawbreakers - The Complete Series and West Point - The Complete Series.

Lawbreakers is a Lee Marvin hosted and narrated semi-documentary drama series that re-creates real-life crime cases. Known guest stars are probably minimal.

West Point, a military drama focusing on the famous military academy, has a number notable guest stars including Chuck Connors, Clint Eastwood, Barbara Eden, Steve McQueen, Martin Milner, Dick Sargent and Leonard Nimoy.

Each will be a 4-disc set and bonus features are not expected.


West Point (also known as The West Point Story) produced with the full cooperation of the United States Department of Defense and the United States Military Academy was based on actual files documenting many of the real-life dramatic occurrences at West Point in New York over the years.

The weekly programming initially was hosted by a fictional cadet (Donald May), but by the end of the first season it was abandoned. Running from 1956 to 1957 the show featured big name guest stars such as Chuck Connors, Clint Eastwood and Barbara Eden. It also showcased a young writer named Gene Roddenberry who wrote 9 episodes of West Point before going on to create the classic original Star Trek television program.

The Lawbreakers - The Complete Series (No Artwork Yet)
For decades, generations of viewers have tuned in faithfully to witness the dirty deeds, and clean resolutions, that televised crime shows routinely deliver. It's a time proven format that never fails to satisfy justice served, in well under an hour.

One of the first television crime dramas to feature semi-documentary re-creations of real life cases, Lee Marvin Presents - The Lawbreakers pioneered a format that is still wildly popular almost fifty years later. Marvin's tough-as-nails persona and his trademark no nonsense delivery shine through as he guides us through a sordid collection of criminal activity extracted from the crime dockets of some of America s biggest cities.
