Not that I've looked very hard for it, but I'd like to see MEN INTO SPACE, a one-season series circa 1962 starring William Lundigan. There was even a toy line tie-in.
In need of restoration is Bob Cummings' series LOVE THAT BOB aka THE BOB CUMMINGS SHOW, that was on for several seasons in the mid 1950s. It was very funny and Cummings had a deadpan style not unlike Jack Benny. It so influenced my impression of him that I can't watch any of his dramatic movies today w/o feeling he's about to make a wisecrack.
I was very impressed with Lloyd Bridges' series SEA HUNT produced by ZIV if I recall correctly. Most of it was filmed outdoors on boats and underwater. As a budding film buff I spotted veteran actors who guested on various episodes. For example, I remember seeing an obese Tom Brown and I couldn't believe how heavy he had gotten since say, BUCK PRIVATES COME HOME (1947). If I had to pick only one TV series I'd like to see again, SEA HUNT would be it.
