You may not redistribute, excerpt or post on social media. Video segments may not be used to market or advertise a company, service or product.

Can I order an old TV show/game show where I was a contestant?

Many of the older shows no longer exist in our archive or have copyright issues that forbid us from selling them to the public. One popular exception is JUST LIKE MOM. Several seasons’ worth of episodes from this program have been located.
