Whispering Smith - TMG is Providing a Way to Watch that Missing Episode from 'The Complete TV Series'
No way to get a physical copy of the single episode if you're missing it from your already-purchased set, but TMG will let you watch it online for free...starting now!

Yesterday we reported that Timeless Media Group had recently upgraded their DVD release of Whispering Smith - The Complete TV Series with an additional episode, previously lost. When then 3-disc set came out last April, it had 25 episodes on it, but since then the studio found the missing 26th episode, "The Interpreter," and added it back on to the third disc in later production runs of that item (those copies are marked with a big yellow sticker on the front that clearly says it's on there).
In yesterday's story we passed along that the studio, unfortunately, is not offering any sort of exchange program to assist fans who have already purchased the 25-episode version of the set, and indications are that there are no plans to put such a program in place for the future. However, TMG has come up with what they refer to as "sort of a work around," for anyone who wants to see that episode. At the Whispering Smith page on their website, TMG has embedded the episode to watch online in a streaming fashion. You can't download that episode, but at least you can check it out, in full. Our thanks to the studio for letting us know; they assure us that if they ever put a mechanism in place for some sort of trade-in program they'll alert us promptly. In the meantime, enjoy the episode online!
