In reply to the many comments who asked for Fury to reappear on DVD, I just bought a German box-set yesterday (region 2, 4 DVDs in a spiffy wooden box, the first 24 episodes of season 1, 10 hours altogether), and for just 9.99 euro at MediaMarkt. A good deal, I'd say.Together with Lassie, Flipper, Bonanza etc., Fury was one of the TV serials that influenced my childhood in the 1960s, and I really enjoyed watching it again, after so many years (in the pilot episode, my eyes were full of tears from the emotion). Ah, and the period cars that show up for some seconds in many episodes..The sound on this edition is optionally German or English, no subtitles are offered. Picture quality is decent for black-and-white, aspect ration is 4:3 of course.I could fill all my evenings with re-experiencing old TV shows now - if it's not Fury, then the Flintstones, or the Rockford Files... I'm very happy that so much old material is available again, at very reasonable prices.

Oh!!!! I loved it...."Fury...the story of a horse, and a boy who loved him" Anytime I talk with someone about old TV shows, this is the one I ask about. I don't often find people who loved this show like I did.It was wonderful to read everybody's comments about it. I agree, this is a classic that should be run today. We do need more shows like this.Funny, my husband just read a statistic to me about the percentage of American's who lived on farms swapping from 80% who did prior to WWII and down to 20% after that period. Today, I think it is 2%.I dreamed of living on a farm since I was a little girl. I am sure this show was part of what fed that dream. We are currently building a house on 50 acres. I'm thrilled. My own Fury??? Maybe someday.

What a wonderful show Fury was. I remember watching it as a child every Saturday morning on NBC. I watched it for years, collected Fury memorabilia and still have some. This was a favorite show of mine. That horse was smart, all right. I even did research on what happened to him---died in 1972, age 29, and lived a glorious life--better than most humans, that's for sure. But the show was more than just about a horse. It was essentially the story of America, the modern American west and values. If values are so important today, why isn't Fury rerun. It really should be. I don't know who owns the tapes, but it should be investigated and put back on Nick at Nite or TV Land. It was and remains a classic. What a horse!!!

Fury was a great show. I couldn't wait till it came on every Saturday morning. We need more shows like this now for the kids. Joey was an orphan that Jim Newton found in town one day fighting with another kid. He went to court with Joey, and convinced the judge to let him come and stay on the "Broken Wheel Ranch." Joey befriended Fury and was the only one who could ever ride him. The show had a lot of great adventures with the two, and the rest is history. We need this show back on in re-runs.
