Yes, Danny was underestimated & his shows sadly ignored in recent years by TV channels, even while documentaries by both TV Land & PBS have acknowledged his contributions.
If not for Thomas & his production company (with Sheldon Leonard), we might never have seen the following programs on TV: "The Real McCoys," "The Andy Griffith Show," "The Dick Van Dyke Show," "Gomer Pyle, USMC" and "The Mod Squad," among others.
A few years ago one video company released the fifth season of Danny's sitcom, and now Season 6 has been reeased by another company, which plans to release all the remaining seasons, I'm told.
There are also public domain releases of the first four seasons of his show, when it was on ABC & called "Make Room For Daddy" (also the syndication title, by which all seasons are more popularly known). Hopefully, in about five years time, most of Danny's sitcoms' episodes will be available on home video. But it still wouldn't hurt to write to TV Land & request they air the program, so new generations, as well as us old fans, may see Thomas' great shows again!
S'more entertainment released the 6th season with the full episodes in great quality, however they might not release the rest of the seasons unless the sales go up. If you can please email s'more entertainment to request more seasons of the danny thomas show/make room for daddy!

What are those paintings behind Danny Thomas with the wide eyes called? My sisters had those when they were teenagers.

Jack Benny and Danny Thomas---Funny, funny funny! I think Danny Thomas was underestimated as a comedian, though. He was really funny!
