The Acorn Media Group publishes a variety of television sets for the entertainment of the public. They have a variety of titles available and were founded in 1997. They mostly specialize in DVD box sets in a variety of genres, including situation comedies and dramas. There are a lot of titles that individuals might recall from their earlier days:
Father Dowling, who was played by Tom Bosley of Happy Days fame, is a Catholic priest who moonlights as a detective when he is not too busy hearing confessions or preaching sermons. He is aided in this endeavor by a rather worldly nun sidekick. This series is available on DVD and originally ran from 1989 to 1991.
Another incredibly popular show that the Acorn Media Group offers on DVD would be that of the Antiques Roadshow. This show, which was mostly popularized in the United States, actually had its roots way back in 1979. Originally the show documented a London antique auction house and the artifacts that they came across.
Who Do You Think You Are? is another unique offering by Acorn Media. The basic premise of this show is that various celebrities go on a search to determine what kind of ancestors they had and the stories they might have had as well. This would be a good show to consider if you have a genealogy enthusiast in your family.
These and many other shows are offered by the Acorn Media Group.
