GPN is the company authorized by PBS to release all its shows on video. They have the entire series except for the last two cases. These videos are in the original format with each case divided into four or five episodes. Republic Pictures released only three cases (all from the first season) : "Ghost Story", "Who Burned Mr. Brinker's Store?" and "Into the Comics". In Republic Pictures' version, the four or five episodes for each case were edited together into a feature-length movie. The Republic Pictures version is currently out of print, but can still be found in some libraries in the US and Canada only. The GPN version was available to the general public for purchase through their website until 2007. Starting mid-2007, GPN is selling only to schools and libraries due to a change in licensing terms. However, the GPN version is still available in some libraries. In February 2010, it was announced that season one of Ghostwriter would be released on DVD by Shout! Factory. The five-disc set, running 870 minutes long, was released on June 8, 2010,[1] featuring a trivia game and a casebook as bonus materials.[2] References1. ^{{cite web |last=Lambert |first=David |url=http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/news/Ghostwriter-Season-1/13391 |title=Ghostwriter – The Popular '90s PBS Series is Coming to DVD from Shout!
