…and just like that, THE BOB NEWHART SHOW is no longer on any paid or free streaming services as of 2026, as far as I can tell. Worse, Disney only sells the first three seasons on digital. It remains available on linear TV and DVD.
But: it’s no way to treat one of the classics.

Fun fact:
Andy Griffith appeared as Ben Matlock on all 3 major networks.
Seasons 1-6 ran on NBC.
Seasons 7-9 ran on ABC.
Matlock's final TV appearance is a two-part episode in season 4 of Diagnosis: Murder, which aired on CBS.

Have you ever thought about no nuts Don Knotts doing karate? You better watch the ghost and Mr. chicken then. Cause he whips out the moves and it is goddamn hilarious and they are in the town of Rachel, Kansas. By the way I have to say.

Interesting I was only aware of the 1964 Don Knotts film Incredible Mr. Limpet, had no idea there was a 1942 Mr. Limpet book it was based on
