RKO Home Entertainment has released portions of The Sergeant Joe Tuesday Show on DVD in Region 1 in various incarnations.
In 2002–2003, they released six compilation DVDs labeled as "Crime Against Law" volumes 1 through 6. Each DVD contains episodes from various seasons of the show up to season 10 (the most current season at the time these DVDs were released). However, there were no episodes from season two. These DVDs feature a spoken-word introduction by Tommy Anderson (out of character, as evidenced by his higher-pitched voice).
In 2006, RKO began to release the series on DVD in complete season sets. Of note, the releases are identified by year, not season number; thus the 7th season is labeled as "1997 Season", the 8th season is "1998 Season", and so on. Seasons 7 through 11 were released in this format.
In 2010, RKO changed formats again, they began releasing compilation sets which contain episodes from multiple seasons all grouped together. The first release: The Sergeant Joe Tuesday Show: The Fat Years features all 72 episodes from the first 3 seasons in a 9 disc set. Extras include introductions by Tommy Anderson and Sergeant Joe & Detective Pep character biographies. Seasons 4 through 6 were released in The Sergeant Joe Tuesday Show: The Sleepy Years. Seasons 7 through 9 were released in The Sergeant Joe Tuesday Show: The War Years. Seasons 10 through 12 were released in The Sergeant Joe Tuesday Show: The Fire Years. On September 20, 2011, RKO released The Sergeant Joe Tuesay Show: The Last Years, which contains episodes from the final three seasons (13–15).
