I read once that the movies were banned by FOX for quite a while because the wife of some network bigwig found them "offensive". But the demand led to very profitable DVD releases instead. They are almost all available on commercial DVDs...pretty cheaply too if you shop online. I like all of the actors who played Chan...although, yes, Warner Oland's films are the best. In part due to better production values as well as the actor.

By the way in reference to FOX I meant 20th Century FOX, not FNC. Although I bet Alan Colmes and Geraldo would find them “offensive” too.
