For those who don't know, My Living Doll was a sci-fi sitcom that ran for a single 26-episode season on CBS from September 27, 1964, to March 17, 1965. It starred Bob Cummings as psychiatrist Dr. Bob McDonald and Julie Newmar (shortly before she became well-known for her role as Catwoman in the 1966 Batman TV series) as lifelike robot Rhoda Miller.
It wasn't released on any home media format until 2012 when MPI Home Video released a two-disc DVD set in Region 1 containing 11 episodes-sourced from 16mm prints from the collections of fans of the show due to the destruction of the original 35mm prints during the 1994 Northridge, California Earthquake.
Also of interest, the status of the episodes other than the 11 released on DVD is currently unknown, though they may exist somewhere as 16mm prints. Unless someone somewhere happens to have 35mm prints of this short-lived show, unfortunately, they have been permanently lost for over two decades.
