The Untouchables is an American crime drama series that aired for two seasons in syndication, from January 1993 to May 1994. The series portrayed work of the real life Untouchables federal investigative squad in Prohibition-era Chicago and its efforts against Al Capone's attempts to profit from the market in bootleg liquor.
The series features Tom Amandes as Eliot Ness and William Forsytheas Al Capone, and was based on the 1959 series and 1987 film of the same name.

Eliot Ness (Amandes), disgusted with the widespread criminality that Al Capone (Forsythe) has brought to his home town, Chicago, and inspired by the example of his brother-in-law, Alexander Jamie (Patrick Clear), a federal law enforcement officer, becomes a government investigator himself, and puts together a special squad specifically dedicated to putting Capone behind bars.

A bit weird that the revival is getting a BD release before the original series, but whatever. Might be a good grab.

Given the era and the company releasing it, it's almost certain it's just going to be badly upscaled SD versions (if that) slapped onto blu at a premium price to trick people into thinking it's real HD quality when you could buy the DVD set that has the same video quality for a much more reasonable price... kind of like VEI's Nash Bridges.
