by mechashiva	Jan 3rd, 2006 01:24:23 AM
Now that Once and Again 3.x has been knocked off the schedule, I say we should add that to the list. And to think f-ing Gastineau Girls is getting a box.

Clone High already in Region 1 by FlowCytometer	Jan 3rd, 2006 01:50:28 AM
Granted, it is available in Canada, but that's still R1. http://www.amazon.ca/exec/obid os/ASIN/B000AABKGI/qid=1136274 585/sr=8-1/ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i1_x gl/702-0982097-6489610
Why so much for "MSCL"? by Led Gopher	Jan 3rd, 2006 01:57:26 AM
Granted it was a good show and I had a crush on Claire Danes the whole time the show was on, but why such a hefty price for only 19 episodes?
ACTION! by Mr Brownstone	Jan 3rd, 2006 02:02:41 AM
Yes finally. Also amazed and glad to see the Tom Snyder punk interviews (The Tomorrow Show). That is unexpected to say the least, but very welcome. His Johnny Rotten interview is one of the most hilarious in TV history.
Larry Sanders by Bungion Boy	Jan 3rd, 2006 02:19:05 AM
We need to get some online petition for the rest of the series. I work at HBO and they don't believe people would want it. Of course they're wrong, aren't they? It's in your hands now, great people of the Net.
this stinks by chickychow	Jan 3rd, 2006 02:32:42 AM
it just stinks, and i dont mean the poop in herc's pants, the gross honkey.
Yep, I've Seen Clone High In Stores. Almost Bought It. What by Flim Springfield	Jan 3rd, 2006 02:57:06 AM
...Apparently the music rights are too expensive or something. Which is sad, I loves me the WKRP in Cincinnati...
Larry Sanders, Larry Schmanders. by howlingdervish	Jan 3rd, 2006 03:13:11 AM
What about "It's Garry Shandling's Show?"
Who, please tell me, even wants Twin Peaks Season 2 on DVD? by The Wrong Guy	Jan 3rd, 2006 04:10:53 AM
Let's just stick with the first season as a prime example of flawless storytelling, and forget about the crap that came about in season two. It was absolutely no good.
Twin Peaks Season 2 has its moments by eg4190	Jan 3rd, 2006 06:04:57 AM
I recently watched a torrent of crappy VHS-sourced Divx files. The DVD set would be worth the price just for the two Lynch-directed episodes. The show doesn't appreciably go downhill until after the incredibly creepy episode in which Laura's killer is revealed, and that's halfway through the season. I'll admit it gets pretty rough from there until the last few episodes. But the series finale's Black Lodge scenes rank among the most surreal and unsettling work Lynch has ever done. Gave me nightmares when I was 10, and it still scared the shit out of me when I watched it last month.
wait, seasons 1 and 2 of wiseguy are on DVD? by newc0253	Jan 3rd, 2006 07:54:52 AM
what about 21 jump street?
Black Books by emeraldboy	Jan 3rd, 2006 07:55:06 AM
Black books is a Channel 4 production. So why is it out on BBC video?
The Wrong Guy by Trazadone	Jan 3rd, 2006 07:59:31 AM
It's true that Twin Peaks takes a nose dive (halfway)through season 2, but ONLY after Laura's killer is revealed. Do you really mean to tell me that you don't want the conclusion of the original story to come out? I've been putting off watching my season 1 set because it's an unfinished story.
I know some people, that know some people,... by zer0cool2k2	Jan 3rd, 2006 08:36:32 AM
...that got Clone High off the usenet. What a great premise that show had. I'd love to see a live action version, if they'd keep the same tone. As much as I loved Wiseguy in it's day, that season with Steven Bauer was pretty awful. I'm just glad to have the Steelgrave and Proffit storylines on DVD. BTW, I'm still willing to make a human sacrifice to get Now & Again released on DVD.
Has anyone watched an episode of Hunter recently? by Big Jim	Jan 3rd, 2006 08:55:00 AM
I loved that show when I was younger. I caught an episode recently and was surprised at how violent it was. And not A-Team violent, but more Dirty Harry / Die Hard without the blood violent.
21 Jump Street is on DVD by Big Jim	Jan 3rd, 2006 08:56:00 AM
The first season for sure, possibly the second as well.
That picture of Mary Tyler Moore has made my pantaloons tighter by Behemoth	Jan 3rd, 2006 09:58:43 AM
...is that wrong?
Jeremiah Season 2 by KazamaSmokers	Jan 3rd, 2006 10:34:44 AM
And Mannix, and The War Next Door, and The Exile, and the missing Starhunter S.1, Vol 3.
oh and Traler Park Boys Season 5 by KazamaSmokers	Jan 3rd, 2006 10:36:43 AM
F You, Leahy
any plans for The Wonder Years? by mrgreentheplant	Jan 3rd, 2006 10:49:53 AM
I know it's difficult to clear the music rights (which I'm guessing is the problem with Daria) but so many people I know are looking forward to the show, simply for nostalgic value. seeing fred savage in some crappy new show about a kitchen (how original) just made me pissed i cant buy wonder years. so many classics..
Herc - DESEPERATE HOUSWIVES rules by LilOgre	Jan 3rd, 2006 11:36:19 AM
I know you hate it. I don't know why - but seriously man GET OVER IT.
Rescue Me by jesuschrist	Jan 3rd, 2006 11:51:51 AM
Denis Leary as the asshole super fire fighter. Worth your time.
Don't hold your breath waiting for "Ed" by JohnnyFriendly	Jan 3rd, 2006 12:12:01 PM
And you can't even catch it in sydication anymore since TBS dropped it. "Ed" featured some great background music, especially as far as 80's feel-good pop went. Any show that features that much great music is going to wind up co$ting when it does eventually come out.
When is Spaced ever going to be out in R1? by Han Ol' Buddy	Jan 3rd, 2006 12:43:35 PM
I love the 2 or 3 episodes that I've seen and was the basis of some injokes in Shaun Of The Dead. I sure hope BBC decides to put out a set or at least show it on BBC America.
Every week I come here looking for Daria and Andy Richter by chrth	Jan 3rd, 2006 01:09:36 PM
And every week I die a little more....BTW, can anyone explain to me why Netflix isn't getting BSG 2.0 until 1/17? I wanted to catch up before the new season started, but now I have to TIVO the first few eps. F'ing netflix.
CARNIVALE SEASON 2 by Johnny Smith	Jan 3rd, 2006 01:28:25 PM
For the love of Management! HBO better release this, um, now.
The Real Ghostbusters!!!!! by symphy	Jan 3rd, 2006 01:28:41 PM
AWESOME.
Daria was a poor MTV spin-off of Mike Judge's work.. by ZeroCorpse	Jan 3rd, 2006 01:35:25 PM
And it wasn't done by Mike. It sucked in comparison to anything done by the guy who created the character of Daria in the first place. ---- And on another note, Markie Post's legs look very nice on the "Hearts Afire" cover.
has anyone else noticed by quadrupletree	Jan 3rd, 2006 02:07:00 PM
How much Angie Dickinson looks like Jessica Simpson in that picture?? Weird.
Someone PLEASE rescue "Cupid" from the Phantom Zone of Obscurity by Rufus_T_Firefly	Jan 3rd, 2006 02:48:11 PM
One would think that Mr. Piven's recent "Entourage"-driven popularity would drive someone to release this one to DVD. I must own this one on shiny little silver platters.
Larry Sanders by Avant Retard	Jan 3rd, 2006 02:51:59 PM
Somewhere in England they are playing every Larry Sanders ep in order and some kind folks are putting them in the right places. Now is the time to get Larry Sanders online. Also, somebody add The State to the needs DVDs list.

Eyes episodes by chappai	Jan 3rd, 2006 03:19:23 PM
They actually shot 12 episodes of EYES. They are all currently available on the web through torrent files.
Mary Tyler Legs! by Orionsangels	Jan 3rd, 2006 03:35:01 PM
Nice and that Angie Dickson what a hot babe she was in her day. Thing is by the time these do appear on DVD. You'll be making your, Boxsets denied on Blueray or HD-DVD list.
Bigfoot & Wildboy! or uh... by Orionsangels	Jan 3rd, 2006 03:36:52 PM
Video Power! He's got the video edge for Revenge of Shinobi
tenspeed and brownshoe by twitaman	Jan 3rd, 2006 03:49:40 PM
Wow! I thought I was the only one who remembered that show?!?! I would love to see it on DVD. All I remember that Ben Vereen and Jeff Goldblum had great chemistry and that the dialogue was very witty. In addition, Goldblum really showed what a gifted physical comic he was in that show.
Daria was Better than Beavis and Butthead. There. I said it. by chrth	Jan 3rd, 2006 03:51:21 PM
Seriously, watch Daria (yes, even if you have to watch it edited and with a couple episodes skipped on Noggin) and tell me it's not a great show. Yes, B&B were funny, but are nowhere near as clever as South Park or Daria were, or had the heart that the latter show has.
Another vote for Larry Sanders! by twitaman	Jan 3rd, 2006 03:55:25 PM
Larry Sanders was one of the greatest sitcoms ever. The writing was smart, the cast was pitch perfect (Jeffery Tambor = genius), and it was just a hilarious show to watch. It's a crime that they haven't released the other seasons on DVD. HBO don't be fooled by the supposed lackluster sales of the first season on DVD. That was an inferior issue -- non-existant extras and poor video, and it was also in the relatively early days of DVD when it came out. Put it on DVD!!!
there are 2 daria dvd's on amazon by SydBarretsMyDad	Jan 3rd, 2006 04:03:20 PM
fyi
Rome??? by movieman742	Jan 3rd, 2006 04:52:50 PM
Any word on when the HBO series is coming to dvd?
The Daria DVDs are 'movies' by chrth	Jan 3rd, 2006 05:00:31 PM
They're each 1.5 hours long (minus where commercials would've been), but it's not 3 eps tied together like Stewie Griffin Story ... all Daria fans should buy them.
That Poltergiest DVD cover is literally better than the entire P by Big Bad Clone	Jan 3rd, 2006 05:18:54 PM
Man, what a bad show. I rather watch Psi Factor.
What about MAX HEADROOM? by thethedew	Jan 3rd, 2006 06:25:11 PM
Both the TV show and the movie?? Where is it?
Clone High DVD by lethalegg	Jan 3rd, 2006 06:52:20 PM
Independent vendors are selling it on amazon.com for very reasonable prices, and let me tell you, this DVD is worth whatever it costs, it is by far my favorite in my collection and this show was ingenius. I'd love to see it in stores here in the US, though... Now all we need is a 3 South DVD and I can die a happy man. That, and Freakylinks, goddamn it...
A Gastineau Girls DVD - an OMSTAIN if ever there was one (One Mo by paulh	Jan 3rd, 2006 07:23:46 PM
I'd love to see China Beach on DVD, but that's almost an impossibility since they have maybe more music rights issues than Miami Vice does, with all the Motown stuff in particular. Lucky I still have every episode of the series on VHS and converted it to DVD-R. :)
when the hell will we get pinky and the brain?!?!?!?!?!?! by McLuvin	Jan 3rd, 2006 08:36:41 PM
it's one of the most clever shows i've ever seen and should be released NOW!!
"It's Garry Shandling's Show" and "Rome" by Bungion Boy	Jan 3rd, 2006 09:34:37 PM
Of course "It's Garry Shandling's Show" shouldn't be forgotten and was usually as good as Larry Sanders ever was. I've just seen Larry S sooner. Both shows demand a dvd treatment, espeically since Judd Apatow did Larry Sanders and his releases of Freaks and Geeks and Undeclared were so well put together and full of great things. I vote that he be put in charge of the Larry Sanders discs. Speaking of Rome though, the Season One dvd is in production and will have lots of commentary tracks, deleted scenes, and I hear an alternate ending to the season finale. It will be ready for release by June or so but HBO might hold on to it for a little longer. It would make a great 2006 stocking stuffer... IF YOU HAVE ODDLY SHAPED FEET! (David Letterman)

Holy Fuck! Action on DVD? Yes! Finally, Peter Dragon will return! Fuckin-A!
Anything But Love by howstone	Jan 4th, 2006 10:03:04 AM
If "Hearts Afire" is out, then we should have Anything But Love, which ran in the early 90's with Richard Lewis and Jamie Lee Curtis. It was a great sitcom with similarities to Moonlighting, and like that show it started to suck after the leads slept together. Still, the first three years were great.
WKRP! by barchetta	Jan 4th, 2006 10:49:15 AM
I want to know two things: 1) Why isn't WKRP in Cincinnati on your list and 2)why hasn't it been released? Every bit as classic as most of the dreck they're releasing and something I'd absolutely pay for. Truth is, I only expect to buy three series ever anyway: Cheers, Moonlighting and WKRP.
WKRP oops! by barchetta	Jan 4th, 2006 10:55:16 AM
Clearly, I need to read mor thoroughly as my question was already answered. Music rights suck, man! It's a shame they couldn't negotiate a deal to allow for waived/reduced royalties to makit financially viable. Hell, the washed up former artists who made all the music should be happy just for the free exposure!
Twitch City by Darth Ranma	Jan 4th, 2006 11:08:27 AM
I want Twitch City. Best Sit-com ever.
Where's my Strange Luck DVD already? by cromulent	Jan 4th, 2006 11:19:19 AM
ten years later and still nothing.
Umm... Who's the Boss? by Little Beavis	Jan 4th, 2006 11:21:03 AM
Something more than just the first season would be much appreciated. I can't be the only one out there craving some post-pubescent Milano wankage.
FYI, The Tick is showing... by mbeemer	Jan 4th, 2006 12:41:55 PM
...on Toon Disney every night at 11:00 PM EDT.
I want my backward talking midget by Guy Gaduois	Jan 4th, 2006 12:46:52 PM
And I want him to dance; I want this now. Lynda Carter has quite a rack, but a disturbingly squared off crotch. Looks like Barbie in this regard. The Tick animated has some pretty poor quality bootlegs available on Ebay. Also the Mighty, Mighty Heroes - which, as I watched it was not nearly as good as it seemed when shown at the Drive in in the early 70s. Go figure - another childhood memory proven incredibly inaccurate. oops.
When the hell will we get Spiderman: TAS by RezE11even	Jan 4th, 2006 01:09:45 PM
That show rocked unholy ass.
Where the Hell is Ed Grimley? by GooBoy	Jan 4th, 2006 01:25:59 PM
I am very tired of watching my crappy DVR episodes of The Completely Mental Misadventures of Ed Grimley? Where is my box set, dammit?!?! I am also waiting very patiently for MTV to release the best of The State on DVD. I have the video (which was incredible) but who the hell has VHS anymore? And am I the only one in the world who remembers USA's very short lived show The War Next Door? Truly one of the best sitcoms to never make it big! I WANT I WANT I WANT!!! Is that so wrong?
Doctor Who new series region 1 box Feb 14 by pseudowho	Jan 6th, 2006 04:31:52 AM
Oh, and I want Twin Peaks season two (with Log Lady intros) more than almost any other title I can think of. I'd even take them no frills - just episodes and the intros - and I'd be happy.
The Tick by scrivener	Jan 6th, 2006 12:27:30 PM
There was an awesome show. I'd also love to have Freakazoid and Twin Peaks S2 on DVD.
Where the hell is AMAZING STORIES??? by slone13	Jan 6th, 2006 02:41:10 PM
Anyone heard ANYTHING about a release for that series?
Re: Amazing Stoies by Bungion Boy	Jan 6th, 2006 03:11:24 PM
I heard a report over a year ago that the first two seasons or so would be released on dvd in Feb 2005. I've heard nothing since. Don't know what the hold up is. Great show. Ditto on the Freakazoid. Good call, Scrivener.
