24 Season 6 Prequel by topaz4206	Dec 5th, 2006 01:02:10 AM
Is the Season 6 Prequel on the S5 DVD set, like they've done in previous years? I heard it exists, but I've only seen it on the internet in horrible quality.
Herc, add the Twin Peaks season 2 date for April!... by DanielKurland	Dec 5th, 2006 01:18:15 AM
I don't recall exactly offhand, I think it's the 20th, but it's all over the net. Add it!
Bosom Buddies by Evil Lincoln	Dec 5th, 2006 01:26:53 AM
Tom Hanks and Peter Scolari? Oh man, just because a series is old doesn't mean it's a classic! I remember watching this show in the 80's but I'm not interested in revisiting it.

Don't deny it.
"almost overloaded with great characters" by newc0253	Dec 5th, 2006 03:31:19 AM
yeah, many of whom were killed in the opening 10 minutes. seriously, i'd like to say day 5 was my favourite (esp with david fury and manny coto writing) but i can't: the first 15 hours were brilliant but the whole cat-and-mouse with Logan after that was kinda flat. the last couple of hours were great though.
Hawaii Five O by mrfan	Dec 5th, 2006 05:16:38 AM
Looking forward to this one. Jack Lord was the coolest cop and didn't take shit from no one. Great show.
Lorenzo Lamas... by GermanCity	Dec 5th, 2006 05:59:34 AM
...is The Immortal? I know Buffy has iffy taste in men, but come on.
24 box set by moviemaniac-7	Dec 5th, 2006 06:32:34 AM
I own the region 2 one, that was released almost a month ago. Since the show started here in September or something in the Netherlands, I had to grind my teeth and ignore the broadcast, already awaiting it from Amazon early November. I managed to keep spoiler free all along the year (that included NOT READING whatever Herc and the talkbackers had to say - quite hard). This season (the 5th) is f***ing awesome! Brilliance from the first till the very last minute. Too bad that the season 6 prequel is not on the region 2 dvd box set. There is one floating around on the net for the past week or so, BUT IT IS A FAKE. It uses all these 'old' movies with Kiefer, Morshower, et al and intercuts it. Nicely done, but obviously a fake (the movie with Sutherland in the prison camp is TO END ALL WARS - quite a good movie, but with Kiefer very not Bauer-esque). Can't wait until the real prequel pops online somewhere - I guess today or tomorrow.
Picked up Twilight Zone the other day from Amazon by Trazadone	Dec 5th, 2006 06:34:30 AM
When I purchased the set Amazon said, "Only 2 available". Now there's only one, haha. Well worth it.
24 by Franklin T Marmoset	Dec 5th, 2006 07:10:02 AM
I was a little disappointed with this last season of 24. It started very well with the shooting and the explosions and the many cast members seeking other employment opportunities, but somewhere about halfway through it kind of ran out of steam for me. The story went all floaty and seemed to be - if I remember correctly - about Jack chasing a cassette tape. And this cassette tape did not have a bomb or a virus or had kidnapped Kim or anything. It was just a regular cassette tape. Not very thrilling. Also, the bit with the submarine felt like someone tacked it on when they realised they were making an action show about a man in hot pursuit of a dictaphone. I did like very much the man who played President not-Nixon, though. he was very good, and also not a crook.
Post the link to the season 6 prequel when you find it by Ricky Henderson	Dec 5th, 2006 07:15:51 AM
I need to see that bad boy stat, and I don't care if its crappy youtube quality. Anyone who claims season 5 was better than season 2 needs to have their head examined, DAMNIT! WE'RE RUNNING OUT OF TIME!
The Emma Peel Megaset is 50% Off Too by tonagan	Dec 5th, 2006 07:54:30 AM
I'm supposed to be buying gifts for other people, you bastard! :)
dungeons and dragons! by Mr_X	Dec 5th, 2006 08:23:58 AM
the best cartoon ever! did they make it back home?
Happy tree Friends by jccalhoun	Dec 5th, 2006 09:15:02 AM
Happy Tree Friends started as a web cartoon. I first heard of them 4-5 years ago. You can watch lots of the episodes at www.happytreefriends.com Lorenzo Lamas was in a show called the Immortal and he had a sword? How did I miss this Highlander ripoff???
Lorenzo by Knobules	Dec 5th, 2006 09:32:00 AM
Could that guy me any more of an egomaniac?
My So Called Life by mrtwig48	Dec 5th, 2006 09:38:17 AM
For $230? Most of you all were about 4 when it came out.
what my almost-2 yr old sez when HI-5 begins by durhay	Dec 5th, 2006 10:39:53 AM
FIVE! FIVE! FIVE! FIVE! FIVE! FIVE! FIVE! FIVE! FIVE! FIVE! FIVE! FIVE! FIVE! FIVE! FIVE! FIVE! FIVE! FIVE! FIVE! FIVE! FIVE! FIVE! FIVE! FIVE! FIVE!
24 Season 6 trailer by Grendler	Dec 5th, 2006 11:17:25 AM
The trailer has been online for a month at 24trailer.com. Unfortunately I can't get it to play anymore, it hangs after the ad. Ah well, it wasn't as good as the season 5 prequel anyway.
"since no other series more resembles “Alias.”" by slder78	Dec 5th, 2006 12:22:01 PM
Uh it should be reversed. Alias resembles M:I b/c M:I CAME FIRST!
I can't rate the 24 seasons by CTU Mole	Dec 5th, 2006 12:33:41 PM
I just started with the airing of season 5 and since have bought them all. They're honestly equally great, all for different reasons. That's not to say there aren't weak points in each...we're talking about entire seasons of a TV show. But episode for episode it's the best TV show I've ever seen and I'm a Trekkie.
Gunsmoke? by Megaladon	Dec 5th, 2006 12:48:51 PM
Does anyone know if Gunsmoke is planned to be released season by season?
On The Immortal cover by Big Jim	Dec 5th, 2006 12:56:44 PM
what's up with the chick with the jazz-hands? Is she supposed to look menacing, or is she trying out for a Broadway musical?
"Emergency The Movie" Casting... by modlight	Dec 5th, 2006 01:33:07 PM
I've never heard of that show, but judging from that cover I'm gonna say Clint Howard and Steve Coogan.
Season 6 Prequel Link by topaz4206	Dec 5th, 2006 02:41:04 PM
Well it is available if you search at mininova, but it is a rip from the official 24trailer.com website, in its original crappy WMV quality. About 10 min long.
Damn! by Mr Incredible	Dec 5th, 2006 02:41:29 PM
They can put crappy Highlander ripoffs on DVD, but where the hell is Sammo Hung's Martial Law TV series?!
Venture Brothers for $8.99? What a bargain! by Mr Incredible	Dec 5th, 2006 02:43:00 PM
Too bad I have it already.
Erotic adventures of Marcus Welby M.D.? by Baron Karza	Dec 5th, 2006 02:44:43 PM
When is this freakin show going to get a DVD treatment?
Bosom Buddies At Last!!!!! by rpalompo	Dec 5th, 2006 08:12:48 PM
It's about time! This is some of the best comedic stuff Tom Hanks has ever done! And he had great chemistry with Peter Scolari. This was a precursor to "Friends" and one of the best shows that made pop culture references in the '80s.
That's interesting about Lost, also, with Bosom Buddies by DanielKurland	Dec 5th, 2006 08:36:21 PM
...the best thing about it was it's stereotypical theme song, complete with them hiding in a manhole as one thing, and then coming out as another. I really wish shows today had those incredibly self-aware, cheesy title sequences.
Criminal Intent: Season 2 by waylayer	Dec 5th, 2006 10:05:44 PM
About time. Nicole vs Bobby...round 1! Why was this released after all the other seasons?
Five-O! Thank you Baby Jesus! by OtisSpofford	Dec 6th, 2006 03:00:17 AM
You too, Herc - damn, after seeing all these third-rate sitcoms and craptacular dramas get their day in the DVD sun, I finally will have a chance to hear those immortal words, "Book 'im, Dano - Murder One!" and "Chin - check every club and restaurant on this rock!" - and Zulu as Kono - bruddah, it don't get no beddah!
Seen it, loved it (24 prequel) by moviemaniac-7	Dec 6th, 2006 03:58:29 AM
Although a blatant commercial for Toyota, it's awesome. I hoped that they would cut away and give us some more info on what happens in the US right before episode 1 of day 6...
Bosom Buddies: The Movie by Mr Incredible	Dec 6th, 2006 09:08:43 AM
It's on it's way. You and I know it. And it will suck.
Space Academy?? by Mr Incredible	Dec 6th, 2006 09:15:27 AM
I bet that hasn't aged well, either. Oh, well. At least, I have Airwolf Season 2.
Will 5-0 have the pilot? Will Busom Buddies be cut? by ckane123	Dec 6th, 2006 09:36:08 AM
Will the 5-0 set have the two-hour pilot movie? Will the Busom Buddies DVD have the original Billy Joel theme somg? Herc, anyone?
I can't believe you didn't mention Garret Morris. by 3 Bag Enema	Dec 6th, 2006 11:28:17 AM
Comedy God? Damn straight! And he could sing, sorta, too!
Any word on the next season of Cheers. by mrfan	Dec 6th, 2006 02:59:46 PM
Looking forward to seasons 9-11 and haven't heard a word. I miss the crazy antics of the gang at Cheers.
ckane123, by mrfan	Dec 6th, 2006 06:38:08 PM
I think the pilot is going to be on the Hawaii Five O set.
mrfan by ckane123	Dec 6th, 2006 07:46:07 PM
Thanks, I actually have read scholarly analyses of 5-0 that claim the whole show is McGarrett's drug-induced hallucinations from the pilot. Seriously.
mrfan, ckane123 by OtisSpofford	Dec 7th, 2006 01:52:58 PM
Thank God - I thought I was the only Five-O enthusiast here... Love the show, especially picking out 70's era character actors and later stars - also, did you ever notice in the later seasons that, whenever McGarrett pondered and then came up with a solution, he'd snap his fingers three times? And how Hawaii just seemed to be one island, rather than a chain? Bring 'em on!
5-0 Love by ckane123	Dec 7th, 2006 03:43:27 PM
And don't forget the local actors they cast who couldn't act worth a damn half the time! Or the never-moving hair of Jack Lord! Man, good times. Good times.
