I actually read it the same way as Tony, but if that's the case, it should actually be 'sprinting into his FIFTH decade.' 2009 should have marked the end of his 4th decade.
I live in the U.S., and I've bought a TON of Region 2 British comedy, due to the fact that they were never available here in the States. Many of them, however have since become available here, but I didn't know if they ever would. Some of the ones I imported are: League of Gentlemen (all 3...
Completely agreed - that was actually the point I was trying to make. I was just referring to the fact that even after we've established what we're talking about and cleared up the misunderstanding, there was still one very determined holdout...
I've DEFINITELY always heard the term "flipper" in reference to a double sided disc. You have to "flip" the disc to get to the other side is the way that I assumed it was being used. I've NEVER heard it to refer to the hinged, second tray in a dvd case. Then again, I think this has turned into...
For me, off the top of my head (and this DOES NOT include series that I'm current on, but only ones that are available complete and I have them):
Get Smart
Monty Python
League of Gentlemen
Arrested Development
Police Squad
Dead Like Me
Friends
Seinfeld
Six Feet Under
Da Ali G...
Yeah, I actually caught it not too long ago on AMC and it definitely wasn't too good, but I'm just one of those completists who would probably buy it if it was cheap enough. Thanks for the info and the link Harry!
Does anyone know if the tv movie starring Michael Chiklis as Curly from 2000 has ever been released or is ever being planned for release? I figure with the chronological collections doing so well and the Farrelly brothers movie in the works, we might see something on it. I did some research but...
There is at least one (maybe two) episodes of the great british sitcom "One Foot In The Grave" that consist entirely of just the main character, Victor, doing a monologue for the whole episode. Unfortunately, I can't remember which episode(s), or if they can be found on the current Region 1...
No prob! Yeah, the skull looks really cool on your shelf (especially next to the mausoleum of the first season), but I had to return it twice in order to get a set without damaged discs. And, I pretty much never return anything!
Here's one that I don't believe has been mentioned: Masters Of Horror, Season 2 - I love the show, and I can even get behind the concept of the packaging (a horror show in a skull shaped box - it almost creates itself). But, when you open it up, the discs are just standing upright, loose...
Great review, thanks Matt! I definitely thought this is one of the stronger seasons they've had so far. Some of my favorite episodes would probably have to be: With Apologies to Jesse Jackson, Cartman Sucks, Snuke, Imagination Land (of course), and my personal favorite - Le Petite...
Count me as another person who would be EXTREMELY excited if this turns out to be true. Both a full set or season sets would be a release date purchase for me.
I'm sure it's too late, but my favorite has always been from Police Squad: "I'm sorry ma'am. We would have been here sooner, but your husband wasn't dead yet."
So true, my friend, so true... I always march right in the store ready to make the scene (especially something like this, where technically, I AM right), but end up chickening out when I get up there. I'm such a non-confrontationalist. Yep, that's probably a word - in fact, you might say I'm...
Even on manufacturer's coupons? It doesn't seem that they would be allowed to do that. I know that I've used manufacturer's coupons on sale items at Best Buy. It's probably the fact that this one makes it SO cheap that they even notice and wonder if they shouldn't put their foot down. Plus...
