That's the Catch-22. The only way to be sure to get the entire series is to have it released at once, but the cost of buying an entire series at once is an issue for many people. But as you say there are sure to be some sales down the road..Originally Posted by Ronald Epstein
I love Gary Shandling. Perhaps my favorite comedian.
Trust me, would have been first in line to buy this series
except for one flaw -- its price.
Not to say this is overpriced -- I know there are four
seasons of material here. I also realize breaking the
set up into smaller, more moderately priced season
sets would have killed interest in the series.
I'm just going to wait for a price drop on this. Mark
my word, one day this set will be mine. Thanks for the
great review, Rich.
The average length is 26 minutes, but as has been noted they tend to varya bit. One thing which Shandling liked about doing the shows on Showtime was that he didn't have to bring in each show at the exact same length, since there were no commercials to worry about.Originally Posted by KevA
Can anybody confirm whether these are the original-length cuts of the episodes or not? One review site noted that the episodes are 19 or 20 minutes long on this DVD set, which doesn't sound quite right.
Great. Thanks for this note.Originally Posted by Lorrie606
I got to produce this box set and I can assure you that all the episodes are the originals. we worked really hard to find every singled piece of tape that existed for this show (and it wasn't easy).
