North and South on DVD!?! (1 Viewer)

[John Haghighi]

Anyone know if there is any plan for this and who owns the rights for DVD? I've had many friends getting into DVDs now asking about it. I would also love to see this on DVD.

Warner owns this (and Book II, and Book III: Heaven & Hell).

It's not on DVD, it's not on the schedule, and to my knowledge it's not in-the-pipeline, either.

That is too bad! I don't know what the Numbers are from "Roots", but I'm hoping Paramount's "Shogun" sells like hotcakes so WB sees that mini-series do sell.

WB knows that mini-series sell. They have The Thorn Birds coming soon, and they've done others as well. I think you'll see N&S down-the-road...maybe when the right marketing tie-in presents itself.

I'm getting pretty tired of every DVD having to have a "perfect" marketing tie-in. How many years & how many changes in corporate mangement must we go thru until someone decides what this unknown marketing tie-in is? IMO must every title has its own fan base. And if you go looking for this perfect "marketing tie-in" you could be looking forever. Something either sells or it does not. OK my "unreasonable" rant is over.
