The Golden Girls on DVD (1 Viewer)

Hmmm...maybe Disney does own them.

So there you go then... no DVD release until either the repeats start doing worse or Lifetime loses the rights to the Golden Girls. :frowning:

Well that's pure speculation isn't it.
Until we hear otherwise, I'll believe reindeer know how to fly

Hey Andy once your petition hitd 10,000 signatures someone should print that out and send it to Disney or Buena Vista or whoever, maybe it would help a little...?

I thought that TV on DVD has had negligible negative impact on syndication. I was under the impression that syndication continues to do as well as it always had. No?

If they can look at a Seinfeld release for later this year (considering the syndication license fees), surely Golden Girls on Lifetime can handle the DVD competition.

 

[MichaelFA]

Well I do know that I personally would not watch Golden Girls episodes on TV that I had on DVD because Lifetime cuts so much out of it, and also doesn't use the original openings except in a couple episodes...

Another point I thought of was that if they did the DVds now, they would be able to have special features done by Betty White, Rue McClanahan, and (if she agrred to, but I doubt she would) Bea Arthur. I'd love to hear a couple cast sommentaries on some of the classic episodes! They only have a few years left where they'd be able to do these!
