Does anyone know why A Different World Season 2 was not available on it's 7/11 release date? I pre-ordered it from DDD and called to inquire when it was still not shipped on 7/11. I was told that it was backordered. I thought it was a problem unique to DDD. But I checked Amazon.Com, and Buy.Com all of which show the 7/11 release date, but say it will take 2-4 weeks to ship. DDD gave me an estimated ship date of 9/12!
In my two years of following TV on DVD releases, I've seen release dates delayed or moved forward, but I've never encountered a show not being available on a confirmed studio release date. I also thought it was odd when it was not available for sale on 7/11 at any of the brick and mortar stores. I was S1 at Target, Walmart & Best Buy. Now I suppose I know why.
I know it was originally moved from a 5/30 release date to the 7/11 one, but I've not been able to find news anywhere on the net as to why it wasn't available on 7/11 and is on back order with the major e-tailers.
Any insights as to what transpired would be appreciated.
