And their release date is the same for Season 8 alone or the complete seasons box set.

 The UK Complete Set listed on Amazon.Co.Uk now has pictures. It looks very similar to the Japanese boxed set. It says there is a bonus disc which most likely contains the special features listed at Sony.Co.Uk which are probably the three last items as the first two appeared on Seasons 1 and 2 all ready:

  • Bloopers: Magic and Mishaps
  • Featurette: Magic Unveiled
  • A Walk Down Memory Lane with Erin Murphy
  • The Bewitching Guest Stars
  • Goofs and Gags
 

I don't know that would be enough for me to repurchase the whole series, though I'd definitely like to see those things. It is listed to be released on November 2, 2009.

The other thing is that in the description on the back, if you zoom in, it doesn't mention anything about Dick York having played Darrin

In regards to the US set, if Sony USA does in fact release a Complete Series set in time for Christmas, and let's say it's released the Tuesday before Christmas, than the announcement would be around October 12 because they usually announce 70 days before hand.

Even stranger, it says Agnes Moorehead plays Samantha's "nightmare mother-in-law."!!! ???

I have a feeling that the box-set will be out before Twenty Ten.  I would say it will be revealed in the next few weeks... Isn't Bernard Fox the only surviving adult cast member? What ever happened to the twins that play Adam?  I hope they include something on the Darrin Switch, A Bio on Liz, the Tabitha Series and maybe more.  I hope they don't include that mockery of that horrible movie (No offense to anyone) But that was the worst attempt to make a movie.  Liz would have been horrified.

Liz finally got her star in 2008

If Darrin truly loved his wife, he would have realized that they are somewhat off the wall and eccentric, and would have tried to chill out, calm down, and just go along for the ride. Unfortunately, Darrin is like most men of this era-just too interested in advancing at his job (writing and creating ads!) and grabbing for the brass ring of life, and so anything that interrupts or disrupts that is to be yelled at and screamed at. The real truth about this show is that Samantha married a boring silly mortal who is just stifling what she is as a person to fit into normal life. Meanwhile, her mom is enjoying all that the '60's had to offer (check out the episode where she says that she was enjoying what a sultan had in his bong!) and Sam is stuck with a big old boor of a husband more obsessed with how his next advertising account will turn out.

If I were Sam, I would take off from Dumbass (Darrin) grab the kids, and enjoy what her powers can give her, like her mom obviously does and her sister does as well. In fact, I'd end the series that way, too.
