Feb 14th - I want Charges in Charge of me...
On February 14th we'll have Charles in Charge of us...
TVshowsondvd.com says season 1 is coming in a 3 disc set from UNI. Single sided discs, whew...
I use to watch the reruns on the WB, and I might get this during one of the annual sales, you know.
More info and a thumbnail pic of the artwork:

Haha. I'm so in. It gets painful how much they dumb down Buddy towards the end, but I'll see the show through.

Very cool to see this show coming to DVD! Its been airing on my local UPN station lately, but I can't really be bothered with syndication these days. I watch my classic TV on DVD. I'll be getting these sets for sure.
Its nice to see Universal releasing 80s sitcoms like "Charles in Charge" and "Gimmie a Break". Here's hoping "Out of this World" will be on DVD soon!

Large cover art is here:
http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/newsitem.cfm?NewsID=4552
Practically guaranteed to make you lie to the clerk! *
"It's for my niece. Yes, she's not right."
Or:
"Return of the King EE. Playboy College Co-Eds. Charles in Charge. King Kong. Waitaminute. Charles in Charge?"
"Oh, how did that get in there? No, no, it was my mistake, I'll buy it. BTW, I just remembered I don't need the others. So, just the Charles in Charge so you don't have to reshelve it, and I'm good."
* - And no, I don't really care what the clerk thinks. In any case, 9 times out of 10, they don't care what I'm buying so long as they can get me gone and go on break quickly.

Yah, but I love dumb guys. I work in a pharamaceutical company filled with scientists, eggheads and Bill Gates wannabees...I'd love to have just ONE dumb friend HAHA.
Hey, whatever happened to "Zapped?" That was the flick Scott Baio and Willie Ames made; haven't seen it in years and I don't believe it's ever been on dvd...

Don't forget, the show went through a change. It originally aired on CBS, then it was cancelled and came back in syndication with a different family (the Nicole Eggert years). From the cover art, it looks like the CBS season is getting released first.
Should I admit I watched it in both incarnations?

I did, too. I do prefer the Powells, and have seen them the most often since the CBS version is rarely shown in syndication. Gwendolyn, though, was a definite hottie (yeah, I know she showed up for a big event during the syndicated run).

I wonder if the first season will see significantly less sales than later seasons, due to the fact that most are more familiar with the Powell years. I know that for most shows, the first season can be used as a gauge to see how other season will fare, but I wonder if that will still be the same for CiC.

A guy on Street Smarts was just singing the theme song, and now I'm all jonesin' for some Charles. At least Feb. 14 isn't too terribly far away.

Some of you will be happy to know that Charles in Charge is on single-sided discs.
