Announcing MAUDE : The Complete First Season DVD - Page 2

Lost in this MAUDE frenzy is that MARY HARTMAN is also being released (per Davis DVD). That was one bizarre show and may hold up better than the dated Maude series although it will definitely be a niche product.

Wow, I'm not too sure how Mary hartman would Hold up, But I did enjoy it when I originally watched it.

I really like the cover!

out of curiousity, how will a company as notoriously slow (I mean, we're just getting All In The Family season 6 and Mad About You season 1 after five years) live up to the heat of a show like Mary Hartman which will end up meriting at least 10 DVD volumes.

Thirteen, actually.

It's not bad. I wish they'd used some words from the theme song at the bottom. Then have "And then there's Maude!" and "Right on Maude!" in slightly larger letters. That's just me.....

well the artwork is not final, so you may get your wish

Not that I'm quibbling about the artwork, but I always hoped that it might be that shot of her opening her front door in the opening credits - where she is wearing that body-length vest thing that she made popular with mature women of the 70s.

Darn it, I'd better! And Maude was never her own Brady Bunch!

No, I like the graphic. Although.....

That's a great idea! The one with the flowing long sleeves. That's our Maude!

Is anyone else as concerned as I am about the listed runtime? It says all 22 episodes, but then says 460 minutes!!! That would only be about 21 minutes per episode!!! I have all of them taped from TVLand, and they were 22 minutes on there.... The uncut episodes should in fact be around 26 minutes.... SO... my question is... is 460 minutes the official runtime from the press release/Sony? Or ????????

I REALLY hope they are uncut episodes!! I've been waiting for this for years, especially to see the extra 4 minutes per episode that has not seen the light of day since the 70s....

I know that other sets like this (All In The Family, Jeffersons) have all been uncut, right? So I'm sure MAUDE would be too, but this runtime of 460 minutes scares me!!

Can anyone confirm anything?????

That's probably a misprint, as happened with the press release on The Facts of Life S1/S2. They probably meant 560, which divided by 22 equals 25.something.
