Any hope for Season 2 of Maude?

More Maude would be nice. But being a Sony show who knows when or if we'll ever see another season of it or quite a few other of their unfinished shows.

Re: Announcing MAUDE : The Complete First Season DVD


By my estimation it will come out sometime in 2011.

My Season 1 is still in the plastic. But not for long. Luckily I have All in the Family Season 6 still wrapped in plastic too. ...and Mary Hartman Mary Hartman...and seasons 4-6 Good Times, still wrapped in plastic. I'm in it for the long haul, but I will get totally impatient one day.

Re: Announcing MAUDE : The Complete First Season DVD


I think it is really a shame they stopped at Season 1. This was a great series and ground-breaking, and my favorite episodes were yet to come with the new house-keeper Mrs. Nagatuck from Ireland, who played one of the maids in Mary Poppins. I don't think Sony is going to continue the series, it's been a year now since the 1st season.

The studios are all talking about the yearly declining sales of dvd now for the last 2 years, all they have to do is release more content that people want. I know mastering and pressing costs money, but I can't believe this series didn't sell fairly well, sure it was no Star Trek but I am sure it was not on the bottom of the list either. Darn it anyway! I really want the entire series.

Re: Announcing MAUDE : The Complete First Season DVD


There could be a number of reasons why it hasn't come out. One is restructuring at SPHE, another is that Blu-Ray could have taken up resources that may have otherwise gone towards TV shows.

Re: Announcing MAUDE : The Complete First Season DVD


The fact that a second release hasn't come out doesn't mean much. It takes forever between AITF sets. And Maude is likely even less of a priority. Plus I doubt that it sold well. It's not a brand-new show, it's smart, funny & intelligent. Therefore it's dead in the water. How many wonderful, mature shows have come out and not sold well ? A lot of them.

I am wondering if it is stalled or that was it....because I read a story in Variety Daily magazine and they talked about the studios releasing tv dvd, and one quoted comment from Sony was that many of these shows only need the first season and that seems to make fans happy enough. I couldn't believe what I was reading, but then again, I could believe it.
