where is L.A. Law?
I am surprised it has always been so quiet regarding this series on DVD besides the reunion movie from a few years back. I have been catching reruns on ALN here and there and would consider getting the first few years on DVD.
What's the holdup? Blair Underwood and Jimmy Smits are two of TV's most familiar and dependable character actors, plus the show pretty much opened the door and ushered in the modern lawyer program (ala Kelley shows, etc...). They could use Veronica Mars' fanbase for Harry Hamlin, etc... Plus it was a must-see Thursday staple from the peak days of Cosby all the way until the days where Seinfeld and Frasier ruled Thursday nights.
What's holding a DVD release back?

Re: where is L.A. Law?
1. It's Fox
2. It's pre-1990s.
That's the hold-up.

In other words, no chance. Fox sucks.

Re: where is L.A. Law?
It's also an intelligent, adult show. Everyone knows what that means. Unless your name is "Frasier".

Re: where is L.A. Law?
They're always going for that inexplicably-worshipped 18-34 demo, and anyone who was those ages when L.A. Law began is now between the ages of 40 and 56. Way outside the demos they want.

And Corbin Bernsen, who is in Psych now.
I would love to see this show on DVD. When it aired on NBC, I was outside the 18-34 demo.

Re: where is L.A. Law?
They'd be smart to release it while the people who watched it are still alive. But nobody ever accused the execs in charge of being too bright.

And it's not M*A*S*H, The Simpsons, or Buffy - the only three shows Fox cares about. |
