CHiPs: Season 3, Starting to get concerned... (1 Viewer)

[Jeff*H]

Most, but not all, of the "Dukes" audience back in the late 70s/early 80s were kids like I was, and the show was a ratings powerhouse for most of its run. And those kids are now adults with income to spend, and what better way than to relive a beloved favorite as a kid, and share it with a new generation of kids. Also, it did have a very big following in the South and still does. When TNN ran it years ago, it became a ratings juggernaut all over again for a new generation of kids. All reasons why the DVDs sold very well for WB.

I watched ChiPs as a kid too, but not with the ferocious devotion that I had with Dukes. Those motorcycles were OK, but nothing beat the General Lee.

Maybe someone should ask about it on the upcoming Warner Animation and TV chat...

 

I'm wondering the same thing about the fourth season of mannix

I was lucky enough to be able to ask the WB about CHiPs way back when during one of the HTF chats. I will make sure to do so once again, if I manage to get in to ask a question.

i attended the WB chat last night and it is my understanding from the questions/answers that WB is not planning anymore seasons of CHiPs rate now. So, i think this is another stall series. I can see maybe this being picked up in a couple of years or when consumer spending pick ups again.

""I'm still waiting for Season 3 to come out!!!!!!!! Will we get it this year?? This has been a long wait. After the first two sets came out a year apart, I thought maybe we'd see that continue. With the WHV Chat in April I hope to find out what's going on with the stall."

I should play the lottery. Sometimes I hate being right

I read the post on TV Shows on DVD and it's listed as being "No Plans at This time." This means that no Season 3 is coming anytime soon.

I agree. Thank goodness for "alternate" dvds. I sure hope that there is a future release of this great show all seasons from WB.

Thanks, Adam. However, with more retailers eliminating their in-store DVD inventories in favor for Blu-ray, I think studios like Warner Brothers are starting to verge away from DVD.
