With all the TV shows trying to make it out to DVD, it really is great to see that Shout! will be releasing what looks like another quality volume of "You Bet Your Life" in under two weeks from now. From reading past threads and checking out listings from Amazon, this one will have more great extras which will be in the same vein as "-the lost episodes". For a show of this type, (and that is odd saying that since its such a unique hybrid of game/talk show ) that I'm wondering if this show would sell enough in future volumes if extras were to "run dry" and still get the great clean up that these two volumes are getting?
Shows like the "Honeymooners" came out with no extras, but is still shown on TV stations and has a good fan base. "I Love Lucy" has a great fan base and gets lots of extras (but would sell even with no extras), but it's the shows like "Jack Benny" that is rarely on stations anymore, same goes for "You Bet Your Life". Believe me when I say I'm very thankful that "YBYL" is going to have two quality volumes with great extras, but even if extras get lean I hope that we might be treated to future volumes with the same quality to it.
