I watched the two hour E! True Hollywood Story on AITF this morning and I got to thinking about future DVD releases of this show. We've already got seasons 1-4 on DVD. We still need DVD releases of seasons 5-9. In September 1979 the name of the show was changed to "Archie Bunker's Place." Some people consider ABP to be a different show than AITF, but I maintain it's the same show with a different name, a different setting, and some new characters. If ABP was a spin-off it would have happened while AITF was still on the air, but it didn't. AITF morphed into ABP. Also, there wasn't a lot of "down time" between AITF and ABP. Just the summer (1979). AITF ended in the Spring of '79. ABP was on by September '79. Just like any regular season. Anyway, my point is that if Sony Pictures Home Entertainment eventually releases all 9 seasons of AITF on DVD, do you think they'll continue by releasing ABP on DVD? Also, for those of you buying the season sets - How many seasons are you going to buy? Myself? I'd like to have all 13 years/seasons on DVD. All the way up to the April 4, 1983 series finale. Here are the remaining episodes to be released on DVD.
