well, I don't think anybody expects Warner to abandon it with one season left. My guess would be they'll try to get the last season out in time for Christmas, and I wouldn't be too surprised if they come up with a big DOH box set too, because this has to be their "Friends" in terms of hour long shows
I'm anxious as a longtime fan of this show to finally complete the DVD series. Several years ago I was wondering if I would ever have the DUKES on DVD, so it has been a real treat, and Warner has done a tremendous job on the series, both in quality care and in swift release dates.
I was actually hoping for Season 7 by the end of the summer, but it doesn't look like that is happening. I do hope for a fall release, before Christmas, but I'll take it whenever, of course.
I'll champion the idea of a box set---I would use it as a spare copy to my original purchases, but would hope for extras not previously included on the original season sets. And a booklet would be nice, too!
My only concerns about the DUKES series on DVD were some of the things I felt they could have expanded on when it came to bonus features, even though what they gave us was nice and a real treat, and a lot more than other series ever get...
How about commentaries by "Coy" and "Vance", Byron Cherry and Christopher Meyer?
The episodes of the spinoff ENOS, where Uncle Jesse, Daisy and Rosco all make guest appearances? That would have been enough to satisfy my desire to see some ENOS episodes on DVD.
Blooper reels and deleted scenes? I believe they exist as bloopers/outtakes were once shown on one of those Dick Clark shows in the '80s, I'm fairly certain.
All in all, however, a tremendous thanks to Warner for making this fan's wish to have these shows on DVD a reality. Great nostalgia from my childhood!
I second the Enos set. It would be perfect if the last Season set was jammed full of those just to get them out of the way. I'm sure fans would go for it, especially if they have the rest of them (even the dreaded Coy and Vance set).
I'm hoping we'll see the reunion movies included with S7. The crossover ENOS episodes would also be nice because I'm wondering if we'll ever see the complete ENOS series released.
Not only that but Gord made a mistake on the News Article. He mentions 17 Episodes early in the article and then at the end of the article makes a remark about 22 episodes for the set.
If I were a new visitor I'd be confused by that story ... ehehe ...
yeah, he just emailed it to me after I sent him an email ... wasn't aware that it was an official press release. you'd think that Warner would proof read their own press releases.
