    Any news on Strangers with Candy or UCB?

    On a mildly brighter note for UCB fans, Comedy Central is airing a few episodes from seasons two and three this month. Maybe there is a little hope after all. At the very least, you can tape and enjoy more (possibly fleeting) UCB brilliance...

    Any news on Strangers with Candy or UCB?

    A few months ago on the UCB message board Matt Besser said that Comedy Central was currently deciding whether they would release season two. So that doesn't sound good. On some random SWC fansite they had Fall 2004 as a "tentative release date" for season three, but they didn't list any...

    Between-Release Nervousness

    I'm with you there. I'm *praying* for season two of Upright Citizens Brigade, but even if it isn't released, I'll still get plenty of enjoyment from season one. :)

    "The Critic" DVD petition

    When Fox got "The Critic" from ABC (I think), they scheduled the premier of the show on Sunday at 8:30, right after "The Simpsons." On the night in question was the episode where Jay Sherman visits Springfield for the film festival. Groening didn't approve of the idea for the episode but...

    The (in)sanity of collecting DVDs

    When I first got my DVD player (May 2001) I bought a ton of DVDs because I wanted to have a nice library of my favorite movies. I used to buy sight-unseen all the time - some I would really like, and some I wouldn't so I would just sell those on eBay and usually get almost all my money back...

    Where do you stand on the HTF 'hot topic' movies?

    2001: A Space Oddyssey - One of my favorite movies. Gladiator - Completely forgettable. Armageddon - Ditto. Miller's Crossing - Only Coen Bros. film I haven't seen, where is the DVD?!? The Phantom Menace - Caught the first 20 minutes on Network TV and I just had to change the channel...

    King of Comedy: cover and menu screen

    In DVDfile's (or maybe it was The Digital Bits) announcement of the release date and specs, they didn't mention anything about a commentary track, even though that's what Mr. Staddon said was holding the release up. Does anyone have any info on this?

    Criterion "Bottle Rocket" and "Royal Tennenbaums"

    Columbia House finally has Bottle Rocket available as an enrollment. It's a great deal for those who are tired of waiting on a Criterion version (which is looking less and less likely anyway).
