    Hades froze over......Wonder Years!

    As I posted on the TVShowsOnDVD Facebook page, in the comments for the link to today's story/press release, StarVista/Time-Life directly informed me about how they handled the few songs which did not clear: "NO scenes were cut; and in each case we replaced the music with similar music, most of...

    1966 Batman DVD Coming! See Post 649

    As a kid who watched every episode (or I suppose it was) of Addams Family before first catching Batman...I loved, loved, LOVED Astin as Gomez. Did then, do now. But when I first saw him as The Riddler, little kid me was like, "Whyyyyyyyyyy??????....." I'm looking forward in November to seeing it...

    1966 Batman DVD Coming! See Post 649

    "Now and Again" (not to be confused with "Once and Again") came out of that top ten list at the exact same time as those did, when we added "complete series" release listings for all three of these shows. I think that was the biggest change in the list at once time, ever. The next-closest big...

    Sorry for being so late to reply to this, Mike...I've had a swamped week. My boy isn't 5 any more...he's about to start 11th grade next Monday, and I've been splitting time between work and getting him ready for back-to-school! :DI am so very glad you're up and around these days, and well...

    Batman The Complete TV Series Limited Edition (11/11)(Blu-ray)(DVD) Available for Preorder

    I'll just say that I copied and pasted the disc-by-disc breakdowns, precisely as shown, straight from Warner's password-protected B2B site. If there is a factual error, it's on the studio's side. I was slow and careful, painstakingly making sure that I didn't make any mistakes when putting my...

    Hades froze over......Wonder Years!

    Exclusive info from your friends at TVShowsOnDVD.com: Time Life informs us, "We're working on a music-focused press release now that will list all the songs cleared. We've said that over 95% of the songs are cleared; I actually think the number is higher but we're doing a final count now. And...

    WKRP...Complete Series Coming Soon! (See Post #109)

    I wonder if sometimes this is why music rights owners (and these are not always the artists, by the way!) will balk at agreeing to a license. If the terms of the agreement are very vague ("all possible uses for all time" is pretty vague wording, you must admit), then perhaps that is why they...

    Mike Frezon Status Report

    As usual, I'm a few days late (and a few dollars short), but WELCOME HOME, MIKE! I'm glad to see my Round-Up successor back at home and in-saddle, and doing well enough to post on HTF once again. I'm VERY glad for you, buddy. Keep getting better and better, okay?

    Hades froze over......Wonder Years!

    Ron1973, and Robert, thanks for understanding about not copying the entire story here. Here's a working link to the story at our site.As far as pricing goes, especially where the music clearances come into play with that and whether any large numbers of songs might have to be missed (i.e., the...

    Sign the card! The Official "GET WELL SOON" thread for Mike Frezon!

    I. Feel. SOOOOO. Awful!!!Those of you who know my name, know that I was the originator of the Weekly Roundup, and turned it over to Mike to do when my work as the "news guy" at TVShowsOnDVD began keeping me busy enough to prevent me from spending time doing the research necessary to produce the...

    CBS Press Release: The Beverly Hillbillies Season 4

    As the news guy for the site, I have to admit that doing this, and ONLY this, is a terrible way to find out what TV-DVDs you want to buy. If you overlook a news item for something you want, you never know it came out (or is coming out). I'm constantly both amused and frustrated by readers who...

    CBS Press Release: Petticoat Junction Season 3

    That's unfortunate, because at TVShowsOnDVD.com we NEVER cover items which are available only at one brick-and-mortar retailer, at the expense of all the others. If this title becomes available for general release later on, then we will cover it.

    By the way, we abbreviate ourselves as "TSoD". To us, the "V" is redundant since the "T" signifies it. :D

    Any news on a Carol Burnett Show DVD?

    Thank you for that, Scott. Andy, there's no doubt that my contact at Time Life was being intentionally vague, simply because things haven't been finalized yet. You can't be sure of what a finished item will be, until it's finished. :D In any case, there is more news today, with my contact at TL...

    Any news on a Carol Burnett Show DVD?

    Andy, you're asking me to dissect a hurried phone call made yesterday (I've slept since then) with a person who was stressed because he didn't want to me late for a plane. I didn't have time to write down exact words, and I don't want to lie to you and say he said something he might not have...

    Any news on a Carol Burnett Show DVD?

    Please see the update I added to the bottom of my TVShowsOnDVD story later in the day; TL tells me that there will be new-to-DVD content on their sets, material not seen on the previous CH or GR discs. I agree that we'll never see the entire run of this show due to all the rights issues (and...

    Falcon Crest: The Complete 3rd Season is Coming

    Tom, you're welcome for my news post; glad it helped. I only swung by here to make sure you had seen what I posted. Much to my dismay (and Ron's), I hardly have time to hang out at HTF these days :( . So rather than sending PMs to each other via the HTF system, you should just visit...

    Falcon Crest: The Complete 3rd Season is Coming

    Tom, thanks for this. Because of your post, I spoke to my contact at the Warner Archive. Here's the result: http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/news/Falcon-Crest-Season-3/15686 Bottom line: yes, they're working on it. No, "early 2012" isn't set in stone. What about Knots Landing? Dunno, just...

    BIONIC WOMAN (original series) COMING TO DVD (Kenneth johnson announces)

    More likely scenario, IMHO: timing it so that TBW-S3 will come out a certain amount of time after S2 (not as long a wait as between S1 and S2), and then after roughly the same amount of time passes then SMDM can hit retail just in time for Christmas. In other words, it's my guess we'll see...

    The Answer Is...Blu-ray!

    Just to give a possible explanation: I think the drop-off in new comments might be because you haven't been posting too much here yourself (nothing since September), so we collectively have thought that you probably got what you wanted out of the discussion, and that you might have moved on.
