    Back To You

    Any comments on the opening episode of this yet? It reminded me a lot of The Mary Tyler Moore Show, especially over the first 20 minutes, although with too many Ted Baxters and not enough Lou Grants. I'm also finding it hard to see Kelsey Grammer as anyone other than Frasier, but he...

    What's next for the Fox chop?

    With the apparent demise of Bob Newhart, Mary Tyler Moore and even King of the Hill from the Fox release schedule, are there any other shows which are in danger of facing the chop? When I visited LA last year, I looked in Amoeba Music on Sunset, and there were a LOT of remaindered copies of...

    Which shows have you abandoned?

    OK, so we all have our series that we intend to collect until completion, given the chance, but are there any that you have started buying, but already abandoned (even before the studio has)? Mine are: King Of The Hill: I remembered watching some of it on TV and bought season 1 because it was...

    Movies in mono on DVD

    Got my copy of the movie 'Just Between Friends' on DVD through the post today. I was somewhat disappointed to find that, despite PlayUSA stating that it is stereo, the soundtrack is only mono. For a film made in 1986?? Surely there must have been at least a stereo soundtrack when it was shown in...
