    TV show sets that we are likely to see/might see on DVD (Region 1) in 2010

    probably likely: The Lucy Show - season 2 (I've heard TLS sold well, so I'm sure we'll see s2 sometime in 2010) Here's Lucy - season 3 (I heard MPI plans on finishing this fairly quick so we might get 5 or even 6 to complete the series next year) longshot list but never say never: Facts Of Life...

    Saturday Night Live-Season 5...Any News?

    I know it's a long shot, but I really hope season 6 does come out, just for two reasons: 1. I am a HUGE Prince fan, and the SNL appearance that season is one of the only existing pieces of footage besides music videos of him from the "Dirty Mind" period, which is regarded as one of his greatest...

    Mary Tyler Moore Show Complete Series Set Coming

    it all depends on the starting bid. Something like $15 or $20 will likely flop on there. But a starting bid of $5 or so should probably net you $10-20 once it closes. I hocked a lot of DVD's I no longer wanted awhile back and started the bids around $7-10 (truly depended on the demand for it)...

    Mary Tyler Moore Show Complete Series Set Coming

    I have one word and one word only for all the people who are "I don't want to buy these sets again, I can't afford it". EBAY!!!!!!!! I am mixed on this, I do think it's a middle finger to the fans who bought the sets loyally, but at the same time, I think it's wise for the companies to...

    Doris Day Show Complete Collection (Artwork enclosed)

    this show is a good example about why I don't buy the bigger companies excuses about "poor sales". The entire Doris Day series came out and we're talking a show that had been missing from reruns for 20-25 years and had very little DVD fanfare, but yet MPI saw fit to finish the series and add a...

    Disney Shows That would make a great Season releases

    never been a fan of any of these shows, but I am stunned Disney hasn't released an Even Stevens DVD yet to capitalize on Shia Le Beauf's post-Disney success

    Final 3 Seasons of "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" to be Released by Fox (NY Times)

    actually. Jeff Foxworthy came out on DVD at the height of "Blue Collar TV"'s popularity. It made sense to release it. And with All-American Girl, Margaret Cho has a very large cult following (I actually am seeing her in about three weeks, have second row seats too), mainly in the gay/lesbian and...

    2009 Tv on DVD Predictions

    at this point I barely care. There hasn't been hardly anything out in 2008 worth any great shakes to me, so I don't expect the pickings to get any better in 2009

    Final 3 Seasons of "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" to be Released by Fox (NY Times)

    I am sorry, but that sounds like a catch-22 if ever there was one. Paramount is actually releasing shows the rate they need to be coming out, as opposed to lazy asses like Fox and Sony and Universal who are sitting on further sets from shows that haven't seen a release in two, three, four or...

    Final 3 Seasons of "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" to be Released by Fox (NY Times)

    well, Oprah did have Valerie Bertinelli on her show a few months ago, didn't do a thing for One Day At A Time, LOL

    Just Shoot Me! Season Three... What's the Word?

    well, it would mean Sony having to release a future set of a show.... they can't possibly get off their lazy bones and do that when there's more important things to do, like releasing the first season of Seinfeld on a standalone

    Stalled series? There's Hope!

    I agree. Remember the article about MTM that pretty much stated abandonment because seasons 1-4 combined sold as much as one season of My Name Is Earl did? Of course a current sitcom which airs weekly and has commercials promoting it is going to outsell a classic that ended thirty years ago and...

    yea, it seems to be "damned if you do, damned if you don't" with most older series

    Facts of Life S4

    I would say the first season of FOL is the "trainwreck season". The last season wasn't so hot, but season eight, the first year with Beverly Ann, was one of the best IMO. Most people who hate season 8 were Mrs. Garrett fans who refused to accept a show without her (even tho Garrett was missing...

    WHERE is The Golden Palace???

    a couple of season 5 episodes have edits if I recall

    Facts of Life S4

    as someone who has about 85% of the episodes on DVD through boots of seasons 4-9, I personally think season 3 was the nadir besides the first and last seasons. Every single episode was "A very special episode" that year. I like the show better when it had more comedy to it, which was mainly...

    wasn't the ALF fiasco Paul Fusco's fault and not Lionsgate?

    Stalled series? There's Hope!

    I don't get Sony. With The Jeffersons, AITF, Facts Of Life, Flying Nun (since there's only one season left, can't they cash in on Sally Field's recent Emmy win?) and so many other shows in the vault that are stalled... why rehash the shows that have been completed? I wouldn't mind this if...

    Partridge Family Season 3 Coming At Last!

    wow... Sony.... actually... releasing.... a.... catalog.... show?!?!!??!

    Where are the UPN shows?? (ie-Special Unit 2, Jake 2.0,etc)??

    I am surprised with the popularity of Ugly Betty, that Jake 2.0 hasn't been released to cash in on Christopher Gorham's popularity. I know Sci-Fi started airing it in their daily block rotations after UB took off

    cosby show Season 8 DVD Edited

    out of curiousity. I know a complete series set is coming out this fall, are they going to "fix" season 1 or will it be the same syndicated versions?

    Gimme a Break! a contender for Shout! Factory??

    there's also a scene in season 3 where Nell is doing housework and dancing to "She's A Maniac"

    Stalled series? There's Hope!

    will people please stop bringing "morals" into this? It's offensive because you might not realize how many people who post here don't fit into the square box of what the 1950's represented. You want current "clean" shows, that's what all those Disney Channel shows like Hannah Montana is for. Me...

    Stalled series? There's Hope!

    but can you not say there is even one decent current show? If you honestly feel like Supertrain and Pink Lady And Jeff are better than the best shows on television now, you're no more openminded than the teenagers who think anything who predates Seinfeld and Friends (and I am sure to these kids...

    Stalled series? There's Hope!

    why repeat classic television when you have plenty of cheapo forgettable reality tv fluff to shove down and dumb down America's throat?

    Stalled series? There's Hope!

    I don't like cussing when it's overdone, but Curb Your Enthusiasm is such a hilarious show that it doesn't matter. The first two seasons of that show were brilliant. Yes, Larry swears like a sailor, but at the same time, he is the anti-hero of the show. He is the main character and protaginist...

    Stalled series? There's Hope!

    not trying to start a fight, but I probably wouldn't have gone off on that tangeant if I were you. You never know who might be on the boards and who you might be offending. I happen to be gay and hate the way the companies treat older shows. Maybe I don't have "traditional values" (I just am who...

    Stalled series? There's Hope!

    god Sony sucks. All the stalled shows like The Jeffersons, All In The Family, The Facts Of Life, Maude and so on that are in dire need of another set and they decide to rerelease Seinfeld season 1? Don't get me wrong, I love Seinfeld, but already have the complete series, there are so many...

    Stalled series? There's Hope!

    another great example is Universal's treatment of Kate And Allie. Before the set was even released, I called it out and predicted that the show would be abandoned (6 episodes, several which were syndicated edits, for $30, same price as many full sitcom seasons), yet the show has been doing a...

    Is classiv tv-dvd back?

    just barely. When Sony, Fox and Universal get back in the game, then maybe it'll be back
