    Price of Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck 2010 Releases

    I just checked both Amazon.com and Amazon.ca. The US version of Amazon has the price for a single disc Bugs Bunny Hare Extraordinaire August 2010 release at $17.49 plus tax while Amazon.ca has it selling for a $22 and change. Don't you think, in comparison to the Golden Collections which...

    Will Battlestar's Ending Dissuade You From Buying the Complete Series?

    I loved Battlestar Galactica (re-boot series) and couldn't wait to own the series on DVD when it would eventually come out as a "complete series" offering. But the ending to the epic series seems to be dissuading me from purchasing the series. I'd love to re-watch all episodes only if I liked...

    Price of New TV on DVD

    I know most of you on this thread are probably going to blast me for this but I actually cancelled my order with Amazon for Looney Tunes Golden Collection Volume 6. Not because I don't love the old Warner Bros. cartoon but because of the price of the unit. Amazon is selling it up here in Canada...

    Sick and Tired about Pan & Scan

    When will the studios STOP "Modifying the film from its original aspect ratio". I'm still walking into a Blockbuster to find to my horror films in Full Screen!?!?

    Warner Picks Up Peanuts

    Great news about remastering the Peanuts animated shows. The question I have is why is it a must (other than making money) that these "episodes" be released separately? Why not package them like a volume collection instead of each disc having one story..... Thoughts?

    Trivia Question - How Many Movies?

    Could someone help me. I'm wondering how many films have been released in the U.S. since 1930 (the year most films were "talkies"). I figure that if there are 400 films on average released per year and since there have been 77 years that have gone by, I figure that there have been almost 31,000...

    Is Commercial Television Dying?

    The question relates to the fact that I'm having a difficult time in watching new shows broadcasted once a week with commercials. I just ran out and bought Heroes on DVD because I heard so many good things about it. I refrained from watching the show as originally broadcasted for reasons...

    Defective Discs

    I'm sure most people on this forum have purchased tons of season sets of their favorite shows. And I'm sure that there are some that after a few years have yet to get around opening a set and watching the episodes because there's so much to watch and so little time. I had purchased Justice...

    Kung Fu Aspect Ratio Issue

    I want to pick up the season sets of Kung Fu but I'm afraid of what I'll get because the studio [or whoever] tampered with the aspect ratio of the original television broadcast. Apparently, they cropped the top and bottom to create the illusion of widescreen [ie. formatting to fit your...

    Cost to Produce Season Sets

    Question for all interested - how much is the average cost of a DVD Season Set for a studio? Remember, these shows have already been produced and filmed and sitting in a vault somewhere. I know there's a cost of producing the DVDs themselves and for extras, remastering and for licensing, etc...

    The 2nd coming of Christ movie?

    Could someone help me - there was a movie I remember from my youth about the 2nd coming of Christ - I need the title. It must've been a 60's or 70's movie (not sure if it was a made-for-tv movie). It was about people in today's era hearing on their radios and television of a man performing...

    Classic Christmas Cartoons

    It's that wonderful time of year once again - Christmas. And every year, I hope that someone? would release two classic Christmas specials but it never happens.

    All in the Family S6 - Will Sony pull a Fox?

    I've been collecting the incredible All in the Family [in of my all time top 10 sitcoms] and now TVShowsOnDVD.com report that Season 6 will be coming out in the early new year.

    Inspector Cartoons - DVDs when?

    There are 34 incredible cartoons of Inspector Cluseau which I'm dying to get on DVD. Have they been released and if no, any idea when these gems would be released? Any news? In my opinion, these were funnier than the Pink Panther toons but not as witty. My favorite "Don't say si, say oui"...

    Does anyone know the order in which Batman the Animated Series should be watched? I tried following production order (as per the order on the DVD) but that doesn't work. I tried the order of "first aired" and Robin shows up out of nowhere in Fear of Victory. Help!!! Thanks Joe

    MASH Complete Series Extras

    I'm completely peeved at Fox for doing this to all those that bought the season sets. How difficult would it have been for them to throw in the extra discs in Season 11? We already paid full price for all the seasons before this. Joe
