    That's great news, but kind of odd as I thought all those Color Honeymooners DVDs had gone out of print. But I'll definitely pick this up.

    Is this the Honeymooners Christmas special that they already released, or the missing one with Gale Gordon?

    They even brought back "This Is It," albeit in re-edited form.

    I already have the first ("public domain") incomplete set released by Image Entertainment, and the later "official" set. If the price is right, I might spring for the new one for the bonus CD of the album, which aside from a stray song or two on a various artists comp, I don't think has ever...

    I have suspected as much, but if true, that's a real shame. I loved that show.

    Well, you'd have to ask the author, but (assuming I am remembering this correctly) I guess it was written "for hire" for use in a DVD project released by the company (Genius Entertainment IIRC).

    I believe Andy Mangels wrote something back in the day when the "Archie's Funhouse" set came out, that he had written a booklet explaining about its contents -- it was a complicated release, combining elements of "Archie's Funhouse" and "The Archie Comedy Hour," the latter of which apparently...

    "Twinkles" best I can tell, was first shown on "King Leonardo And His Short Subjects," but also appeared on "Rocky And His Friends." It was included in the 15-minute syndicated version of "The King And Odie" in the 1960s, but not the 1980s half-hour syndicated version. Some years back I got...

    It's a little more complicated than that. Each "episode" was made up of several segments -- cartoons, intros, bumpers, etc., all of which were mixed and matched over the years. The original shows don't match the later syndicated shows, and neither matches the DVD versions. For instance, Dudley...

    I note the same tune used on the individual R&B cartoons for the NBC airings was redubbed onto the Seasons 1 and 2 show openings for DVD. I am under the impression all those changes were made for an internationally distributed (outside the U.S.) version of the show in the late 1990s. One of the...

    They're gonna start that again...cue the confusing multiple versions of the same stuff. It's great that these are being released though!

    I'd love to see it, but didn't someone post something some time ago about some kind of rights issues? This seems kind of unlikely, given that most episodes were half new material and half taken up with a rerun of "Pebbles And Bamm-Bamm," which has already been released. There was talk...
