I know that SCTV was a great show, but $59.99 for 9 episodes seems a bit steep...

For the second week in a row, the wallet gets a well-deserved rest.

Thanks for the prices, though!

I'm surprised Bambi isn't in the Target ad. I'd like to see some prices on that one. Some great prices at Target for the $9.99 live-action Disney films.

that's because of the music royalties or rights. w/o the music it would be a lot cheaper. this is one of the reasons the Wonder Years seasons may not ever be released on dvd.

to OP: thanks for the prices!

Isn't that in line with the other sets?

the ppl at CAG.com don't list items that are low price or hot price so Target probably has it for $15.99. I'm hoping that CC has it for $14.99 then I can PM it at Toys R Us.

Bambi is $15.99 at Best Buy with the free plush.

At Best Buy, the Exorcist The Beginning by itself is $17.99...I got these prices from BestBuy.com

Also of note, when posting prices, the ppl at CAG.com will color-coordinate the prices so that all $14.99 titles will be one color (e.g. red), all $15.99 titles will be another, etc. The OP here just cuts & pastes which doesn't transfer over that color coordination, therefore making the prices confusing sometimes (the price is listed at the top with the titles underneath it)

Thank you to the OP, but it would be much much much easier to read if you could just put a space in between the prices.

E.g. Best Buy
$??.??
Bambi w/ free Best Buy exclusive Thumper plush toy

$59.99
SCTV V3:9eps

$29.99
Lost in Space S3:15eps
Wonder Woman S2:22eps

$28.99

They could just do what Married With Children did and change the music (they actually made it sound like an awesome new feature: NEW OPENING THEME SONG!)

It isn't often that a Criterion release gets ad space - quite surprising.

No they didn't.. it's just simply stated on the box without any indication of excitement (the ! and eXXXtreme caps lock text was added by you) and it does not list it as any kind of special feature. See for yourself:

Thanks for the early ads. Doesn't look like I'll be picking anything up from all of the above, though. :P

Oh my mistake.

I guess it would help if the prices were next to the titles. Hey I won't complain I'm grateful for the early prices.

Wonder if BB.com will screw up again and give some of us another shot at the Criterion?

Thanks for the prices. It's a little hard to read, but no biggie for me.
