I can't wait for that new show Convinction to come out on DVD! Any word on a release? I know the first episode hasn't aired, but there must be a date!

i don't know if any of you are familiar with the adult swim cartoon, mission hill, but those dvds took FOREVER to come out, because of soundtrack. i am a die-hard fan, and can quote episodes, and it's not the same without the music.
alot of the jokes revolve around the music.

Depends on the show, and which company/studio is producing it. If it's Warner Brothers, Universal or Sony, these studios already have music divisons (labels) - so it's not as hard to license the songs or make deals to. The other studios - like Fox, per se, don't - so it costs them more to liscense the music.
Also, it depends on what deals were made going into it. Yes, these days now that TV on DVD has become so popular - most show producers license the music not only for brodcast, but also for the DVD releases. In the past, the idea of TV shows ever being released on DVD didn't even cross anyone's mind - so they only optioned the music for broadcast purposes - and hence why it cost so much to license the music (again) for a completely different purpose.

I'm with Rocketdog. The producers of any show in production now must have the brains to lock up all uses of the musoc clearances since TV on DVD is such a cash cow. It is those old shows where the clearances weren't thought about that are a problem.

Is it surprising that someone asks about this DVD before the season is over? Didn't they announce Desperate Housewives and LOST either right as the season ended or a bit before? They turn these over fast now...
I wonder if they will market them together. (Office and Earl) I'd like to have them both.

From Wikipedia's My Name Is Earl entry:
Creator/show runner Garcia commented on DVD release contents and plans at a February 2006 event held by the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences[2]. It will be released before the second season premieres. Garcia expects to include deleted scenes, cast and crew commentary track, selections from the season's two-hour gag reel, and a "kind of mini-episode" just for the DVD.

I'd like to see the majority of the two hours as well, but they could be including multiple takes in the time. I like gag reels but draw the line at an actor flubbing a line for 15 straight takes. It's funny 2 maybe 3 times in a row, then it wears thin, unless there is cursing of course.
