TV under $15 Sale at Amazon (Studio 60, many others)

What drew me to the site was the price on Studio 60. Browsing around, I found the full list.

Some of the usual suspects there, though a good selection if you're in the market for any of these. Beware, though, a lot of these being sold for $14.99 are available as part of $19.99 two-packs at Target and Wal Mart.

Soem good stuff there, but alot of stuff that we have seen for cheaper elsewhere. Nothing really jumps out at me as a real bargain.

Do we know if the Black Donnellys and Studio 60 end ok? Just some closure is fine, I know a full wrap-uo is silly... I just don't want a "poof-is-gone"

I didn't get nearly enough Studio 60 to suit me... but yes, it does give some closure. Very much worth a purchase.

I picked up "Studio 60" a while back for $11.99 as a blind buy. It was well worth it. Decent closure even though it was a bit schmaltzy in the way it was done. I don't understand why this was cancelled as it was very good... every bit as good as 30 Rock even if it does tread similar ground (although done very differently).

The Mr. Show seasons for $9.99 are pretty good deals. I know I paid more for them when they first came out.

Re: Studio 60:

15 minutes into the first episode (of a friend's borrowed disc one of the set), and I was captivated by it. By the end of the first episode, I was checking DVDPriceSearch.com for the best price. A few minutes after that, Amazon had my order.

What is amazing is much of this is the same stuff that Big Lots had for $6... which lends one to think maybe the Warner Brothers stuff was not the Big Lots stuff but actually the Dark Knight...We'll never know...

They seem to be adding titles. I don't recall seeing Buck Rogers there yesterday.

Buck Rogers was there before. When I first stumbled upon the sale, it was the 2nd one on the first page. The first was an ER season, and the third was Studio 60.

Going to jump on Black Donnellys for $12.49. Really enjoyed that show before it was pulled. Also at BB for $14.99, but I'll wait a couple days and save a few bucks. Thanks for the info!

Scratch that: Seller "pieceofmindmedia" is selling the above for $6.97 and it's fulfilled by Amazon. I'm going to buy from them. Even better.

Except no one has found any blowout deals on TDK anywhere, so it obviously is not that....and besides, other than Dallas and ER, what other titles that happen to be in this Amazon sale were found at Big Lots? I don't see any of the Warner animated mega finds included....

When I looked, there was also Friends, Superman (George Reeves sets), Full House, etc.. Also very similar stuff at ColumbiaHouse including some of the Hanna Barbara sets .. But alas it really isn't that important.. I just am not sure where the stuff came from.. only that we all got some good deals from a store while it lasted.... and less in our pocketbooks...

I got both The Black Donnellys and Studio 60 the last time Amazon had them for $12. Both seemed to end without ending abruptly, with the Black Donnely's ending open to interpretation. From what I remember, its been a little while since I watched either, I felt satisfied with how they ended. Just angry that they werent given the chance that either show deserved. Studio 60, when it was airing, drew the obvious comparison to 30 Rock. i thought Studio 60 was infinitely better than 30 rock during that period. I really wish we were given more of it.
Both of these sets were mowed down by my dvd player over the course of 2 to 3 days.
I heartily recommend both shows.

Re: TV under $15 Sale at Amazon (Studio 60, many others)

If I weren't starting college next Thursday, I'd totally be buying Seasons 5, 6, 8, and 10 of ER. Ughhhh, I'm assuming there aren't any discount codes or anything to use? I guess I should cash out my whopping 45 Swag Bucks for the $5 Amazon GC now.

And count me in as another person who whole-heartedly recommends both Studio 60 and Black Donnellys.

There's a bunch of decent (over $15) price changes as well. American Gothic is only $19.99
