Wow. I loved that show. Will pick up this set for sure.
Too bad it's so light on extras.

Re: Ned and Stacey: S1 -- Sept. 20th
so, really tempted on this @ $25.87 @ Amazon, but I just don't do DVD's anymore really and the thought of swapping discs, etc...the horror. this isn't streaming on any of big services, correct?

As far as I can see, this isn't available on any streaming service, so the DVDs are the only way to watch it.

Re: Ned and Stacey: S1 -- Sept. 20th
Watched this a few weeks ago with the wife, who had never seen the show before, and for the most part it holds up. It's very much a 90s sitcom, but it has a dark, caustic, sarcastic streak too it that makes it stand out, and might've confused viewers at the time (I noticed a few bits and lines I felt were hysterical got barely a twitter from the audience).
The end credit bits that they do on a lot of the episodes, where they redo a scene from the show with a darker/stranger twist, shows that the show could've been a lot stranger than it was, although the season 2 Mr. Belvedere episode
The show does show is age in some of its sensibilities, such as an early Halloween episode where they play off a man in a female nurse uniform getting sexually harassed and assaulted for laughs. But it gets better as the show goes on.
Overall, I was happy to revisit the show, and my wife enjoyed it as a first-time viewer.
