Bosom Buddies?
Tom Hanks is such a huge Hollywood icon, I'm surprised this series isn't out on DVD yet. In fact, I've never even heard it mentioned for possible release. Anyone know if and when it could be available?

That description pretty much nails it!
This was a great sitcom with a wonderful cast, and one of my favs - let's hope that it eventually shows up!

YES!
In the past few weeks several of my "most wanted" movies were announced (The Gang's All Here, Never Give A Sucker an Even Break, Apartment Zero and now this!
I'm a happy camper. (No pun intended )

I don't care if Peter Scolari and Telma Hopkins team up to sing the theme- I'm just glad it's finally coming out on DVD.
I so look forward to revisiting that show.

This is still one of my favorite sitcoms and I have my fingers crossed that nothing gets screwed up, considering how ridiculous the music liscensing issue has gotten. It's been almost 25 years since I've seen these episodes without syndication cuts, and I'm crossing my fingers for no music-related cuts.

This kind of thing should be democratic. Paramount should post on their website how much the set would cost if they put money up for the Billy Joel song and how much it would be without (and warn us what would replace it) and let the fans vote. Hell, it's OUR money that's going into this thing in the end when we buy it.
And, of course, I could go into my usual rant about the music industry and the RIAA and all that but what's the point anymore?
And I used to watch it when it was first run and in syndication...I never recall any other theme than the Billy Joel song. WTF are they talking about what was "intended" to be the theme?
