"The Bill Cosby Show"

The one where he played the high school gym coach. Low key and very down to earth.

Put me down for the following TV shows 'not likely to be on DVD' - BUT I WISH THEY DID :

LOGAN'S RUN - 1977
http://imdb.com/title/tt0075527/

Short lived TV show from the film.

THE FANTASTIC JOURNEY - 1977
http://imdb.com/title/tt0075503/

Pre-dates SLIDERS for those time travel story lines. Whatever happened to Jared Martin ????


1977 - ah - what a era .........Star Wars ... Close Encounters....... and these TV Shows.

"My Sister Sam".

Apparently, one episode of this 1986-1988 CBS show made it onto the 'Murphy Brown' season 1 DVD as a bonus, but I doubt the series will ever see DVD. Too many WB shows have yet to make it, and this one is too obscure compared to 'Family Matters" and "Perfect Strangers", etc.

I have only seen 4 episodes of the show, but would buy it without hesitation.

All those Xuxa "kids show" from Brazil.

My vote for wonder years again....they claim that its coming but I dont think it ever will. Good thing I got every episode on 15 bootlegged dvds, honestly best money ive ever spent on dvds even if it is bootlegged.

BAM, I just got the region 2 copy of Bucky, all 13 eps, but no bonus features.

ShallowHal 10-06-05 05:14 AM

The Wonder Years would be great! I have to vote for Men Behaving Badly, though. :lol:

I'll add some that were not mentioned.

Silver Spoons
Different Strokes
Facts of Life
Out of this World

I would love Charles in Charge to be released.

PacMan2006 10-06-05 12:06 PM

Hey Jake...how's the picture quality on your bootlegged Wonder Years dvds?

Which is why I don't pay any attention to critics. I remember MMTC and thought it was rather humorous. Of course, I was only about 13 at the time, so take that for what it's worth.

However, MMTC did last an entire season. Which was 29 more episodes than the (in)famous Laugh-In spin off (whose title escapes me right now) that only aired one show, and which, if I recall correctly, actually received pre-broadcast praise from many critics.

My wife was a Dallas fan.

Nothing great but as good as they were on tv back then. Alot of places offer 7 dvd set or 12 dvd set but mines a 15 disc so it has slightly better quality then most. Best money I spent though for sure,I love them. If it comes out on dvd i'll buy again for sure though.

island007 10-06-05 09:09 PM

That show with Danica McKellar.

PacMan2006 10-06-05 09:51 PM

Thanks Jake...also, how much did buying those set you back?

Also, for those that like Wonder Years...if they changed the music, even if it was only on a small/select amount of episodes, would you buy the set?

It would depend on how much the boots cost, and how many special features are on the real release. If same cost and no worthwhile extras, I'd take the boots. If they were legal of course.
