Married.. with Children Season 8 --> 03/18/08

This is the season where NO MA'AM was created!

http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/news/Mar...-Season-8/8724

The dys-FUNction continues with the less-than-loveable Bundys! Peggy switches seats with Al at a basketball game, and ends up being chosen for the $10,000 free throw contest. Kelly and Bud buy a car to share, and then are forced to double date. Due to a hospital mix-up, Al is accidentally circumcised after he’s injured playing baseball. Al could get a brand new car as his old Dodge nears 999,999 miles, but can he hold out?

With the success of Christina Applegate's latest series, Samantha Who?, you knew that Sony wouldn't wait long to bring us Married... with Children - The Complete 8th Season on DVD! Join Kelly, Bud, Peggy and Al Bundy on March 18th, and their guests that include NBA stars Clyde Drexler, Vlade Divac and Xavier McDaniel, plus Jerry Springer (as himself), baseball legends Ernie Banks and Johnny Bench, NFL legend Joe Namath, the voice of Cheech Marin (as a change-of-pace voice for Buck the dog), Dom DeLuise (voicing another dog, Floyd), Gary Coleman, Danny Bonaduce, Julie Benz, Chi McBride, singer Stacy Ferguson ("Fergie"), the voice of Rick Dees, Waylon Jennings, and a brief background appearance by Nicholas Brendon. Amanda Bearse and Ted McGinley co-star as The D'Arcy's.

The 3-DVD set will contain all 26 episodes of the 8th season (there were 11 total), in original full-screen video and with English audio. There are no extras planned for this release, other than bonus previews of other Sony TV-DVD products. Running time is 592 minutes, and the cost is $39.95 SRP. Below we have a look at the cover art, but keep in mind that it's not finalized and is subject to change:

OK, dumb question, but the entire Series of MwC is available on DVD in other countries, (I've seen s8-11 rips and encodes that include no TV logos, are great quality, and include the "new" theme song) so WHY is the country that produced the show getting the series in drips and drabs? What could Fox possibly be thinking in this marketing strategy?

Sony is releasing the DVDs, not Fox.

The strange thing is that MwC is INSANELY popular in Germany and (to a lesser extent) other European countries.. the series is probably a better seller there than it is here. Sony probably also thinks there's some kind of gain to a more spread out release, I don't know. Honestly, I've been saying this since season one came out, anything they release after season six is bonus for me.. I'll get them if they come but I won't be despondent if they don't.. and that holds more true for each subsequent season after the sixth one. I am happy that they are on track to release them all though, even if they're taking their sweet ass time (season one was released in 2003).

I honestly did several searches before I posted, the search function here is kind of wonky.

I got mine today in the mail and was shocked to see Sony have changed the packaging and now its almost identical to season 1, which only had 13 episodes... Whats wrong keeping the packaging the same as 2-7?

So they replaced the theme song on all the MwChildren episodes? Any chance we will see a complete series set of MwC?

Knowing Sony...once all the seasons are out we shall see a complete box set. Perhaps in the shape of a women's shoe or a Dodge car?

Season 1 had a thinner folding pack since there were only 13 episodes. Season 8 is actually the three discs in two thin pack cases. Personally, I feel this is how it should have been that way since the start but whatever, it's not a big deal.
