Sorry to start a new thread for this, but...
Can I just say how incredibly PISSED OFF I am? After watching ABC treat this show like complete s**t more or less throughout its short life, to finally have the chance for redemption via DVD... just to see it PISSED on once again by the current powers that be is just... well I feel like sort of like I've just been kicked in the stomach.
I'll shut up now.

With all due respect, how well do we know jimk? Are we sure he's giving us the straight dope? It is April Fool's Day, despite his protestations to the contrary.
jimk, I'm leaning towards believing you but I still want to watch my DVDs for myself when they arrive (by the end of next week, hopefully).
You know, I think I'll miss the songs from "Classical Gas" more than the ones from "Operation: Spoilsport". The whole friggin' episode is a great big build-up to the kids playing at Woodstock or Live Aid or Culpapalooza or what-ever-the-hell-it-was-called...and when they finally get there, we're not gonna get to see the real performance??
Man, if I were still married, I'd pull my wife's feeding tube...

Man, if I were still married, I'd pull my wife's feeding tube... ROTFLM@O! To be fair, someone ELSE posted in the Yahoo group that they got the DVDs today too, and no covers. Independant confirmation? I'll still wait to see what news April 2nd brings.... |

I ain't offended -- I'm just unhappy...  If I was you, I wouldn't blame you for holding out hope that I've spent the last 4 hours posting in detail making all this stuff up, but I haven't. |

Where did they get the DVDs? I called Fry's and they told me they had nine copies. So, I trudged over there and THEN they told me they can't sell them to me until Tuesday.  |

That Girl,
I posted in the original thread that I got it early-- I said that there are a couple of places that put stuff out the thursday or friday before street date -- if you check again, I told you not to bother to go! Sorry! Stores are not officially supposed to break the "street date" but if you know where to look (in NYC, anyway)....but definitely chainstores (Fry's, Best Buy) won't carry it till Tuesday...

Oh, no problem. I didn't just go by your post. I called first. The guy at the store told me, "Yes, we have it. We have nine copies!" That's all he said. He did not say they could not release it until Tuesday. He should have told me when I called. I only went because of the phone call first. |
