I had never seen or even heard of this show till a few weeks ago, and I am very intrigued by what I have read. It sounds like it has more wit and edge than most 80s sitcoms, and seems to have been way ahead of its time. The people at the sites I checked for this show, like Jump The Shark and IMDb are all pretty much unanimous in praising It's Your Move saying its one of the funniest shows they've seen. I must see this! :p Now that Jason Bateman is back in the Hollywood mainstream with Arrested Development, I think it would be cool to put this series on DVD. Whether or not it would have an audience, I don't know. I'm willing to bet there are a decent amount of people who would be willing to do a blind buy, and the fans would pick it up. Do you guys think it has a chance on DVD?

I have only been hoping and dreaming of a DVD release for....oh....years. This was my favorite 80s sitcom, bar none. I actually have a few from the original airingm but broke down and bought the whole series off EBay last year. The wait for the DVD was just bringing me down. I do hope that with Jason's new super star status that that will change, but let us not forget that they are having a hard enough time with getting people to watch the show that he's on now, much less the show that they couldn't get people to watch 20 years ago.

Ii use to love this show. It would be great if it came to DVD but I wouldn't count on it. Most of the short lived TV shows getting released seem to be more recent shows.

I have all 18 on DVD. Mostly original NBC's if anyone wants to trade.

I think a DVD release of this show's one and only season would sell enough to make a profit.

I saw every episode during the original airing - except for the conclusion of the 2 parter with the fake rock band. I didn't even know that that concluding episode had aired until I read about it many years later. I think they changed the schedulte at the end, or skippped a week, or something.

I was in 8th grade at the time, and everyone I knew who watched it, loved it.

trader alert - i have its your move complete on dvds and high quality other series too so traders please email me hiwatt75@yahoo.com

I bet it would sell on DVD. A lot us in the "thirties age group" would probably buy it out of nostalgia, plus Jason Bateman seems to be more popular now than his child actor years. I could see them putting it out, but the big question is would they really??

Someone is selling all 18 eps of It's Your Move on DVD on ebay. One day left in the auction.

No I have 4 NBC eps on the way in the mail. If I like those then I will probably want the rest. But a show like this with only 18 eps, i would probably only take the NBC versions instead of the USA network versions.

If Sony Pictures owns this it could very well be released.

I doubt it. Since this show only had 18 eps, I don't think Sony would even waste the time of releasing this show on DVD

Well the show certainly has enough of a cult following to warrant its release, plus with only 18 episodes they could issue it as a relatively inexpensive 2 or 3 disc box set.

I just don't see it. A tv show from 22 years ago with one season being released on DVD. Very slim chance

I couldn't agree more. I like this show simply for the sake of childhood memories. Other than that, this show has very little to offer and would no doubt be a huge financial loss for whoever owns it.

A HUMONGOUS LOSS-lol No one from that show is doing anything BIG right now so you know it would be a waste

The only castmember which is still doing lots of new stuff is Jason Bateman and there might be a little chance for a DVD release if he gets more famous.
We will see...

I don't see that happening. Jason Bateman has played pretty much the exact same character in everything he has done in his post-It's Your Move/Silver Spoons life.

The Hogan Family. Arrested Development. Juno. It's all the same nice guy who thinks he's a little better than those around him.

Don't get me wrong. I'll be one of the first to support the claim that Arrested Development is one of the most underrated -- if not one of the best -- shows of the past twenty years. I think Jason Bateman's great...I just don't see his career going much further than it's gone already.

Definitely not far enough to warrant a release of this show.

I agree, no money to be made in releasing this show

Wow... lots of nay-sayers here talking about the lack of $$$ to be made by offering a DVD set of this series. I'll admit I'm not all that optimistic, but never say never. SHOUT FACTORY is really getting the ball rolling this year by releasing some shows not seen in ages and with folks who have been out of the limelight for a long time ("Rhoda", "Mr. Belvedere", "Room 222", etc) and MPI is apparently giving the green light to "The Mothers-In-Law", so anything's possible.

A couple things going for "It's Your Move" would be the entire run consists of only 18 episodes (can easily be done inexpensively as a single volume, 2 or 3 DVD set), so there are no worries about leaving fans hanging about subsequent seasons... this one's one and done! Not to mention enough folks would purchase this solely for the legendary "Dregs of Humanity" two-part episode.
