I was looking at Home Theater Forum and a WTB fan there posted that one of her friends emailed Sony, and instead of the standard emails, actually received a "Sony is planning to have season two out by year end, but no confirmed date as of yet". I felt like mentioning it because I know how much you guys have been wanting more WTB on DVD and until now, there hadn't really been much word from Sony.

Yeah I saw that, I hope it's true. I honestly don't believe that Season 1 sold that poorly. I think it sold enough to warrant future releases. The show does have quite a following even now :)

:woohoo: That means we'll have all seasons out by 2012! ;) (at this rate)

But thats awesome news. Season 2 was a great season..but I hope they have better special features this time. They should have cast commentaries :)

Sony really sucks for all shows besides Seinfeld. Now I love Seinfeld and I'm glad they're releasing them very quickly, but Sony has one of the best TV libraries of any company and they treat their shows like crap. It's sad because so many of my childhood favorites are owned by the company.

Paramount is highly criticized, but they seem to know how to do TV right and they seem committed to their shows (even though they've been doing too slow with Happy Days, Laverne And Shirley and Mork And Mindy). Just compare how they've released 2 seasons of Taxi (Tony Danza's OTHER big show) and season 3 is following shortly and Paramount's already guarenteed we'll see seasons 4 and 5 eventually, all in the span of time since WTB season 1 came out. Paramount generally seems more committed to following through while Sony seems to release a show than forget about it for years.

Sometimes I wonder if Sony does this on purpose, maybe they want to put such a long wait between seasons, that maybe they hope people forget about said show, and then they won't have to spend the money to release the rest of that show :( Just a thought

Oh I so hope this is true. I have been waiting so long for it.. just like all the other fans. And the girl I've been watching 9and known for years) keeps asking me, "When is Season 2 Coming out? Any news?" And now I can tell her too! ;) yay.. .let's just really hope it's a true fact.

Wait, a second. I just thought of something last night or early this morning...

Did the person say that Sony told them it could be out by the end of the year? Becasue that is what they've been telling people now, and no date is still set... and I know you said that and also the thing about it not being a standard E-mail, but I'm not so sure now.

No im pretty sure its not a standererd email, the standererd one is used for all shows, while they actually mention "season 2" here

Plus, Sony is releasing loads of sitcom DVDs from Oct-Dec, so im thinking (and hoping) that one of them is WTB S2

Actually, that was posted at HTF, and Dave Lambert from TvShowsonDVD.com said that that was a standard reply, and doesn't really mean much. :( Too bad, I really want to own ALL of WTB? (Considering how N@N LOVES to give crappy edits...grr.)

N@N actually isn't bad on the editing side, at least, not as bad as ABC Family.

I'm still not giving up hope though, Pav said that he thinks Oct-Dec will be a big sitcom time for Sony. I mean, they gotta release it sometime.

Yeah people thought there was no hope of the Jeffersons Season 3 ever getting a release and it did, so I believe there's hope for more WTB ;)

Yeah, I honestely do believe we'll be seeing Season 2, i dont know when, but sometime.

Actually I think eventually we'll have the whole series, it may be years from now, but we'll eventually have it.

Too bad WTB? isn't owned by a faster company.

I wish WTB was owned by Anchor Bay, they release all seasons of shows even if the sales aren't spectacular :)

Cool, thats what I think every company should do. But I do believe that WTB? sold decently.

Haven't heard that one. I know that is when N@N will stop airing the show. I really hope TVLAND picks it up at some point!!

Gimme A Break season one is being released on February 14, 2006.
A show that I didn't think stood a snowball's chance in Hell of ever being released. Mainly because the show has never been in steady syndication.
The last time it was rerun was about 10 years ago on the USA network.
So if they can put GAB out on DVD, they should have WTB up to season
3-4 by now. Come on get with it Sony. :soapbox:

Gimme A Break is being released by Universal that's a big difference, but Universal is just as bad with continuing releases as Sony is ohno:

wtb did sell decent or at least enough to show that people want another season release. but i dont think that matters wether it sold great or not i mean come on sony is totaly rich by the sucessful sales of their tv's, play stations, dvds and other electronics. they are just too lazy i mean if who's the boss? sea. 2 doesent sell well they got nothin to lose! sony is just to dumb and lazy on dvd releases!
