Unfortunately, nothing. There hasn't been a new tv-on-dvd release announced in a while that I have been interested in. I think the last one I bought was "Kate & Allie". I did get the recent volume of "The 3 Stooges" which is technically categorized under movies even though most stores stock them in the TV-on-dvd section. But there don't seem to be any follow-ups to shows I have already purchased. So I'm not buying any tv-on-dvd until somebody decides to release something classic.

Nothing for me this week. I still have to finish watching all the TV shows that I have bought from the past 4 weeks.

"Life With Derek" is pretty good. I may get that somewhere down the line. It harks back to the good family sitcoms of the 80s.

Yeah plan on picking up season 5 of The Incredible Hulk too next week. Cant wait. Glad that Universal gave us the whole series on DVD and not drop it like they did with Leave It To Beaver.

Same here, although Hulk is certainly a bigger seller than Beaver. I'm glad also that Uni isn't charging a full season price for 7 episodes (unlike some studios). I know the eps aren't the greatest but I don't rmember them and also want to see the gag reel that we've been waiting for since S1 was announced.

:lol:

Very much enjoying my Back to You DVD. Picked it up for $26.99 at Best Buy, and I watched it all last night - the unaired episodes are hilarious. This show is really what sitcoms are all about. I'm hearing that DVD sales have been good so far.

The 3 I remember from season 5 was the basball one,and theres the one with the slaves,and the episode where David enters the town of Hillvalley(Well thats what I call it) And everybody in town is knocked out. Something to do with a chemical plant I think? Been along time since I scene it. Yeah I think Jack Mcgee only aprears in 1 or 2 episodes this season also? It's to bad the show got canceld. I always felt sorry for Jack as he never did figure out who John Doe was. Then in 1988 poor Jack got killed by a killer doll named Chucky.

Best Buy is so overpriced. I bet I'll pick this release up at target for $19.99 next week;) Any idea what Target is asking for it?

Target is usually my first choice because their prices are phenomenal on TV-on-DVD, but amazingly enough, my local Target didn't have it Tuesday. So, I called the store manager at around 3pm on Tuesday, and said they didn't plan on getting in any shipments of it. Strange.

So, Best Buy was the cheapest I could find. And speaking of BB, they had a huge selection of Tv-on-DVD, the most I've seen from them in a long time. I was literally shocked - they even had Who's the Boss? and Murphy Brown Season 1, which I haven't seen in stores in at least 2 years.

Well my local BB and Target haven' stocked Roseanne in almost a year now and I'm pissed. I still need seasons 5-7. I'll probably end up getting them off Amazon with Christmas money.

BTW, when I do go to pick it up, I'll make sure to post Target's price if they have it here;)

I love it when I wait for a sale at Target... it's great finding some season set DVD's for either $18.99 or $19.99. It was worth waiting for shows like Golden Girls and Supernatural (especially the latter; that show isn't often on sale that cheap). Their selection can be really good at times, at least at the one near me. I agree, Best Buy has great selection but they can be overpriced.

I think Target is so mutch better then Walmart when it comes to DVD's and Blu-Ray discs. When ever something I want comes out on DVD my local Walmart always lets me down as they wont have what I want. Target on the other hand has not let me down yet. They always get the movies and TV shows that I want.

I agree, Wal-Mart does seem to have great prices, but their selection just plain sucks. They pretty much never have what I'm looking for.

Thanks! It'll probably be $19.99, like usual for new releases - the only thing Target sucks at is keeping the DVD's in stock :lol:

You still haven't got Roseanne seasons 5-7? This is one show I got all the seasons right when they come out. And Target was usually the place to go to for them - they were all $19.99 there, but $10 more at Best Buy.

Walmart is great with prices, but yeah, their selection sucks. All they seem to carry is current shows and Sony shows. Circuit City is usually good, but its hit and miss with them - either their prices are great, or their overprices. And Best Buy, especially the one buy me, has got an oustanding selection, but their prices are still higher than they should be.
