I just recieved this season 3 in the mail earlier this week. It's the only Webster set that I own. I'm going to watch all 29 episodes but I honestly only bought this so I can see the "Who's To Blame" episode again. This episode terrified me when I was 8 years old! It'll be real interesting to see it again, this time through the eyes of an adult. I'll buy season 5 if it ever gets releaed just so I can see the "Basketball Blues" episode again.

I noticed that the back of the DVD case says that Webster "ran for six seasons on ABC from 1983-1989." But according to "The Complete Directory
To Prime Time Network And Cable TV Shows" book Webster aired on ABC from 1983-1987 and then in first-run syndication during the 1987-1988 season only. I'm not sure but I think both of them are wrong. I think it ran on ABC from 1983-1987 and then in first-run syndication for the following two seasons.
