What a shame that Delta and Linda Bloodworth Thomason mended fences, but this was the best they came up with. A wasted opportunity.

The whole setup was wrong - Suzanne as a politician just didn’t make any sense.

Unfortunately it is already out of stock on Amazon.

This is good news! I'll be picking this up too plus Season 7 of Different Strokes and the one sided re-release of Quincy Season 1.

I ordered it but I never thought it was a great show. It was just so endlessly talky it became tedious--the same thing happened with HEARTS AFIRE. I wish they had released DELTA instead. THAT was a fun show!

I ordered it too. I had forgotten about Delta. Hopefully someone will release it too soon. I have Hearts Afire but only bought it because of John Ritter. I didn't think the show was that funny.

I agree about Hearts Afire--great cast, boring scripts. I got it cheap years ago but it still sits unopened. I doubt Delta will ever be released because it has a ton of music issues and not exactly a large fanbase clamoring for it. The Reba McEntire theme song alone would cost a bundle, and the show wouldn't be the same without it.

Good comparison on Hearts Afire, another show that should have been great but wasn’t (the cast, as you pointed out, was amazing).

Linda Bloodworth, like “Murphy Brown” creator Diane English, is a bit of a one-trick pony. Had one really successful series but had trouble coming up with another. I know that she did Evening Shade too, but that’s similar to Hearts in that the cast is too big, and the scripts are sort of boring.
