Olsen-Twins.org Gone! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

musicradio77 · 06-03-2004, 08:21 PM

This is a message from olsen-twins.org:

Quote:

We have recieved communication from Dualstar's lawyer's basically telling us to take the website offline and hand it over to them or else.

Discuss this in our forums.

So, we're just going to take it offline now. So, goodbye for now, we hope we'll see you soon, watch this space everyday, promise us!

It's been fun running this site, but now it's time to say goodbye until further notice.

Thanks to everyone who's helped run the site over the past year. It's been a great success I think you'll agree.

So for a final (for now) goodbye from the olsen-twins.org web team.

For those of you who donated, your donation was not wasted, it helped keep it open as long as we could. Thank you all.

Lee

Owner of olsen-twins.org

I can't stand this site anymore.

Now I can find some Olsen Twins pictures on other websites. I missed olsen-twins.org.

barb1686 · 06-03-2004, 08:26 PM

Yeah, I saw that a few days ago...that's sad. I knew it would be coming one day...it's illegal to put whole episodes on the internet for download....but it was nice while it lasted.

Hopefully theirpictures are back online sometime again...because that was the only Olsen site I went to.

Are you mad at olsen-twins.org or Dualstar the company? It's Dualstar you should be mad at, but it does make sense...if people are downloading the episodes off of that site then they're not going to buy the videos/DVD's.

Unlike Kazaa or Kazaa Lite, Dualstar is the company that makes the twins' movies and they're not allowed to download episodes from that site. Only the pictures belongs to this site. It will be back online soon.

G-Force Glockstar · 06-03-2004, 10:30 PM

*gasps* You mean it's never coming back again?

I LOVED THE VIDEOS!
Thank God I saved some of them.

swedeace · 06-03-2004, 11:03 PM

I second that! I'm glad I saved all the Full House episodes (I believe I forgot to download the "Sea Cruise" episode

), and I have saved the Two of a Kind episode and the clips.

I can understand the DualStar company, however. But at the same time, I can't understand them! Were there any immediate plans to put out a Full House/Two of a Kind DVD? I doubt it.

On the other hand, I myself would still buy any future DVDs they would release because of extras that TV show DVDs put out.

tgc225 · 06-03-2004, 11:14 PM

All the downloads are currently up; snag them now if you want them before they are gone.

Does Dualstar even have jurisdiction of Full House? I don't think DualStar can make any kind of legal judgement, I think Warner Brothers has the rights to that.

musicradio77 · 06-03-2004, 11:30 PM

You're 100% right. WB has the rights for "Full House", not Dualstar.

IMO, Dualstar does not have the right to download these clips from certain Mary-Kate & Ashley shows. These clips from the media section at olsen-twins.org are illegal.

musicradio77 · 06-03-2004, 11:55 PM

Guess what! Olsen-twins.org is back on and running.

Thanks to everyone. I hope soon, maybe the "Full House" and "Two of a Kind" clips will be remove from this site. Only the pictures.

It's back on.

G-Force Glockstar · 06-04-2004, 10:11 AM

Yah!! Good!
It's my favorite MaryKate and Ashley website!!

ilovethe80s · 06-04-2004, 03:35 PM

I just went to look at that website. It said in order to stay open you need to donate as little as $3

ilovethe80s · 06-04-2004, 03:36 PM

Due to the extreme popularity of olsen-twins.org we are struggling to keep up with server payments so we need your help to keep it open. As you should know, we have the largest media library of Mary-Kate and Ashley material on the internet and if we want to keep it that way we'll need your help to meet the $350 operation costs per month that currently lee and dan pay for with their own money and help from the kind few who have donated so far.

So, if you can spare some cash, please donate either by clicking the link above or goingto the donations section which is in the menu. As little as $3 is a big help!

Thank you,
The Olsen-Twins.org Web Team

barb1686 · 06-04-2004, 04:22 PM

The money isn't the issue really...they say that for right now...they're putting the website up as if nothing is wrong, but there may be quite a few changes...it really depends on negotiations between them and Dualstar. Now if they get to keep it online permanently then they will definitely need money for bandwidth costs.

More details are in the forum under Clean Talk I believe.

Someone one the Mam's Family message board of sitcomsonline, is uploading full episodes of Mama's Family. I tried to warn them it was illegal to upload full episodes of tv programs, but they ignored what I said and when and uploaded seaon 1 episode 4.

Here is what they wrote.

Download Mama's Family Episode 01x04
Hey everyone...

For those of you who want them on your computer, those of you who can't wake up at 6am, or those that just can't watch them on TV anymore. Here's your chance to download ALL the episodes of "Mama's Family" in order!

My video capture card isn't the greatest, but the quality is pretty decent. It took some trial and error, but as the seasons went on, the quality does get much better.

I will be uploading the next episode as soon as possible. My goal is to upload one at least every other day. HOWEVER! KEEP IN MIND! The server that is hosting these files will ONLY be hosting them for 7 days! Which means, 7 days from the time of this post, the link will no longer be valid.

If by some chance, you can't download the episode, or didn't have enough time, or whatever, e-mail me at Eroticdita92@hotmail.com. And when possible, I will re-upload the episode.

Once again, don't forget, each episode will ONLY be available for 7 days!!

I am trying to share something I enjoy with fellow fans, my intention is not a bad one. However, if anyone has a problem with me sharing these files, please let me know.

!!UPDATE!!
It was also called to my attention there IS A LIMIT on how many times a file can be downloaded!!!, so act quickly when the files are uploaded, and remember as I said: If by some chance, you can't download the episode, or didn't have enough time, or whatever, e-mail me at Eroticdita92@hotmail.com. And when possible, I will re-upload the episode.

All files are NTSC, and VCD Ready.

EPISODE 01x04

Originally aired:
Feb. 12, 1983

Title:
The Wedding (Part 2)

Description:
The day of the wedding is at hand, and Vint and Naomi are ready to tie the knot.While Eunice still wants to sing her solo,she first asks Vint who says she'll have to talk to Naomi about it. Mama then gives Vint his daddy's ring as a wedding present, problem is Eunice thinks it's her ring,because Carl always wanted her to have it.While Naomi is getting ready she shows Eunice the ring,saying it's something blue and she prepares to wear it around her neck.

Vint and Naomi say their vows and Eunice,who is already upset at Mama for giving her ring away and has had a few to many beers, prepares to sing her solo in front of the whole crowd.She starts yelling at Mama half way thru about the ring and Mama yells back and it turns into a free-for-all,with Eunice insulting everyone and eventually Ed has to carry Eunice out.

Later,Mama and Fran sit on the couch, and enjoy the peace and quiet that they now have. Vint (who decided to take the kids afterall), Naomi, and the kids have left for Arizona.But the peace doesn't last long cause just then, they walk back into the house, saying that the whole thing was a scam, and they lost all their money. They'll have to move back in with Mama again.
