Directly From Paramount - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I didn't know you can buy copies of show films directly from paramount. I can't cause I'm too young and it's overly expensive, but they say you can..

Another thing i found to be cool..
I called paramount up and offered to pay upwards to $1000 to get myself DVD sets of wings.. I was just joking, but they didn't think so. They told me it was impossible at the moment because they are still adding commentary and interviews before they can release the DVD in stores in Season Sets. I asked the guy if I'm suppose to know this, and he hung up on me.

You know what this means? It means they have accepted that wings should be on DVD and they are in the process of doing so!

It's amazing when a teenager like myself accidently figures out all this kind of information..

Although I called back later and got the same guy (or atleast sounded like him.) and I did the $1000 offer. He told me the Wings DVD sets were still in the idea stage and haven't yet been accepted to be released yet.

I don't know which one is true, but paramount should fire the liar. Lol.

I hope it's true and Wings will come out soon.

I thought NewsRadio was supposed to come out back in February, but they must have delayed it or something.

What is NewsRadio?

NewsRadio aired on NBC from 1995 to 1999. It was a sitcom about a radio station. Very underrated sitcom. I'm sure if you love Wings, you'd like NewsRadio.

Last I heard, Stephen Root said he finished doing commentary for the set. I guess ALL the actors (Minus Phil Hartman, for obvious resasons) took part in the commentary. And there will be commentary for all the episodes.

And to Webteen, I don't know if you reconginze any of the names here, but they're NewsRadio cast members.

Dave Foley as Dave Nelson
Maura Tierney as Lisa Miller
Phil Hartman as Bill McNeal (1995-98)
Andy Dick as Matthew Brock
Vicki Lewis as Beth
Stephen Root as Mr. Jimmy James
Khandi Alexander as Catherine Duke (1995-97)
Joe Rogan as Joe Garrelli
Jon Lovitz as Max Louis (1998-99)

When "NewsRadio" debuted back in 1995, it was on the same night as "Wings." That's what got me watching Wings in it's original run. I'd watch Wings and then NewsRadio. They're both my two favorite sitcoms.

I called and someone told me he hasn't heard anything about it being on DVD, so either we have two liars or two very confused people.

Oh I've seen it before. My dad used to record it all the time. The tapes might be somewhere.
