Man, was a surprised when I emailed Columbia House to see how many volumes of "DS" they had and got THIS reply:

"Currently, there are 10 volumes in the
Different Strokes Columbia House TV GREATS series.

Additional episodes in the Different Strokes series have not yet been released. Although we continually try to obtain additional episodes, a release date and episode titles of any new volumes are not available at this time. Subscribers to a series will be notified of any product line extensions."

OK. If anyone knows of the individual episodes on these 10 volumes, PLEASE list them! I would email Columbia House again, but it takes like a week to get a reply! If they start getting into the 1983 and beyond episodes, I might think about buying from Columbia House.

I posted the list in another thread and have received 9 tapes and none of them are beyond the 1981-1982 season so that doesn't seem likely. Perhaps they couldn't get the rights to any of these. I don't understand why they aren't planning on releasing more then 10 volumes when many of the shows they offer have 20+ volumes.
