Yippee...
Since I've already got the DVD set of WH (all of it), it won't really be that exciting this time around.
Plus, it looks like the WHN episodes are gonna be shown in the wee hours, and since those particular episodes aren't among my favorites anyways, it's just as well...

If only they'd show all of the WHN episodes...it would be excellent!

[ThomasE]

Well, Dee will be in two of them...wow "2 episodes." I just realized how that sounded. Anyway, the ep when Raj dresses in drag and the ep when everyone is looking through photos with clips from old episodes. It would have been nice had they shown the ep when Dee returns or Dee's 21st birthday.

Yeah, really... I quite agree, Tommie.
It would have been great/perfect if they ever showed the WHN episodes of...
"Dee's Dilemma" (when Dee returns home, and then wants to quit school to sell cosmetics),
"Dee and Dwayne" (where she and Dwayne go out, & Raj greatly dislikes it),
"Girls' Night Out" (where it's Dee's 21st B-day, and Raj tries to save her from a planned raid on a male-strip joint),
and also
"Man in Motion" (where Dee falls in love w/a comedian who's wheelchair-bound, and she wants to go on the road with him!)

Ah well...maybe someday soon we can see these, plus the others, on DVD or even a marathon dedicated to WHN only! Not kidding...

[Brian Damage]

A What's Happening Now marathon would be so much better.

Oh, totally agreed with ya there, Brian...

Even if they didn't get around to putting WHN on DVD right away, it would greatly suffice if the TVLand or another similar network could somehow put that cool show within a marathon run!

[Pavan]

I think they didn't want to "edit and convert" more WHN episodes. Since it costs money to edit. But for this instance it is strange, since The Program Exchange already does the edits for you...so I don't see why they wouldn't air more WHN episodes. The pilot is airing again on a block in June for a Top 10 episode.
