I have a nice collection of NAME of THE GAME - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

cprompt · 04-27-2006, 07:02 PM

Hello: I don't know if there would be any interest in something like this, please let me know your thoughts... I have a nice size, a really pretty good size ---VHS ---NAME of THE GAME--- collection with Tony Franciosa, Gene Barry and all.. I haven't done much with it, I have watched a few, and the quality is what you might expect from a series that hasn't aired (to my knowledge) in a long time.. I was happy just to have them..I just todaywent to the well known website where people 'offer-up' things so to speak and I did notice that at least part of the set is out there.. My question is (and I am not pushing anything on anyone) is this a worthwhile project to put them on DVD, or is this set pretty much in good supply?? I really do NOT know, I need your help.. Thank You very much. Donald aka Donny-Dawg

The eps that aired on Plex/Mystery several years ago are in abundant supply, as you noticed. They only aired less than 1/2 of the shows though. If you have the others in nice quality, it is definitely a worthwhile project.

Hello:
That is VERY VERY helpful information. It looks like (I MAY HAVE-although I need to check the episode titles against your list- the list you so thoughtfully provided for me) I MAY HAVE got taken pretty good (it's was quite a while back about 2 years ago that I received these eps, it's a whole big box of them, they are NOT from PLEX/MYSTERY I am pretty sure about that), Ohhh well, that's the TvTrading Biz 4-U. Again thank you VERY VERY much for the info, I now know to be much more careful then I was 3 years ago when I started in this KRA-ZEE hobby, and whol knows maybe I have some of the sought after episodes !!!!

How so? If they are not from Mystery and are nice quality, seems to me you'd be sitting pretty.

Hello:
YOU ARE 100 percent right, I am/or/have been looking at this thru a negative lens, in other words, I almost had the EXPECTATION or in other words I made it into a FORGONE-CONCLUSION that I was or got-took... But that's wrong thinking, it almost seems like the longer someone is in this hobby the more natural it becomes to think wrongly like that. You have helped me snap out of it, some.... If some of the eps (I have) are/or/turn out to be sought after, then those eps could EASILY be worth the whole price I originally paid (it was another venue-not SITCOMS by the way) for the whole box...Where I am wrong is I need to check. You are a nice person to supply the list of eps to help me get motivated here.. You are BUDDY!!! Donny-Dawg

lazygrae · 04-27-2006, 09:57 PM

Please do let me know what you come up with. I have a lot of those episodes, but only in fair to poor quality. Would love to upgrade and complete that series - it's one of my faves.

Hello:
You are a nice person and a Good Buddy, I will certainly try to check for you.. It's a "daunting" task as they say because the guy who sent me this box of NAME of THE GAME didn't label things too well or at all really. But now thanks to you I have goal to reach... Part of the reason I liked the show was that it was so big in the 1970's when I was just a boy. You know how that goes, when a person is a boy, the shows that he watches become "bigger than life" I think natural, I know that's why I just LOVE SITCOMS-ONLINE!!!

Hello Lazygrae:
What I can do is make up a sample disc for you for NAME of THE GAME... Also would you like me to send you disc 1 of ( 1 thru 13 ) of In Search oF w/Leornard Nimoy?? It's from Canadian TV telecasts?? By the way it is my practice to send first, I do not want anyone to say I out-traded them, or disapointed them. I ALWAYS provide my cell phone number to other SITCOMSONLINE members that are seriously considering a trade with me. PLEASE tell me, if you know or if you can find out.....what is the difference between REPLY + QUICK REPLY, does it have something to do with the concept behind "bump" what a funny word HAHAHAHAHA
