Chain Gang Member · 03-12-2007, 12:56 PM

If they were gonna make DVDs after the entire series was released of DVD,they should've made The Ropers and Three's A Crowd instead!

AB · 03-12-2007, 02:56 PM

Not sure, but maybe they make them for people who don't want to buy every
season but who do want to own some of the funniest episodes. I wouldn't mind having some of them.

If you have all 8 seasons on dvd its pretty much a waste. i would like to see the ropers and three's a crowd on dvd.

If you've never seen a show a "best of dvd" is an affordable way to check it out. If you like the show then you can begin to purchase the season sets. Retailers like "best of" DVDs because they are good impulse purchases.

I think this is telling them that their is a audience for threes company still!!

If janet's sell..

they will for sure put out the ropers & threes a crowd

BensonFan · 03-13-2007, 01:28 PM

Just a way to make more $$$...but if people buy the Janet one, you'll see more to follow.

TVFactFan · 03-13-2007, 04:24 PM

Maybe they should release the

best of Felipe
best of Angelino
best of Dean travers
best of Mike the bartender

Mrs. Roper · 03-14-2007, 12:03 PM

I totally agree with you on that!!!!

I would buy "The Ropers" and "Three's a Crowd" if they released them. It seemed like the obvious follow-up to the completion of the TC sets. I hope they are, at least, looking into it. There definitely is a demand out there for these.

Read my website's news section regarding the spin-offs. DLT is trying to sell them to a DVD company, but Anchor Bay and other companies are not interested, so we have to keep emailing Anchor Bay and maybe even other companies, like Shout! or S'more.

Robert 13 · 03-14-2007, 03:29 PM

I'll e-mail Shout. What about S'more? Are they a good candidate? I've never heard of them before. I have also mentioned the spin-offs to Canada's VEI.

Pavan · 03-14-2007, 06:04 PM

S'more is an excellent candidate, I think. They are very good. http://www.smoreent.com/contact.html

I just sent them an e-mail asking for the spin-offs. I made a good argument for releasing them and mentioned the crossover episode of "The Ropers" and the guest appearances some members of the cast have made on both shows. I stated that fans are anxiously awaiting their release with the completion of TC on dvd. I hope they are interested.

Pavan · 03-16-2007, 01:14 PM

Well, I just made a pitch to S'more (I know the president well) and he will try to pursue both series. It all depends if they can afford it.

Robert 13 · 03-16-2007, 01:55 PM

That's great, pav! This is as close as we've got to a possible release of the spin-offs. I hope they decide it's worth it. We know it is.

I will buy both sets if they come out or whatever they can release.
