TV Show that you bought on DVD and feel like it was a waste of money? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

That show for me would be That's My Mama. I was very disappointed and it was a wasted $70.00

Brian Damage · 03-26-2007, 10:42 AM

I guess for me it was Gimme A Break. I just don't think that show holds up anymore.

The OC season 2

I bought "Nick&Jessica:The Newlyweds" Seasons 2&3, and I haven't finished it yet. I may try to watch it later. It's just the same as when I watched it n MTV.

Seinfield I guess I'm not much of a fan anymore.

People "say" that it was uncut, I compared it to my network version and Oxygen, and I saw a little difference. So I didn't miss much, plus the extras sucked. It was just a waste of money.

Well it must not have been one of your favorites, was it a Blind Buy?

No I really like the show, I thought that there were going to be Uncut scenes that I've never seen before. It just sucked when I actually had time to sit down and watch it.

The Nanny S2. I bought it $34.99, with no extras, and have only watched it once. Another one is the Best of Match Game release. When you watch the show on DVD, it is just not the same as on DVD, and was boring. Also, The Facts of Life. As much as I wanted this show on DVD, I have not watched the episodes much at all. They just seem old, and not funny at all.

Facts of Life is watchable from 1981 to 1986 so u must be talking about season 1 and 2

TURBOCSX · 03-27-2007, 08:06 PM

i bought that's my mama also, but i didnt consider it a total waste. season 1 was ok, season 2 was a waste. for me, i would say i've been pretty lucky as to have only bought what i liked. gifts however are a different story. I've got countless classic tv show dvd's that i have gotten as gifts. these are the single disk type that are better left in the $1 bin at walmart then in my dvd changer. Some of them seem to even be pirated or something. The quality is certainly not what you get when you buy a studio released dvd. Some of them I haven't even opened. Mom and Dad mean well, but I haven't got the heart to tell them that the dvd's they pick stink. When I first got my dvd changer, i was loading everything into it. But I have since thought better of that, and i dont bother loading in the garbage i'll never watch.
