Right on Soloman!!! I can't stand American Idol or Ryan Seacrest and I don't wish to see him everytime I turn on the tv. I even saw him in a mouthwash advertisement with my sunday coupons. Enough already!!!

I really do hope that season 2 of 227 will be released some time this year. That show is hilarious and I can't understand why more people don't buy it. It is relatively inexpensive (cheaper than the other crap they release) and it deserves a second season release more than stupid Barney Miller does.

JulieSomoski · 01-26-2008, 04:24 PM

Good rant Solomon! I hate Seacrest just as much as you do. The guy seems to be everyone, but I don't know how. I guess we can blame FOX for this one . . . they probably no he'd work for anything.

And I'm with you on Sony. 4 years seems to be there thing. It was 4 years for Barney Miller, and 4 years for Mad About You. Looks like 2008 is the year for Who's the Boss? and 227-LOL. But, I'm not a fan of BM, so it makes me angry to see BM get another release, while much better shows like WTB and 227 don't.

I agree. I want to complete my All In The Family collection on DVD!

Looks like we'll have to wait until 2010 to do that.

Dean Winchester · 01-26-2008, 04:27 PM

I don't like Barney Miller any more than you do, but still.... I thought you'd be happy they revisited Barney Miller after four years! That gives other "abandoned" shows hope. I know you don't like the show, and I don't care for it either, but it's fans deserved more than a half-season that apparently was different than the rest of the show. There are Sony shows I like and ones I dislike, but seeing a show that looked dead on arrival getting another season gives me hope for other shows like 227 and Diff'rent Strokes. Think objectively, even if it's a show you hate, it's still great to see it getting revived after so many years, it makes other shows more likely to come back. Plus, remember Barney Miller is nowhere to be seen in syndication right now, let the fans have another season

I'm not saying BM season 2 shouldn't be released, just that it should be released with all he other one season dvd release shows like 227, Maude and WTB,

His face is on COUPONS TOO???

I am so tired of looking at Ryan Seacrest I can't stand it anymore. Who was he before American Idol?

I would love to have the rest of the seasons of Different Strokes.

Ireneparalegal · 01-26-2008, 05:11 PM

I hear that Solomon. I am so sick of Ryan Seacrest's name and face. He has a radio show in Los Angeles. He took over one of the morning radio shows. Knowing that fool has his mug everywhere is just annoying. Ryan this and Ryan that...gimme a break here.

His mug pops up EVERYWHERE. Has he done the Victoria Secrets lingerie show yet? Will he get his own game show?

I wish American Idol would go away...FAST!

catlover79 · 01-26-2008, 10:29 PM

Hey, hey, hey...you guys are dissing my show (Barney Miller)!!

I do agree, though, that it would be nice to see Season 2 of 227...I recently viewed the first season and really enjoyed it. Now, let's get Season 4 of Facts of Life released, too!!

I too am sick of Ryan Seacrest - he's everywhere, and won't go away!!!

Help!!

Mr. Television · 01-26-2008, 10:36 PM

another reason for me not to watch the SB pre-game show.

He needs a woman, too many media responsibilities-lol

PlayOn · 01-27-2008, 01:16 AM

I don't really have a problem with Seacrest. I mean I wish he wasn't on AI talking to people as they go in (which I don't really get) but I watch to vote for the next Carrie Underwood (meaning big star), not to see him. Having his own show on radio show is over the top, tho.
Don't get me started on Sony. Aren't they the people that put FOL on DVD? If they are, I know alot of people on the FOL board who would be happy to throw a bomb at the studio. Alot of AITF fans as well, like myself. What also makes me mad is there lack of extras. We pay nearly 20 bucks for a show (sometimes more) and the only extras are promos and a little friggin' booklet that tells what the episodes are. Season 2 of AITF had one, anyway.

I never saw BM so I don't have a dog in that race.

GIMME ALL OF BARNEY MILLER!!!!!
