Hey guys, it's been a while - over 2 years!

I just saw a site that has tons of previously unreleased complete series sets on DVD. All obtained legally from the original source. No Facts of life, but def worth a try to email them to get it on their list of releases.

This is what their FAQ page says:

Some of these DVD's haven't even been released yet. How is it possible that you sell them?

There is a section of the American copyright law known as "The Berne Act" that Clearly states: films unreleased in the United States, including original versions of films altered and/or edited for release in the United States, are NOT protected by American copyright; thus, they are considered public domain. The entire purpose of our website is to provide otherwise unavailable films or television shows to the serious collector.

So in other words in order to get the rest of this classic show out on DVD we would have had to rely on some "bootleg" site, while crap like "SWINEfeld" and "Friends" gets every single episode on DVD from every season?! I don't get it!

I think everything that's ever been on film should be on DVD . That way, nobody has to say "Why is EVERY EPISODE of this show on DVD ? Why not MY show ?" .

I dont know if anyone read my post about this on a previous thread but I got the rest of the series on ioffer.com and its great quality. I think i only paid $40 for seasons 6-10 and they included several specials and the reunion movie plus the 2 tv movies.
