"Busy Christmas" on DVD? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

matt77b · 12-20-2010, 10:23 PM

Has this episode been released on DVD? Last night I watched my nearly 20 year-old prerecorded VHS copy (released by Good Times on an LP speed tape) and it's starting to deteriorate (bad video quality, a bit fuzzy on the audio). I would love to get it on DVD if it's available.

Its available on DVD. I got it on this set from Mill Creek Entertainment:

Holiday TV Classics

http://www.millcreekent.com/ViewProd...?productid=434

It has these five O&H episodes:

Busy Christmas
The Christmas Tree Lot
The Girl in the Emporium
The Late Christmas Gift
Piano for the Fraternity

I found it at Walmart for $5, but I think you can get it online for under $10.

The episode is also avaiable for download at the Internet Archive.

Wow, that is quite a bargain. I will try to buy that DVD. Busy Christmas is a classic.

That looks like a great dvd. 49 episodes, $5.00 cool.

OH Nuts! · 12-22-2010, 05:55 PM

Have all of these Adv. O & H eps. Have a lot of other Xmas TV show DVDs. But 49 eps for $5 is a darn good deal. If I come across this set & I don't have most have them already - I may buy it.

Jude The Obscure · 12-23-2010, 12:38 PM

wow--that is a good deal!!

I hope I come across it - it certainly sounds intriguing

The $5 price I saw was in Walmart's $5 DVD bin. I think after Christmas, they remove all the Christmas DVDs from the bin. But I saw it at their website for the same price:

It has a different cover, but the set in that link is the same Mill Creek set I posted in this thread.

Jude The Obscure · 12-24-2010, 12:32 AM

oh well, if I miss it, I miss it......certainly NOT venturing into Walmart on Christmas Eve!

ILUVO&H · 12-26-2010, 03:07 PM

Ah..lol I do have this dvd.. it's just with a different cover. I just bought it this year found it at Deepdiscounts.com and got it for $5.00. I hadn't gotten around ot watching all the disks and had forgotten it had O&H on it.. which how could I have forgotten that, it was the reason I bought the set.
