I find it extremely hard to believe - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Hey gang,

Haven't posted on any forum in a while, but wanted to post here because I'm frustrated

with whoever the decision makers are as to what gets released and what doesn't. Evening Shade is the PERFECT example! The show ran what 4 or 5 years, had fairly decent ratings because if it didn't, it wouldn't have lasted very long, and yet fans can only get Season 1 on DVD? I find it hard to believe Evening Shade with decent ratings gets ONE season on DVD, while shows that only lasted ONE SEASON get DVD sets for all of their episodes. Granted in the one example I can think of the NFL had something to do with the show being pulled, but still this show ran one year, and all episodes are on DVD. Yet Evening Shade gets 1 year out of what 4 or 5?

Anybody here know who we yell at for this foul up?

I liked the show and was sorry to see it end.

I've heard the argument that Evening Shade somewhat doesn't hold up because of Burt Reynolds. What I mean is that he would often say his lines as if each sentence was a punch line. He also sounded like he could barely get the words out.
