Poor DVD Sales For 'The Mary Tyler Moore Show?' - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I read somewhere that season 1 sold so badly that they stopped the continuation of the seasons. Now obviously they are all out and complete....what changed? Anybody know?

From what I remember of season1 of TMTMS DVD release was quite pricey,I

also had to pay custom charges as I'm in the UK and the DVD set was over the free amount coming into the UK.

I think season2 had already been done but they held it over for a few years.

Oprah's reunion of the MTMS certainly helped the DVD release of seasons 5,6

and 7.
