WBK IS worth putting in our video collections!! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Definitely! Solomon, i've read most of your posts in regard to WBK, & have to wonder, why do you bother with it, if you find so much fault with the show? You are of course entitled to your own opinion as we all are, but i can't stand when someone puts down a program i like. How anyone could find anything wrong with such an awesome show like WBK, is beyond me. It's class, through & through. So, it gets a bit silly at times, or Gabe does a few scenes in his apartment. I think the series is a thousand times better than ANY current sitcoms. It is a comedy, therefore it's bound to get silly, at times. AND it's other legion of devoted fans would agree, i'm sure. Also, i haven't any doubt that WBK will soon get a much deserved VHS/DVD release. I'm sure you've got your favourite shows like we all do. Perhaps you don't get it. The jokes, the humor. But for those of us who remember it, & watch the reruns, it's a different era, & the show brings back some incredibly good & warm memories, & never fails to make us chuckle & wish we were back in 1975 :-).

No-not good enough to be o DVD or Video

friskyfantasia · 01-20-2003, 09:59 PM

Then don't buy it. Just continue watching the garbage you're used.

friskyfantasia · 01-20-2003, 10:02 PM

It won't never be on DVD so i won't have to worry about buying it.

Brian Damage · 01-21-2003, 03:35 PM

Just ignore SOLOMON, he intentionally likes to get under peoples skin. WBK has a chance to go to DVD just as much as Good Times.

friskyfantasia · 01-22-2003, 12:52 AM

Thanks Brian :-).

Brian Damage · 01-22-2003, 04:09 PM

No problem.

DetectiveGriffin · 01-22-2003, 05:04 PM

I'm all for an animated version of WBK -- maybe even WBK Babies.
Anybody with me?

Viva Cartoons!

One post, asking for a these tapes, would have been enough.

DetectiveGriffin · 01-23-2003, 10:30 PM

Well, I think it's well worth putting in a video collection. The series is in mine, along with a lot of other happy 70's shows.

I liked tv when it was cute and funny and not about mindless boinking and x-treme reality crud.

friskyfantasia · 01-24-2003, 12:23 AM

Hi, Detective Griffin! It's refreshing to see yet another fan of the series, singing it's praises :-). I've been taped the episodes off the box, but was wondering if anyone knows whether or not Columbia House is possibly making any plans to release some volumes of the series. It has with Barney Miller, so if BM is out in VHS, then it can only be a matter of time before it's issued in DVD. WBK is certainly popular enough to hold it's own. So, i guess we just wait! As for Speedracer, there was no reply button next to your post, so my reply to you will be included in this one. If you've got TV Land, WBK is currently airing weekends on it. You can record them as they are shown. Hope this helps! Cassie
