Taping this show is SO complicated! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Taping Happy Days is so complicated especially of the fact that the show has over 200 episodes. I try to tape every episode in a rotation, but it always manages that my VRC gets screwed up or I did something wrong. My gosh, it's going to be forever to get this entire series on tape.

I know what you mean. I've have screwed up myself while taping HD. I still don't have every episode. It looks like it's going to be a long time before we see HD on VHS or DVD.

It took me three years to get the entire collection on tape. I started to tape them in EP (Extended Play) and then decided that if the show was worth taping, it was worth taping in SP (Short Play) for better quality. Try keeping track of about 84 video tapes and travel from place to place. I lost a tape and now I only have 254 shows. I'm missing show #150 the Berlesque Show.

Actually, it was simple for me to tape the series. I took advantage of when HD first came to TV Land, and completed in in seven months. If TVL didn't have that two-month hiatus in March and April, I would've finished in five months. Glad did too, because they really screw up as far as multi-part episodes are concerned.
