What do all of you think about Maude coming out on DVD? Do you think it help any with the Maude pilot episode and the cousin Maude episode part of the all in the family season 2 dvd set?? Did anyone buy the all in the family dvd set for the 2 Maude episodes?? I know i did

I also think if the all in the family season 2 dvd set did good in sales that would be a + for Maude coming out on DVD

I don't think a Maude DVD would generate sales. I just can't see people buying because it was rarely watched in syndication.

I'd buy it and I have 130 episodes of it. I think it would do well - I get a lot of emails about the Maude tapes I have, requests and stuff. You never know.

Really? I just can't see people buying that show in Best Buy. And I'm not saying that because I donb't like the show, but i just can't see it selling.

A lot of the people who email me are people my age (30's) who are fans of other older shows (WKRP, Jeffersons, All In The Family). I really think if it was available on DVD people would buy it.

No, I paid over $100 for them but I don't charge that much.

I just got my Maude tapes from her and they are fantastic. I'm very pleased with the quality of the tapes.

She is a wonderful seller/trader, I find her prices are extremely fair and I highly recommend her.

Just because a show is not widely syndicated doesn't always mean it will
not sell well on DVD. Look at Good Times or What's Happening. Neither were big hits in syndication, but I've seen DVD box sets of both.

Also, look at it another way. Perhaps fans of a show are more likely to buy it on DVD when they can't turn on their televisions and see it for free.

I have all the episodes of Maude on tape, but I would gladly pay for the high quality and no editing that DVD offers.

Yes they are.

I think that if Maude was to be released on DVD, that the show would do very well in sales; I just think people are interested in shows from that particular era and besides that it was a great show and Bea Arthur does have a large fan base..I know if a Maude DVD is released I am going to buy it....
