Yet another DVD set that I'll be getting the second it's available. I've loved this show for years, and now, I'll be able to watch the first season whenever I want...greatness.

Awesome news, Micheal.
I'm more excited for The Dukes of Hazzard coming out. And Quantum Leap. I might even pick up the A-Team. But Knight Rider? I doubt it. Still, I like the idea of these series being put out on DVD. I want my Miami Vice. NOW. Damn music licensing crap...
I'm sure someone will remember this...
Yes! Brilliance.
OMFG
Now THIS... THIS is worthy of its own thread. What a show.
If you are lying about this being released on DVD, I will kill you. This is, hands down, the best show that has ever aired on television.Quote:

With the original DVD release of Quantum Leap - The Pilot Episode being long out-of-print, fans of the show have longed for Universal Home Entertainment to bring the beloved series back to DVD in season sets.
We knew something was in-the-works last November, when reports surfaced that Deborah Pratt - who was heavily involved in the show - had mentioned in an interview that she was called in to do some work on the new home video version.
Now the waiting is over, and the countdown to the street date begins. This morning, Universal Home Video announced that Quantum Leap - Season 1 will make the leap home on June 8th. The nine hours of programming that made up the rookie season - including the pilot episode "Genesis" from the out-of-print item - will arrive on 2 dual-sided DVDs, at a $59.98 SRP.
Right now details are thin, with no details on the specs, no extras mentioned so far (though we're sure there will be some, since Ms. Pratt participated on the release), and no cover art to show you yet. Still, it's great to know that Sam, Al, and Ziggy will be coming back home this summer, in one of the most-requested releases here at the site (in the top 10!). Stay tuned, and we'll be back just as soon as Universal circulates the remaining information about this box set.
UPDATE (1/18):
Universal has now given us a tiny preview of the cover art. And we do mean tiny...it doesn't get any bigger than this, at least not yet. We'll be back later with something bigger, but for now, check it out:
Actually, the latest news is that instead of 2 double sided dvds, the nine hours will be on 3 single sided dvds, so no flippers and there will be artwork on the discs.
Oh, here ya go:

We finally have information on the extras for the season 1 set.
"A Kiss With History: Remembering Quantum Leap"
Series stars Scott Bakula and Dean Stockwell, along with creator Don Bellisario, share stories about creating their groundbreaking series. The featurette will take viewers behind the scenes of Quantum Leap's first year, including stories about Bakula's extensive and demanding training, Stockwell's wild wardrobe and fans' invaluable contribution to the show.
"Quantum Knowledge"
Scott Bakula introduces each episode with a bit of trivia (guest stars, special effects, training).
The set is now coming on three discs instead of two. They changed the disc configuration around, but the content remains the same. Look for it on June 8, at an SRP of $59.98. Cover art is here.
YUSSS!
I'll be making Ziggy noises all day long.
I'd like to add that Knight Rider is also an incredible show, fuck the haters.
Michael Knight had an evil twin brother complete with a goatee, pimp coat AND cane. BRILLIANT!
http://dvd.ign.com/articles/506/506044p1.html - some new info, including a $60 price point. I loved the Knight Rider 2000 TV movie, and really dug the car in it, which I loved seeing even more as a prototype design in Motor Trend. www.TVShowsonDVD.com has a little more info on it in their news post on it.
Here's the cover art, in thumbnail form.
