Has anyone else been keeping tabs on this? From what I've read, the whole show will be coming to dvd at the end of Novemeber and you have to get it through Time Life.

The show will come in something like 25 tins, housed inside a ghostbuster house.

Special features

* All episodes uncut and digitally restored
* Unaired pilot
* Five documentaries
* Booklets including episode synopsis, trivia, and art for each episode
* 21 on camera commentaries
* 86 episode introductions
* Scripts and storyboards
* Interviews with writer J. Michael Straczynski, voice artists Maurice LaMarche, Laura Summer, Kath Soucie, and others

I don't know how I feel about paying 180 bucks for this. But I def do want.

$180 isn't bad for about 140 episodes plus a ton of bonus features. I wouldn't pay for it but I know Elkino will be buying it so I'll probably at least watch all the bonus features.

They had some code back in september where you could preorder it for 150

Oh shit! The pilot, too!

Loans can wait a bit. This needs buying.

Fixed.

Don't you motherfuckers have "the internet"? Watch a couple of episodes of this thing and see if you really want to sit through 180 of them.

It's an ok show, but there's nothing to it that makes me want to watch more than one or two episodes.

Slimer's voice makes me wish for death, and Peter is Garfield. Come on.

You should really save sixty bucks and buy this show instead. It has songs about marbles and Franz Kafka.

The writers of The Onion even do a commentary on an episode. That's because the show is good.

I fully support this plan of action. I only remember a few episodes from my childhood, but I'd rather keep the good memories I had of this show rather than waste $180 and realize the show was better left in my memories. Home Movies FTW!
