Bad News

Apart from Andre Norton...

Time Life is no longer producing the Muppet Show DVDs. The current supply is limited and most are sold out. The complete set is no longer available on DVD, although there are some VHS sets still available. To see what's still left, check here. I ordered the five that are still available on DVD. I guess now it's just frequent checking on eBay. Dammit. So much for not spending money this month...

Oh no! I don't have them all on DVD yet, just tape! Ack!

Buy 'em now while they're cheap. 'Cos you'll be paying upwards of $25 per on eBay. *sigh*

Must do some digging to find out if, say, Disney has any plans on rereleasing them in Special Eds or something

If anything ever happens to Larry Niven I don't want to know. Really.

I've got a couple of his books here that are unread because I know that someday he'll be gone and if I then read these last books I know they'll be no new Niven books ever. If I don't read them then they'll always be more new ones that I haven't read. I know that sounds a little crazy, but it's true.

Does that have anything to do with Disney having bought all the rights to the Muppets?

The Henson estate sold out the Muppets to Disney.

No clue. I just know I'm snapping up any copies I find for less than $20 on half.com and ebay.

Eh. I don't really care about the opening credits being cut. And I'm happy to get any episodes I can!
