Classic TV Sightings, DVD Updates
Welcome to yet another day of news. Did you know we are already in syndication? Who needs 100 episodes, or posts. :-)
Not much to update today but I hope everyone has also viewed our second new feature to the website - the SitcomsOnline.com DVD Reviews Page. Yes, we never actually had a page for our reviews, we just listed them on the main page and on the forums. Now this will be easier for you and us.
I have more news for fellow New Yorkers. If you didn't know, yesterday WPIX aired a nice two-hour block in the morning from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m of Bewitched and The Odd Couple. Now, they will air even more Bewitched and an episode each of The Jeffersons and Taxi on Sunday, September 4. WPIX is really good to classic TV. To view the line-up for that morning click here.
And one another note. AmericanLife TV will be adding Crime Story to its Friday night line-up starting October 7. It will air 9 p.m. and 10 p.m.
Now for some DVD news! We have a scoop. It is first being posted here. In addition to Fantasy Island: Season 1, Sony Pictures Home Entertainment will shelve out a rare program--The Johnny Cash Show on November 15. It doesn't seem it will be a seasonal set, because Sony says it is titled, The Johnny Cash Show Collection. Sony has had a TV DVD poll and that show is winning by a landslide, but I think some heavy duty cheating was going on there. I'm not sure if Sony is releasing this just because it is winning in the poll, or it was already on their radar map before the poll started. I know there are a lot of people waiting for some other shows on their poll such as Benson, The Facts of Life, Silver Spoons and One Day at a Time, but I have no information on any of those yet. Though, One Day at a Time is probably the most likely of those to come out in the closing days of 2005. I really wish I had a sitcom to announce, but not today. As always, don't take Cash as something official until it is officially announced, which will be probably in two weeks or so.
One other note, don't forget to watch Beautiful People tonight on ABC Family Channel. Don't ask why I'm promoting this, but just click here and you'll help me a lot.
If there is any other "breaking news" or anything noteworthy, I'll edit it in on this post. So keep checking back.
