And now for our final day on the Sony TV DVD news report. Today I will reveal the other returning sitcom for Sony on DVD. You know the world don't move to the beat of just one drum, when Sony releases the complete second season of Diff'rent Strokes on January 31! After well over a year we finally get the second season of this popular '80s sitcom with Gary Coleman. And you better make sure you buy a copy (or two!) so we can speed it up next time around. Now, remember this is not official information. You will just have to wait and see if this is indeed the official date when Sony announces it and TVShowsonDVD.com will have that information.
So some people are wondering on some other Sony TV DVDs that have not seen subsequent seasons in a while. 227 season two was on the radar but Sony has put that on TBD, just like they did for One Day at a Time (which hasn't come out at all yet). Sony still has not put a decision up, as far as I know, for Who's the Boss? season two. And I spoke to them about Maude, it is indeed in the works, they told me they will pair it up with a future All in the Family release, but I'm sure it won't be in time for season 5 on January 3. Maybe season 6? But... actually instead of All in the Family they told me "Archie Bunker," could that mean Archie Bunker's Place paired up with Maude? Only time will tell...
