I just got mine too! I surprised the crap out of me! But, yay! I watch the first few and it’s just as good as I remember. They really missed out when they cancelled this show.

Holy crap, this show was great. It was Must-See TV in our house… now if only they would release another past favorite, The Powers That Be, on DVD. Or at least rerun it somewhere. And maybe a special package of Charro episodes of The Love Boat!

Actually, I ordered it off Amazon.com (as it wasn’t available on the .ca web site). But I think now if anyone orders it you’ll get it right away.

Vance – Sadly, I don’t think the show was ahead of its time. I just think it was one of the many hollywood behind-the-scenes shows (ala ACTION, THE COMEBACK etc) that only a small segment of the population – a really smart and intelligent segment – care for.

That certainly sucks. It must be the Canadian Amazon site that was delayed as mine was in stock when I ordered my copy a couple of days ago. I should get it by the end of the week, I can’t wait.

One of the best comedies on television in the last ten years. So funny and so well performed. I think they should bring it back as it is all still so relevant and funny. This behind the scenes look at a television show didn’t have to be preachy and insulting to its audience like some shows in recent memory!

I can’t wait to watch it on DVD and hear the commentaries.

This show was totally great but I think slightly ahead of its time. Irene Molloy now has been in two great sitcoms cut too short (Andy Richter Controls the Universe)
