Series you want to see on DVD

[Tom Cashel]

They're really good, too.

I want THE TRIPODS!!!

 

[Barendd Nobeard]

I just thought of one I really, really, want. More than anything. SCTV, especially the third season (I think) when it was SCTV Network 90, and the next season. Very fond memories of that show, especially the seasons with John Candy, Joe Flaherty, Eugene Levy, Andrea Martin, Rick Moranis, Catherine O'Hara, and Dave Thomas.

Dr. Tongue's 3-D House of Pancakes ("Would you like some more....syrup!?!"; co-starring Woody Tobias, Jr. as Bruno)
"Vikings and Beekeepers"
"Peter Pan" starring Divine
"Johnny LaRue's 'All Night Girls Pajama Party'"
Edith Prickley (esp. as Queen Elizabeth I in "Give 'em Hell, Bess" and the Annie Sullivan character in "Gangway for Miracles")
Count Floyd - Monster Chiller Horror Theater
Great White North ("Take off, hoser!")
Dusty Towne
The Jule Haalmeyer Dancers
Libby Wolfson and her musical stage show "I'm Taking My Head, and Screwing It On Right, and No Guy's Gonna Tell Me That It Ain't!" (co-starring Sue Bopper Simpson, the daughter of the Big Bopper)
The Sammy Maudlin Show (with hosting sidekick William B. Williams and perennial guest Bobby Bittman)
The People's Global Goldan Choice Awards episode
CCCP invasion episode (with shows like "What Fits Into Mother Russia?", "Hey, Yorgi!", and the show were Nikita Kruschev is re-incarnated as a tractor)

And finally, the piece de resistance, Lola Heatherton - "Bouncin' Back to You" episode (with The Tubes) and "Way to Go, Woman!" where she says: "I interview, investigate, and thoroughly involve myself with the five most influential women of our time--or anyone else's for that matter. I'm talking Mother Teresa, Maggie Trudeau, Sandra Day O'Conner, Lily Tomlin, and Charlene Tilton! Join me next week in India, as I rough it with Mother Teresa."

And who could forget Lola's catch phrase - "I want to BEAR YOUR CHILDREN!" - especially when she unknowingly said it to The Elephant Man.


I need this show in my life again.

Batman: TAS
Superman: TAS
Batman Beyond
Justice League
Samurai Jack
Dial 'M' for Monkey/Justice Friends

I love your whole list, Mog Elffoe, but the fact that you specifically mentioned Dial 'M' for Monkey tells me you've got taste.

 

[Brother Shatterstone]

I would like to add Playmakers (ESPN TV show) to my list but it will only be on their for a short time... I just got emailed about it's pending release in April.

 

[mmadsen]

I'll have to second Freakazoid (if only for the Toby Danger short, featuring The World's Largest Semiconductor), Thundarr ("Lords of Light!"), Thundercats ("Thunder, thunder, thundercats, ho-o!"), and Disney's Gargoyles.

No one has mentioned Pirates of Darkwater though!

For some reason the only re-runs I see are the episode where the station is taken over by the lettuce from space.

I'd like to add another vote for Strange Luck (HUGE fan of The Cutting Edge - for those unaware, a D.B. Sweeney flick that had Moira Kelly in tights as well!!!!) as well as a vote for something I haven't seen yet:

<-Dramatic Pause->

"Herman's Head"

I absolutely LOVED this show!!

The gal that plays Ross's wife on Friends (not the original, the second gal) played an assistant in the office by the name of Heddy (sp?), also had Yeardly Smith (I think, and again sp?), the voice of ....Oh no......Mental block......

Bart's sister on The Simpsons......

That one's gonna bother me.......

 

[KenM]

I don't know if its been mentioned, but the Wonder Women series from the 70's.

Zontar! Or, the complete title: "Zontar! Thing from Venus" - that even won the "People's Global Golden Choice Award" for best movie!

Natalie Cole was on that episode. And Hank Bain - Conrad Bain's brother.

Goodness, I just checked the IMDB, and in 1983, SCTV closed out the "Outstanding Writing in a Variety or Music Program" category at the Emmy awards. All five nominations were for this show. Wow. I don't put much stock in awards shows, but to close out a category is almost unheard of (although "The Cosby Show" once closed out the "Guest Actor in a Sitcom" category--Roscoe Lee Browne ("Box" from 'Logan's Run') won that year).
