I always enjoyed Doogie... but I already have all 4 seasons in my collection.

[Achim]

I didn't order the set... because I already own it

I remember seeing parts of this (a bunch of episodes from season 1 and 2, I think) when I was a teenager. The DVDs (I bought them partly because Pete had them already at the time ; although not yet all 4, I think).

Especially over the course of the four seasons I find it interesting to see how the character develops. While the first season(s) concentrate more on the problem of this genius doctor being held back by his teenage body, the later episodes shift the focus a little bit. If you liked it when it was on TV, I think you'll find it worth a revisit.

I did! And added Blue Harvest Limited Edition, and The Freakin' Sweet Collection, which I read are the 2 missing item from the Freakin's Sweet Party Pack.. the best part of it all? It all came UNDER the price of the single Party Pack on any Canadian retailer, and that's including shipping to Canada!

(ok, customs have not taken their share yet)

[Achim]

Must... resist...

I am planning to make use of the 20% sale at DD, so I cannot make any other purchases at this point...

[lyonsden5]

wow... sold out already. I've never seen one sell out that fast. 

[Najemikon]

Bugger! I saw the link at work and thought I'd grab it as soon as I got home. One hour later, at home... "SOLD OUT"... 

[RossRoy]

Guess I got it pretty much just in time.. 

[Najemikon]

 

That's some voo doo, for yoo, mo-foo! For stealing MY Family Guy boxset. Dammit.

Any Beatles fans out there?

The DVD Alone can be purchased for around $24.00. This "box set" is priced for $169.99 at Best Buy. Information on just what is in the set has been hard to find but it looks as though you get some lobby cards, a replica poster, a booklet with notes from Lester and Martin Scorsese, a reproduction of Lester's original script and a 60-page photo book.




I grabbed one to give as a gift for my Sister-in-law. Huge Beatles fan
