And the review states that these are the original unedited episodes, not the hacked-to-hell Lifetime syndication versions!!!!

 

[Matlock]

What exactly was edited?

 

[teiresias]

The opening credits was edited and shortened (the reviewer in the review isn't sure if the original credits are used on this DVD though, but the original credits played the entire "Thank You for Being a Friend Song" whereas the syndicated version has the song obviously cut, so I don't know why it's so hard to tell if it's the original or not), and the episodes themselves have material cut out of them - a common occurrance when a series is sold into syndication to allow more time for commercials.

One problem with the Will & Grace season sets has been that many of the episodes are the cut syndicated versions rather than the full-length, original broadcast versions, so it's nice when a company takes the care to make sure the original episodes are on the disc in their entirety.

 

[Matlock]

Ah, I was assumed it was edited for content, not time.

 

[White Man]

What are the prices on these sets? Extras? Golden Girls rocks the catwalk.

 

[teiresias]

Not much in the way of extras. The review states the MSRP is $49.99.

Damnit, couldn't they have paid Rue McLanahan like 50 bucks to do a couple drunken commentaries? Or at least incleded a CD of her talking dirty for 70 minutes, in-character?

had you? I'm being quite serious with regard to the status of this show.

Let it go, teiresias. These breeder mouth-breathers clearly do not know the pleasures of Lifetime binges.

 

[Minotauro]

Anyone know if the episode with the Tarantino cameo (before it would be a cameo) is included?

It's all about Rue McClanahan. I remember seeing Starship Troopers in the theater and being stoked when she turned up in her bit part.

You know... that cover is awesome. And the show was great as well.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Thank you Teirisias...not for posting this news...but for being a friend.
