The Shout! Factory Appreciation Thread

Adamantium · 12-18-2008, 04:23 PM

Let's give it up for this DVD company. They are releasing shows that many of us thought would not come out:

California Dreams
Mr. Belvedere
My Two Dads
Rhoda
Blossom

Plus, they've picked up many shows that were abandoned, like Son of the Beach and Adam-12.

With the recent pick up of Rhoda, I wouldn't be surprised if Shout at least tries to release the rest of The Bob Newhart Show.

I LOVE THIS COMPANY!!!!!!

Cool! That would be great if they'd release the rest of the Bob Newhart Shows and I'd definitely pick up those Rhoda dvds.

Pavan · 12-18-2008, 05:51 PM

Not to mention Room 222, Spin City, Sports Night and even Malcolm & Eddie now.

Now all they need is Small Wonder, Out of this World and The Wonder Years!

The SportsNight anniversary release from Shout Factory is AWESOME, and let's not forget, they brought us the DVDs of Freaks & Geeks too!

DVDFreaker · 12-18-2008, 06:38 PM

I have to give thumbs down to Shout Factory because they never add closed captioning or english subtitles which I can't even enjoy the show because of lack of closed captioning or english subtitles

catlover79 · 12-18-2008, 07:28 PM

They deserve credit for giving us the shows we want!!

ikhuri · 12-18-2008, 07:47 PM

Does anyone know about the possibility of Shout Factory leasing those titles?

Diff'rent Strokes
Silver Spoons
Sanford
Grady
Gimme a Break
Double Trouble

I'm a regular at the Shout forums. They are indeed legends! Love everything from their artwork to bonus features. Let's not forget how they fought to release all 4 seasons of Punky Brewster!

Can't wait for Mr Belvedere and don't forget how their continuing with the Simon & Simon releases. I'll be getting season 2 in Febuary 09.

All we need is Small Wonder and Eight is Enough!

I love Shout! Factory. They're pretty much the only company that listens to its fans. There were many posts on their forums asking for Mr Belvedere. Low and behold it's announced it will be coming. Many Punky fans stated how they wanted the final two seasons. Season three didn't sell as well as expected but they didn't let fans down and released the fourth & final season. They're the only company that answers it's consumers on the message boards even when they're complaining & airing their grievances. They give explanations for why subsequent seasons of shows aren't planned for release. Look at the WB chats. They give the same answers over and over year after year. If only the major studios would follow Shout! Factory's lead.
Shout! Factory rules!

I would love if they licensed the final two seasons of the Fresh Prince and the final 4 of George Lopez! It would be amazing if they got the rights to Family Matters and some of the '90's Nick shows.

I definitely give Shout! Factory a thumbs up! I can't believe My Two Dads, Blossom and California Dreams are actually coming to DVD. I'll be first in line to buy them on the days they come out. I might pick up Mr. Belvedere as well.

And don't forget last year's amazing My So-Called Life set .

bluthree · 12-19-2008, 09:15 AM

Yeah Shout is great. I thought they did a great job with Punky Brewster. I'm also happy with The Father Know's Best DVD's. Hopefully Shout will release season 3 soon?
Theres still some shows that I have yet been released on DVD. I still hoping Webster will come to DVD some day?
And how about Street Hawk?

Robert 13 · 12-19-2008, 10:30 AM

Wow! They have a lot of shows coming out. None are of interest to me but it gives me hope that they may pick something up that I am waiting for. Here's hoping they pick up:

Hazel
The Patty Duke Show
It's A Living
Flo
Alice
What's Happening Now!!
