Grace, I have a good scanner, so I promise if they give us any new pics, I'll share them here, OK? :cheering:

A total non-event as far as I'm concerned. I've had DVD's since...forever, and seeing as there's no 'extras' I'm not jumping out of my skin.

I'll ask for the DVD for my birthday in May because no doubt it'll be expensive, but I'm only buying it to bump up sales (which I'm sure will be abysmal here in Oz).

I'm still really cheesed off we didn't get any extras. Would a few bloopers have killed them? Some deleted scenes? None of those things would have required actor involvement. It's just really tightwad of WB. :slappy:

:hug: Thank you, DSR. I'm soooooo excited. :woohoo:

I haven't seen the last 4 eps on a proper-size screen - they didn't put them on TV here, so I've only seen them on YouTube. :sadface: I had five ep's on tape (VCR) but they are totally worn out. :roll: Couldn't buy them from Unbox, (or whatever it's called). It is going to be so wonderful to finally see all the eps, and without ads!!! :yahoo:

It may be a non-event for some, but I know how excited you are about actually getting your hands on the DVDs, Phoenix. After all those long months of waiting, unable to see the episodes ANYWHERE in reasonable quality, I can only imagine how painful the drought has been.

I expect to be able to hear your squee from half way around the world.

We'll hold the fort while you busy yourself with Mick and the gang :).

Thank you, Red. :hug: Yes, you'll definitely hear me squeeing as soon as I get out of the store on Wednesday morning. :snicker:

I'll take a 15 min break after every 3rd, (or 4th), episode, and check in long enough to gush about all the wonderful Moonlight moments we all adore. :cheer: My neighbours will be wondering why I keep sighing, "Oh, Mick..." :hearts:

I'm so excited for you!!! That's so annoying they didn't show the last four over there. The difference between VHS and DVD is so startling. I was watching a movie the other day I only have on VHS and it was so faded.

One other thing I noticed with the DVDs....the sound quality was much better....even better than the original broadcast. When I watched 'Fever' on the DVD, for the first time, I heard the baby's heartbeat....never caught that before....

anyway, dear Phee, sit back and enjoy :champs: we'll all be 'listening' for you!!

Thanks, ladies. :ghug:

Cassy & DSR. Now I'm even more excited, (if that's possible). :dizzy: The VCR tapes are so worn :whistle: they are mostly audio and visual static, now. :sigh:

JIMS, I swear I almost used the see-saw for Josef, but changed at the last moment...

You mean you've watched them more than a couple times? My husband keeps asking me why I need to watch again... "you already know what happens" he says. " I forget, just like I forgot to get your dry cleaning..." I say.

I am so excited for you Phoenix!!
The wait must be torturous for you. Even though I didn't immediately watch the dvd when I purchased it, I am almost ashamed to admit how many times I held it, opened it, looked at the pictures in it and generally squealed with happiness. Wait, why would I even be embarassed to share that here? We (almost) all feel that way!

It was a huge event for me, the first time I sat down and put that dvd it. To be able to watch those episodes at will, pause, rewind, pause again---yeah, it's a great feeling, and one that you will soon be experiencing!

*LOL* Sounds like my hubby..he asks me, "don't you ever get tired of looking at the same old pictures of these guys" I said, "would you get tired of looking at the Sistene Chapel, the Mona Lisa, the Last Supper?? These guys are works of art too!"

He didn't get it. Maybe it's because most of the pics have their clothes on... :whistle:
