Amazon-Exclusive Nickelodeon Series DVDs?!

Nice to see some of those Series get releases, even in this fashion. But, of course, retail releases would've been better.

The fact that they aren't retail means nothing to me as I get most of my DVD's from amazon. You can't beat their prices (usually), free shipping, and pre0ordered DVD's almost always get delivered the day of release.

These are burn on demand releases, which means the quality should be garbage, but I'll take anything at this point to get Doug out of legal purgatory and to the masses.

I would love to have Doug and Rocko, I wish Ahhh! Real Monsters was on that list too

Hey Arnold! Awesome, where's season one tho?

Doug and Hey Arnold would be mine. My favorites growing up.

well I'm really happy about the rocko's modern life, even though it doesn't appear to be the complete series. I've been waiting pretty much since the show was canceled for those.

I might scoop up the Rocko's Modern Life sets.

It's a step in a direction. Not necissarily a bad one or a good one. But a step. On the plus side, this may get Viacrap to actually commercially release these and COMPETE with people illegally loading things on You tube for a competitive price. On the negative side, only a handful of people will buy these, especially with the less than modest prices, and they'll figure, "no! No one wants to watch the classics, guess we gotta keep pumping out Naked Brothers Band and Save the Wonderpets crap" (I would have said Spongebob, but I like that one).

I really think they should do what they did with Zim and sublicense it to another company, but then they have that idiotic argument that they'll lose money they aren't even trying to get.

I would love to get Doug, Hey Arnold, and Rocko's Modern Life on dvd...but I want complete season sets (not "the best of" stuff) and I want REAL dvds...not Amazon.com's homemade versions which will have poor quality and will not last long.

Kind of pricey too, for fake dvds....

I'll wait for the real deals, thank you very much.

Something tells me there won't be any real deals. Unless these do well enough to warrent Nick to sell actually DVD's in season sets with special features or something. I doubt it. Mainly because other than Spongebob and to a lesser extent Avatar, they only care about their loud preschool Nick Jr. programs.

They have to be pretty blind to think they wouldn't sell well, the old Nicktoons are easily some of the best of our time.

To say nothing of how well Invader Zim sold...

Zim was basically licensed out to a third party, cuz nick pretty much didn't care. The problem is there IS money in it. They don't think it will sell well if they release it, but they could stand to lose the profits if they sublicense it. it's a lose lose situation.

They don't even offer season sets of CURRENT shows except Spongebob... Avatar maybe, considering they basically put the volumes into a set...

There is also recent news of Fairly OddParents starting Season-Part releases. Though it's beginning with Season 6 Vol. 1.

Glad to see Rocko's Modern Life but "the best of?" Why not a season set? Anyone know if there's an episode listing for it somewhere? Though no Kenan & Kel or All That :(

To anyone worried about the quality:

This reviewer says it's pretty good but disappointing only due to lack of extras.

That review's good enough for me.

Hey Arnold, Doug, and Rocko will be added to my collection after all!:D

I'm thinking about getting some of these too.

Hey Mandi, when/if you do get the Rocko DVDs mind posting what episodes they have? Since they're "Best Of" types, I'd like to know what eps. are on them beforehand.

It'll be quite a while before I get these dvds, my wish list is long!

Oh, man, they got Ned's Declassified. <3 that show along with the classics.
