I knew for several yrs that it was only a matter of time.....it would be financially foolish not to release it.

Hopefully uncut and properly re-mastered (look what they did with Dallas and the crappy re-mastering , shame on them......not released by WB but still :x

Should be on blu , less discs.....but they have to think expenses so that might not happen.

Awesome news. I love this show. Blu-ray would be cool, but at least this isn't a show that was actually broadcast in HD, like Nick TMNT.

RaphAndDonnie 01-15-2014 06:20 PM

:D Oh man if it really does then I can't wait to pick it up.

This show was never released on DVD before? Strange, I seem to recall seeing a DVD of this show in stores...unless that was just the movie.

The movie spinoff was released twice on DVD. The first release was in 2001 and the second was in 2008. It has been readily available at Wal-Mart throughout the years. I am not sure how the rights of the movie were worked out but it alone has been legally available. At comic conventions and Toy and Hobby Shows I constantly see it for sale, pirated versions of course I passed on the multiple oporrunities. I am glad to see it is atleast available in legal form if i ever so chose to purchase the series itself as I have had the DVD of the movie for years now.

Edit:
The two versions are essentially the same just a different cover. The second issued version was simpl to accompany the Blueray version.

Awesome. I used to watch this with my bro and our neighbor all the time.

Nice. Can't say i can afford to buy them all, but i might pick up a few.

Fantastic news. An imprint on just about every 20th century kid's childhoods.

What do you guys love best about this show? For me, it's the fact that it was intentionally cheesy, the wacky plot lines, the comic book style fighting (BAM! POW! BIFF!), the 60s feel of it, and finally, a light-hearted Batman.:D

TheCanadiandrome 07-07-2014 04:07 PM

All i gots to say is....

I love the cheese. And the insane lines. And just how crazy it is in general.

Blu ray and bonus features, huh?

Yup. SOLD!

I watched this show ALOT back in the day on Family Channel, and later, the FX channel, and will gladly fork over the cash to pick up a more proper release of the entire series. Even though the one I obtained back in 2008 is pretty top notch for DVD.

Looking forward to the upgrade.
