Merry Christmas, for those who celebrate it! We have a bit of holiday news for you today. Our gift to you is the word of Universal's confirmation that
Columbo - Season 2 WILL be released in 2005. It's been talked about, but now Universal is saying it's on the slate. We just don't know "when" yet.
It's one of many titles we'll be mentioning from this studio as Christmas presents to our readers, both today and on the day after ("Boxing Day"). But we should mention that there are some ad inserts (the kind enclosed with recent TV Show releases from the studio), along with some web rumors that talk about the timeframe of several of these 2005 Universal TV-to-DVD releases. However, when we asked the studio about this, we were told that no timeframes are set in stone...and that March in particular is a month full of change. So disregard any schedules you've heard so far. "March" comes up with a lot of the titles, but so far
Murder, She Wrote is the only Universal TV title absolutely confirmed for DVDs in March.
We'll have the real, bona fide dates for you just as soon as Universal nails them down; stay tuned for more info. And a special Merry Christmas to Parker Clack, co-owner of the Home Theater Forum, who really wanted to hear this news!
