Over a year ago we
brought you a big schedule full of
Fat Albert DVD release dates, but UrbanWorks hasn't kept to the dates on that list, and fans have been left wondering "when?" Now we have the answer, for one of the items on that list, in any case.
According to Ventura Distribution, owners of UrbanWorks,
Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids - Vol 3 will finally arrive on
May 2nd. Here is the description of the 2-disc set that they have provided:
Hey, Hey, Hey!!! Let's go back to the very beginning of what eventually became classic, American television. Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids - The Original Animated Series Vol.3 picks up where Vols. 1 & 2 left off with episodes #25-36 as they were broadcast on CBS. This 2-disc set features episodes from 1975 to 1976. Join Fat Albert, Rudy, Weird Harold, Mushmouth, Dumb Donald and the rest of the crew as they sing, laugh and rejoice their way into history. Also included: Bonus 12-track audio CD featuring original music from the animated series - Available for the first time!!!
This 265-minute release has an SRP of $19.99, according to the Ventura info. Other online retailers seem to show the list price as being five dollars higher, and we're not sure why, but at least Amazon.com has it right! And because of that,
Amazon's pre-order is priced right at just $13.99 discounted cost. We'll be back as soon as we can with cover art, so stay tuned!
