The long-awaited
April 21st release date for
Rhoda - Season1 on DVD is almost here. Shout! Factory has already given outl the details of this release in their official
press release, and now they've sent over a sneak preview of the set with several video clips. We have 3 of them for you, available in either Windows Media or Quicktime format. I've already had the pleasure of watching the entire set, thanks to a early copy of it sent over by Shout! Factory.
There has been some talk around the 'net of a couple of issues with the set, and I won't claim that it's a perfect representation of the original broadcast. However, I definitely enjoyed what was there, and I honestly do recommend the set to any
Rhoda fan.People who have never watched the show should also give it a try! Speaking to a couple of the folks close to the project, I'm convinced that Shout! made the best release they could with the materials and situations they were provided with (no one there asked me to say that, by the way...I'm volunteering it, based on my own experience with the show; hard-core fans may disagree). In the event that sales of
Season 1 supports further releases, they are brainstorming ways to possibly make improvements to the follow-up sets. No promises, of course, but it's on their minds. Let's hope we do see more; this show was way too good to allow it to get stalled on DVD!
Windows Media: [Clip 1] - [Clip 2] - [Clip 3]
