Last June
saw the release - as a Best Buy exclusive - of
Welcome Back, Kotter - Television Favorites. It was always pretty much understood that it would release to other retailers later on, and we guessed at the time that this would occur in September. That didn't happen then, or since, and just a few days ago I found myself in a discussion at The Home Theater Forum, with others who wondered exactly what the situation was with
Kotter. Sitcoms Online's News Blog writer, Pavan Badal, beat me to the punch in asking Warner about this, and
found out the following:
WHV just told me that we can expect "TV Favorites" sets of Welcome Back, Kotter; The Drew Carey Show; Night Court all on February 28, 2006! The first two currently are Best Buy exclusives, but they wont be by Feb. 28, as they will be available nationwide!
Thanks for the info, Pavan, and congrats on the scoop! As to the
Drew Carey Show and
Night Court "Television Favorites" DVDs also mentioned, please see our separate news posted for more details. And stay tuned for more info about all of these when Warner makes their official announcement...presumably pretty darn soon, with a
February 28th release date. Please stand by!
