Sctv

[Brian Ringler]

I just found out that a 5 disc set of sctv comes out June 8.  now I just need to find a good way to waste 3 months

I hear ya! I only wish they were releasing the whole series at once-- This way, we have to wait to see any Ed Grimley or Bob & Doug!

Still, I ain't complaining-- The fact that SCTV is coming to DVD, and that they're doing full episodes instead of a "best-of" treatment, is enough to make my year!

This will be a true treasure. I have fond memories of watching SCTV late Saturday Nights around 1980.

Are they going by season, or just a bunch of random episodes ala MST3K?

It's supposedly going to be the season where the shows were 90 minutes.  There's some classic long-form satire there, although I'd really love the show's first season, when Harold Ramis was a member and the budgets were about ten dollars a show.  Canadian.

The box features not the entire season, but nine of the 90 minute shows.  Press release here:

 They should just air the show after Conan like they used to.They did before that Carson Daly tool started his show.
