My husband wants **Quincy** on DVD, but I’ve had to remind him that when he watched his beloved **McGuyver** on TV Land, he wondered what he saw in that show. I’ll second **Undeclared** , but I’m not holding my breath. ---

Has anyone mentioned [Now and Again](http://nowandagain.tktv.net/mainpage.html) yet? Because that _really_ needs to be on DVD. And there should have been at least a second season, too. (And third, and fourth, etc.) ---

Netflix doesn’t have it, and Amazon tells me “ **Availability: NOT YET RELEASED** : The studio is currently not producing this title on DVD…” [This](http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=617&item=6381193555&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW) is what I have. I found it at a Fry’s for $10. It appears to be a legit copy. ---

\*\*The Gong Show \*\* (maybe a “best of” set), \*\*Police Squad! \*\*, even more Dave Allen clips (although I haven’t bought the “best of” compilation that’s out now, but one disc would never be enough), and a very cheesy sci-fi/drama TV movie from around 1980 called **Goliath Awaits** , starring a young Mark Harmon. ---

Another Vote for: \*\*Brisco County Jr.(\*\*I just discovered this show, and it kicks ass. Bruce Campbell could read the phone book and it would be fun to watch. WHAT THE HELL IS TAKING YOU SO LONG, FOX?) **Black Books.** (I’ve fallen in love with this show since they’ve started showing it on BBC America, and I can’t wait to see Season 2 now). ---

When are they going to release the new _Battlestar Galactica_ on DVD? Hopefully just before Season 2 starts this summer… 😃 ---

I’ve been waiting a long time for two of my favorite movies to be released on DVD: [Metropolitan](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0100142/) [Das Schreckliche Mädchen](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0100557/) – a quick search tells me this was finally released in “DVD 9” format in February 2005. Now I have to find out if “DVD 9” will play on my USA-only player. ---

**The Phil Silvers Show**. I’d sell a kidney for this, but of course I felt the same way about Space 1999 until I actually watched them again… ---

> [@1010011010](#): > > [Rock’n’Rule](http://www.unearthedfilms.com/rockandrule.htm) I was just reading BJ Hiorns’s comic strip [Jackie’s Fridge](http://jackiesfridge.keenspace.com/), when I saw the following: > [@BJ Hiorns](#): > > News: Nelvana studios’ 1983 feature [Rock and Rule](http://www3.bc.sympatico.ca/jcannon/rocknrule/) will finally be released on DVD on June 7th! [Unearthed Films](http://www.unearthedfilms.com/) tackled the project, and I can’t wait to see the finished product. Eee! I’ve only read the comic book, so I also can not wait to see it. ---

The recent release of _The Nasty Girl_ (its USA title) is a region two release so unless you have a multi-region player (they’re cheap!), you’re out of luck. Sorry. Titles I want on DVD: _Voyager The Reflecting Skin Children of Nature Before the Rain_ Most of my wants have thankfully been released here or elsewhere. 🙂 ---
