On DVD? Sometimes they’re re-released as improved prints or special editions. I don’t know in this particular case.

**Yellowtail** , \*Double Indemnity \* and \*Topsy-Turvy \* (I think) are both out now on DVD. Bare-Bone editions, though.

There’s a 2-disc special edition of \*The Sting \* coming out in September. I’m drooling.

That’s out (here at least). The other movie is The Cat Returns. I wish it was sold as a set and not three seperate movies though.

Mine is Ghost in the Shell Volume 7 (I was kinda hoping they’d make the last volume 6 episodes, and was annoyed to find out I’d have to wait two more months to get the end of the first season). Also I can’t wait for the Second Gig, as I haven’t seen that part yet. Hope it’s as good as the first season.

Ah yes, I want _The Real Ghostbusters_\* on DVD as well!

\*Not to be confused with _Filmation’s Ghostbusters_, that other cartoon with the two dorks and their talking gorilla.

Yes. However, as I loved the purple babe, it _is_ to go with “every freaking 80s show”, as per my last post. 😛

**Summer Stock** - was scheduled, but pulled for some reason.  
**Unfaithfully Yours** - Rex Harrison version, not the Dudley Moore version  
**Homefront** - the complete series  
**Quantum Leap** - seasons 4 & 5  
**WKRP in Cincinnati** - complete series, uncut with original music (which I doubt will ever happen, but a girl can dream)
