RE: I want my JemTV! JEM and the Holograms!
Couldn't agree more - this series will sell fantastically! The Rhino sets were released a long time ago before most fans even knew about the boxset. Again the fact it was never completed will also bode well for it!

Well, lets hope we get the DVDs, the fans know about them -- and all the episodes are released this time around. So I hope lots of people add to this post so Shout! can see that we love JEM! And if you love jem, come to the 5th annual Jemcon jemcon.org

Jem rules!  This is still a great show, and I totally feel it has relevance in 2009.  It was popular back in the 80's and it is becoming even more popular today.

There is a huge craving for the complete Jem DVD series, the fans want them, but as Riot said the Jem fans around the world want them all too.

This is a great time in television for Jem to come back.  It was highly moral, it never talked down to the kids, and was just so much fun (even for the boys).  Jem making a come back would be "Only The Beginning," and the revival would be "Like A Dream."

RE: I want my JemTV! JEM and the Holograms!
Jem would be the perfect addition to Shout! -- Jem was everything 80's. She had the 80's music videos -- 3 per episodes She had fashion -- lots of outrageous 80's designs She had the drama -- fun kids soapara that brought you back every episodes to see what happened next. She had the dual personality thing -- the 80's cartoon cliche, you couldn't have serviced the 80's without at least 2 personality Now today it seems like every popular show, magazine, pop star, etc., has made a reference to loving Jem. Jem fans have come put of the wood work -- and I haven't meet a person male or female, gay or straight that lived from 1985-1992 that didn't watch a love the cartoon. Almost 25 years later it's not only okay to be Jem fan -- it's also really cool. Be Truly Outrageous! and Shout! for JEM

JEM would be more popular today than she was in the 80's, in my opinion. I've seen the reactions from my niece and my daughter over JEM and all things JEM-related and I think it would be a VERY wise decision for Hasbro to bring her back- not just the DVDs but the dolls as well, and hopefully a movie!

RE: I want my JemTV! JEM and the Holograms!
All Jem fans have been anxiously awaiting the release of more Jem! We especially hope for a complete and full DVD set! Rhino's mistake in not finishing the series could be Shout Factory's gain. I work at an elementary school and Jem is popular amoung today's Hannah Montana crowd! When I mention it the kids are interested and want to know more and the children that I have shown the show to LOVE IT! My 8 year old niece keeps begging me for Jem dolls. She doesn't understand that Jem took place in the 80s and the toys are rare. If only Jem stuff were everywhere! I wish the series could be rereleased for us adults and for the kids who would love it too. I am positive Jem fans will buy the show - especially if we get new extras and a complete series! Interviews/commentary is always fun and I'm sure Christy Marx and Samantha Newark would participate. It would also be great to track down some more cast members. I know I would not have to think twice about buying anything Jem!

I would die a thousand fangirl deaths if I could get Jem on DVD - the entire show, this time.  Never mind that I already have the Rhino DVDs - I'm more than willing to buy them all over again, especially if they have more special features and commentary and such. (Something like what BCI did with He-Man... oh my god, my brain would explode with joy.) 

Jem is totally worth it!!

I agree, I already own the Rhino DVDs but I would totally buy new releases because the audio on a few episodes of the Rhino DVDs was messed up.  I was a preschool teacher for a few years and all of the kids LOVED Jem, so I know that Jem would be more popular now than ever!  PLEASE make a complete series release!

I'd like to see the entire series released on DVD someday. I'm not all that concerned about extras unless its something we didn't see in the release that was done by Rhino. I'm mostly concerned with the quality of the episodes and that they make sure that the colors come out right this time. The quality of those Rhino sets was terrible and I'm more than ready for a proper release. I also want to see the few episodes released toward the end of the series that never made it onto DVD at all. Let me throw out my poor, used VHS tapes!!!

There's so much that can still be done.
Let's not forget JEM is one of the few musical series in the TV history.
Music is a very important aspect of this show and it's crazy Rhino didn't contact composer Anne Bryant to explain how our favourite songs were created and included in the episodes.
Songs should be available in stereo, possibly effects-free and in karaoke version as well.

I LOVE the idea of Karaoke effect added to the DVD's. I think that would be simple to add - there has to be instrumental versions out there somwhere since they used them for the cassettes.

Plus I know it would be a HUGE success, look how many people do karaoke at JemCon each year!

I would love to see Jem on DVD as well!  I was so sad when Rhino never put out the final DVD set, especially since my favorite episodes were the ones that didn't make it to DVD.

Honestly, I'd be happy with just quality versions of the entire run of the show, but special features that might nice are more interviews with the people involved in making the show, and its music!  Information about the toy line would be neat as well - commercials for the dolls, that sort of thing.  I liked the commentaries and interviews on the original set, so more along those lines would be cool.

I own the two Rhino sets, but I would absolutely buy new sets as well.

If not, they could use the Music&Effect track, aka international track. That's available for sure.
But, in that case, sound effects would be mixed with music...

They should definitely think about what extras would make sense in a re-release of JEM on dvd. I think bonus mp3 tracks would be a great idea, and maybe karaoke (for the kids... right? ;))

Seriously, though, the first Rhino release has been out of print for years, and fetches a good amount on ebay, from what I see. Plus, do a quick google search and hopefully Shout! will see there STILL exists a fan community for JEM. That's pretty impressive, given that it hasn't been in re-runs for awhile. I mean, there's a Jem-Con! And check out YouTube for the Jem "performance" at San Diego ComicCon last year.

They should also market to the Hannah-Montana and High School Musical crowd. I mean, Jem was the singer with a secret identity LONG before Hannah Montana came along! The music angle is so hot with young kids and tweens, I bet there might be some crossover appeal.

Jem still has a huge fan base.  I would be thrilled to have a complete and great DVD set of this show. 

We're in a time where the world needs many more moral filled television shows available for viewing and purchase such as Jem.

This Classic Show has been "in limbo" but certainly not forgotten.  Speaking as a fan and collector, I implore you to bring this show back and make it once again available to the fans.

Cheers to Jem's upcoming Silver Anniversary and wishes for 25 more "Truly Outrageous" years of Jem!

RE: I want my JemTV! JEM and the Holograms!

I agree with everyone else I want ALL of JEM on DVD.  I am a fan of cartoons/anime in general and have bought several series from mostly from the '80s.  I even have Shout Factory's "Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors".  When's the rest of that coming out? 

I would like to see a separate CD of ALL the music from the JEM series.  Lots of the people who worked on the JEM series are active in the fan community and I'm sure would love to contribute.  Another great feature would be interviews with the writers, voice actors, song writers, and artists who worked on the show. 

A couple of suggestions for other shows to release:  Spiderman and His Amazing Friends and Exosquad.

I would also love to see Susan Blu do commentary, as well as Anne Bryant, Ford Kinder, Samantha Newark, Britta Phillips, and many many more! They are all around and I'm sure they would LOVE to do commentaries for such an incredible show!

PLEASE SHOUT! I love your stuff! I own a bunch of your DVD's, and this would certainly be the next one on my list!

I also would like to see Karaoke Tracks, Mp3s, Artwork, Jem Bible, JemCon, Advertisements, Heck why not contact fans about their favorite episodes, and see if they would do commentaries. lol I want Jem to be given her Due!

Thank you~!

I really want the series back on DVD ENTIRELY! Rhino failed in releasing the series, so I really hope the folks at Shout! can do a proper release. I hope they span the total 65 series in 2 volumes with lotsa extras, like interviews, toy commercials, PSA's, etc etc. a .
Some improvements? Yep defenately: better artwork (rather than Rhino) on the dvd case and dvd's themselves, Stereo play, close-cap. subtitles (English -and maybe even other languages).
I know that the series will be a bestseller, guarenteed!!!
Please read this, Shout! There are a lot of fans out there (me included :) ), who want to get a proper release with all 65 eps. I want to be able to see the reast of the remaining eps. like the Stingers, Astral, Regine, etc. If you folks at Shout! can get G.I. Joe and Transformers (property of Sunbow) back, can you please do the same for Jem (also on Sunbow).
Please , please, PLEASE!!! :)))

Don't forget a DVD set is not complete without Christy Marx, she is the one that took a few names and some dolls and turned them into the most Outrageous! story.

Even people that didn't like it as kid (mostly boys) really appreciate it now. Boys that had to watch because their sisters made them, now admit to loving JEM.

I challenge Shout! Factory to a bonus mission.

The Song “Love’s Not Easy” was aired Nov 16, 1987 in “Renaissance Woman” The song was recorded along with songs that aired in episodes from October 1986 - March 1987.

Your mission if Shout! chooses to accept, found out what episode that song was original intended for, and why it was cut. You may need to get in contact the Jem episode writers and the composers of the Jem songs.

http://www.jemcon.org/messageboard/viewtopic.php?p=27449


The Jem episodes have many songs that are extended, edited, and slightly altered when they were reused in the later shows – what changes could “Love’s Not Easy” have had when it was finally used almost a year later.

Full version of all the Jem song and instrumentals would be a great bonus too//or would be hot seller as a separate CD release.

Can Shout! bring out JEM CDs along with JEM DVDs?

I would love to see CDs with all the songs with the original stereo tracks. I would think the best way to have them, is the order they appeared in the cartoon.
All the instrumental versions -- similar to what came with the dolls, but for all the songs.
Both versions of the Truly Outrageous/Super Sunday and JEM episodes 5205-08 to 5205-12 songs.
It would be cool have any and all non-English versions of the songs.
And it would be great to have the all doll commercial tracks included on CD.
And the background score would be cool too.

RE: I want my JemTV! JEM and the Holograms!
I agree with what everyone here is saying. JemTV should be back on the air waves and if the complete 3 seasons were to be put out on DVD I would most definitely be buying them.  I've already got my complete box sets of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe and She-Ra, Princess of Power DVDs so I'm hoping to be able to get Jem & The Holograms as well. These were my most favourite shows when I was growing up and I wish they be put on TV again. They just don't make cartoons like they used to anymore . I've got all the songs as mp3 files on my pc but I would really, really like to have the cartoons as well so I can watch them whenever I want. By the way, does anyone know where I can find Jem desktop icons as .ico images so I can change icons on my desktop?
