Werewolf

Thank you so much Brian and of course Shout Factory. I never got to see this show when it first aired but heard about it via the internet grapevine and have been clamoring for an official DVD release for years. Thank you so much again I can't wait to see this show and I know the special features will be incredible.

I will buy this opening day and will hopefully convice others to do the same

RE: Werewolf DVD - Thank You So Much
wasn't sure where to post this....

THANK YOU, SHOUT! for releasing the 1987 series WEREWOLF, which originally aired on Fox!

Now, I have a very important question: When the series aired on the CHILLER network a year ago, they were unable to get the rights to air the pilot and 3 other episodes, due to licensing issues. Music, I'm guessing.

Can you tell us if you've addressed these issues? I mean, the pilot is ESSENTIAL to the set! I'd love to see it again!

Just so you guys don't think I'm crazy, I found the link:
http://boards.nbcuni.com/chillertv/index.php?showtopic=1914

and the quote from the Chiller tv rep: "Now, about that “Werewolf” pilot. We tried moving heaven and earth. We really did. But it’s kind of like when Michael Jordan played for the White Sox. It just wasn’t happening. Licensing issues. So go easy on us in the boards."

and another poster: "Hi Werewolf Fans. Marty here There is some more bad news about the up coming episodes for the series Werewolf. According to the chiller schedule, chiller will not be airing the following episodes. A world of Difference part 1 and 2. and The Unicron. probly more music rights as to the reason these 3 eps will not air. This is not chillers fault, it's those darn leasing licencing rights people saying what episodes can air and not air. I have no doubt these licencing rights people are going to hack this series in the number of episodes chiller is allowed to air."

and another poster: "I noticed 3 popular songs during the Pilot, one of which I can't recall the name. Two being "Future's So Bright(I Gotta Wear Shades)" by Timbuk 3 and the other being "Silent Running(Can You Hear Me?)" by Mike + The Mechanics - of which is an extremely cool scene."
