Member since: 2/11/2009 | | Jake 2.0 | This show ran on UPN in 2003-2004 and one of the writers of "The Middleman" actually wrote for this show as well. It also starred Christopher Gorham (Recent star of "Hapers Island" and "Ugly Betty) which would work as a great way to help sell sets. Keegan Connor Tracy was also a recurring charecter on Battlestar Galactica. The show ran for 16 episodes and the show "Chuck" is very similar to it.
Thank you very much for taking a look at this. |

Were we wrong? Post here.

Member since: 2/11/2009 | | RE: Jake 2.0 | Their is still a large fan base for Jake 2.0 and I just posted on several forums to raise knowledge of the possibility of Shout Factory being interested in it.
And as I said, two of the show stars are in very popular shows so this will very much help sales of sets, but only for so long, so now would be the best time. |

Member since: 1/29/2007 | | RE: Jake 2.0 | I'm surprised to hear that Brian, especially considering that "Jake 2.0" is ranked #45 on TVShowsOnDVD with 1,691 votes. ;)
I'm dying to see a music-intact complete series set from Shout.

Here are actually pictures from the campaign to get it on DVD.

Member since: 11/6/2009 | | RE: Jake 2.0 | | Oh yeah, I would totally buy this. I remember it airing really late at night on a local channel (I think that channel must have played UPN shows after a certain time) and I would stay up much later than I should've so I could watch it. I've been periodically checking to see if it's been made available on DVD. My tv-on-dvd collection will never be complete without Jake 2.0! |
