Young Americans
Anyone remember the 8-episode summer series from WB? SO GREAT!

RE: Young Americans
I agree!  It starred Ian Somerhalder, Kate Bosworth and Mark Famiglietti.  It's a shame the show didn't last.  Not sure if having only eight episodes that it will ever make it to DVD, but I guess anything is possible if enough people out there are willing to purchase the set.

RE: Young Americans
I just recently checked TV Shows on DVD and found that Young Americans is ranked as the 63rd (which is very good) TV series people would like to have released on DVD.  It's great that a series that only lasted a few months made such an impact that it's a sought after show to be released on DVD.  It's too bad the network cancelled it so early.  I wonder what the reason for this was.  Low ratings?  A bit of an oxymoron, considering the numerous people who want those 8 episodes on DVD.  What does Brian Ward and Shout! think about the numbers?  Is it worth putting maybe a two-disc set together?

I loved this show and it also starred the L Word's Shane (Katherine Moennig) who is about to star in the new show Three Rivers.

RE: Young Americans
Two stars of this short-lived series are currently starring on two new shows that premiered this fall.  Katherine Moennig on Three Rivers and Ian Somerhalder on The Vampire Diaries. With their current shows doing well, I think Shout! Factory should acquire the license from Sony and release this on DVD.  It was only 8 episodes, but it ranks very high with people on the TVShowsOnDVD website.
