Hey Shout Factory,

I was the first to complain about season1 of Rhoda  having  edited  episodes and the  bad picture quailty,but season2 of Rhoda is excellent and I've just ordered season3.

Is there any chance of Shout re-releasing Rhoda season1 complete and remastered? and I hope Phyllis with Cloris Leachman is considered for a DVD release. 

Hi Brian

Thanks for the quick reply,I'm in the UK,the amount of people here,who ask where did I get Rhoda on DVD!

I invested in a multi regional DVD player,to enjoy The Mary Tyler Moore Show and Rhoda.

If you released Rhoda on region2 format in the UK,it would sell very well.

WTF!? Why does Rhoda have to go to (the cursed) Shout! Select? I live in Thunder Bay Ontario and the sales of Rhoda have been great (especially for a small town). That's a huge bummer, I loved having the convience of going to Wal Mart and getting them or going to HMV and placing a "special order" in for it. Is Shout! going to turn into a Shout! Select DVD store now? Seems everything is going to that. I was always surprised that MPI never went to MOD DVDs for I never thought their DVDs sold that well (I did buy EVERY Lucy, Doris realease they put out tho :p) Oh well tho, I guess I won't get to see Rhoda Season 4 or 5.

Hello Brian,

Why is Shout! not planning to sell Rhoda - Season 4 in stores ??? I mean, there are only 2 seasons left, why are they choosing to sell via Shout! Select !! I'm getting frustrated with this online shopping, now record stores are slowly closing their doors because of digital downloading!! It doesn't make any sense! This has nothing to do with technology, it's just a lazy, fat-ass world sitting at their computers 24/7 and downloading and ordering online!! And not everybody has a credit card to order online ! Whatever happened to giving consumers a second option ?? It's a drag to order online, because you have to wait a few days or even a week before you receive the item, and whereas it just takes you 5 minutes to go to the store and purchase it! I don't understand this world anymore!!

Considering how easy it is to buy things via the web now (generally speaking), I'm not surprised the brick-n-mortar outfits are passing on this stuff. What does surprise me is that they still stock as much as they do, but that's probably a subject for a different thread.

I'm thoroughly enjoying the S3 set. It's like I've either died and gone to HD Transfer Heaven, or maybe it's like finally slipping on a pair of prescription glasses after having spent years living with blurred vision.  Until watching it on disc 1, I never realized that David Groh's eyes became increasingly red during the "I'm outta here" scenes in that first episode ("The Separation").  And for the first time ever, I noticed some nuances to Nancy Walker's performance in the final two scenes as well.  It's been several years since I watched that episode and actually got choked up.
It would seem that a sharper, more crisp picture does make a world of diffference.
SO FREAKIN' COOL!

Thanks again for popping these disc sets out with the revised approach.

So no surprise unedited versions on the one-disc?  One day hopefully...

Extras were asked about, and I forgot if I asked this, but any chance we'll see the Carlton the Doorman cartoon on S4 or 5?  (I guess Fox has it too as part of the MTM library?  Or does it belong to whatever animation studio did it?  Anyway, since S5 is truncated, there'd be lots of room for the cartoon, no?)
